Hello Swapna, The SNR in wireless channel cannot be measured but it can be "estimated". One way to do that for constant envelope modulation such as PSK is by measuring the variance in the received signal envelope. Ideally you should receive a constant stable envelope of your signal. However, du

I am sorry if my previous mail was confusing. I am trying to switch toa different Rx freq depending on a control information. Even though I exit from rx_callback and try to call a new script for Rx using os.system I get an error message saying USB _claim_interface :failed interface 2 Device or res

Eric, Thank You. os.system() worked. I can now switch between different scripts while in transmitting mode. To all, While receiving data (using a modification of benchmark_rx.py) I need to receive at a different frequency depending on some control information . I get an error message while attem
