Thanks for the reply , The connection of the hardware( lets say hw) with the radio is as usrp does. Received samples are sent from the FPGA via the FX2 over endpoint 6 using USB bulk transfers. Endpoint 2 is not yet used since we are testing the receiver only. The A/D or VCO are configured by

It's actually reasonably simple to design your own hardware interface. All you need are hw_source_c and hw_sink_c. I designed one for the Nallatech/XtremeDSP from Xilinx. As long as you already have functions to read and write to/from hardware, the blocks are actually very simple.

Hi Eric, I also have got a similar situation. We are building a software defined radio using GNU radio. We have a receiver front end to test and analyze the performance of Wireless sensor nodes at 2.5GHz. The module is similar with USRP but we are studying the differences inorder to integrate t

"Cheetah" - I believe, but someone correct me if this isn't correct: In order to non-USRP hardware to be used with GNU Radio (let's call your new hardware HW), you'll want to create 2 new modules that emulate the API of the USRP's modules: gr-hw and hw. The former is a set of GNU Radio blo

Hi everyone , I am doing a project on GNU Radio. I am working on a different recevier frontend which is not USRP. The GNU Radio seems to intergrate with the usrp. I have installed the radio but i couldnt figure out what i have to change inorder to make it work with other front ends ( not the USRP)
