[Discuss-gnuradio] trouble with gr_multiply_const_ff

2013-11-28 Thread atools_cook
Hi all, I'm working on the gen2_reader project and got some trouble with the amp block. We use the gr_multiply_const_ff to amplify the power of signal. amp = gr.multiply_const_ff(amplitude) tx = uhd.usrp_sink(options.args,uhd.io_type.COMPLEX_FLOAT32, num_channels=1,) self.connect(self.rea

Hi Marcus, Thanks for your attention. I have upload a bigger size image below. the x axis is sampling point which reflects time and the y axis is margin which reflects the power. I plot the image from the rx block of the gen2_reader project. The signal is transmitted by the tx block of gen2_reader

Tom, Value of the signal after the multiply_const block is amplitude, We set the amplitude as much as 5000 to increase the transmit power of signal is an advice from the developer of gen2_reader project Michael Buettner, so it would be ok. You said that the UHD transmitter takes signal samples f

Marcus, Thanks for your advice and we do use the "very old" code exactly. Would you please elaborate the "backing things off" things because I can't your point of it. Best Lee -- View this message in context: http://gnuradio.4.n7.nabble.com/trouble-with-gr-multiply-const-ff-tp45018p45039.htm

lan I have done some research work. The input values of uhd should be -1<=x<1, and the gr_multiply_const_ff block has set the default amplitude to 1, so this block seems useless. The only way I found to scale the power of signal we transmit is to enhance the gain of usrp_sink. However, we use RF
