Hi all- I am relatively new to the list but I have been reading and watching since 2005. Only recently have I been able to start using GNU radio to do any "serious" work here at Mitre. The biggest issue that everyone here complains of is documentation, so seeing the topic come up I had to put my

more two cents I love Matlab and I use it every day but there is a time and a place for it and it is not as an computational engine for a software defined radio. Signal processing for an SDR is just not the right use for it. It just can't keep up. If you were generating complied code in simulink f

I could be wrong but I believe that block can work with a complex input or a real input. For the case of GMSK/MSK it should work on a real signal derived from the change in phase of the IQ(use gr_quadrature_demod_cf) not the IQ itself as is the case in regular QPSK. I believe the GMSK demo shows th

While we are on the topic of clock recovery and someone more knowledgeable than me is reading :) I would like to pose a question to Bob. How might one do clock recovery on a M-ary CPM signal? It sounds like a ML sequence technique might be an option but is there a simpler ad-hoc technique that work

Steven- Did you actually find that the decision threshold needs to be biased? I actually implemented the 2 bit differential detector on a custom asic that was targeted at streaming audio(in 2004) and during the simulations I found that moving the bias point did very little for performance. Maybe i

I agree with Steven, while there are definitely more "optimal" solutions like MLSE they don't always make sense for every application. GSM phones and the like have dedicated DSP resources to run a Viterbi algorithm but is this doable on the typical gnu users computer? I will defer to the experts on
