Hi Eric, I did new test today, and you were right. I had a lot of underrun. Therefore, I increase fusb_nbloccks to 8 and fusb_block_size to 2048. Even with this setting, I got some underruns, but they were not often at all. Here are the new numbers (for the code in trunk): Decimation, Nice, Real_

I use the outb command to change the parallel port. From what I read, that command should have a delay of around 1 \mu s, not more. I am not sure about the context switches, but I am almost sure that this is not the problem. I don't run anything else on the machine (i.e., no other heavy load proce

2006-11-13 Thread Thomas Schmid
I am currently investigating different USRP delays. Some of them I can explain, others not. For example, I see an average delay of 6.2ms while receiving data from the USRP at a sample rate of 8MHz (short real samples, i.e. I am using the usrp.source_s). Here is my setup: - I have a function genera
