Hi Andy,  first of all, thanks for you reply. I'd start simple. Use the lastest gnuradio with the fixed gr-zeromq  blocks. Just put in 1 PUSH/PULL pair; not the 4 or 6 pairs you have  now.  The version installed in the machines is the 3.7.9.  As for the number of pairs, even if I use the original

Hello, The question is about how does the given Doppler shift progress, or how is the Doppler induced phase shift implemented. I select a simple frequency selective fading block and feed in it some gr_complex(1, 0) values. For simplicity I run one fader (num of sinusoids). in file: https://git

Simone, first of all, FIFOs of this sort already exist (both on the device and in host, in form of the buffer between the upstream block and the USRP block). Now, if you're SW is too slow, your FIFO will always run out of samples and eventually you'll have U's again. This can only help to avoid t

Maicon, just checking here: Do you understand the full design of the rx_ofdm and tx_ofdm flow graphs? Also, you never want to limit the number of items. The Random Source does not get prioritized, it simply will produce data until its output buffer is filled. Because there can never be more data c

Hi, (I was not in the mailing list for a long time) yes, you are right. d_m is incrementation or index after initialization, which is correct thing there. Yes, as you also said that is per sample. cos(alpha_n) is constant there, I checked that. cos table looks like just cosine values, which mus

Hello, I am just starting to get into the world of SDRs, and i have been looking for information about SDRs state of the art, and this is when i found GNURadio and SDRsharp as the top contenders. I know that i am writing to the gnuradio mailing list so i wont talk about its competitors, but can so

Hi Mabel, SDRsharp and GNU Radio are fundamentally different. SDRsharp is a single-purpose application for reception of a single class of signals. GNU Radio is a framework for developing SDR and other DSP applications. You should really read our intro to GNU Radio to get a feeling for things [1]!

Mabel, I am kind of confused as to what you mean by "state of the art". I personally would consider any SDR to be pretty state of the art; it has been around for some years, but it is by no means common place. Being unfamiliar with SDRsharp, a quick google search and read through of their websit

What kind of hardware are you referring to? Generally, the Ettus USRP X3x0 can be connected via a special external PCIe cable through an expresscard adapter, but that's kind of a costly thing if you don't need that much bandwidth. Also, Expresscard carries USB lines, too, and there's many USB sof
