Re: [USRP-users] 52MHz replace for N210

2017-07-14 Thread Marcus Müller via USRP-users
Dear Jon, that is technically unlikely to work. All the timings inside the N210 are optimized for a 100 MHz master clock rate, and you can't derive that from 52 MHz directly. Why the 52 MHz clock? As said, everything is tested, optimized and calibrated for 100 MHz only in the N210, so you really

Hi Nate, I have exactly the same problem that was reported in previous threads: I loaded a custom FPGA image, got the USRP 2953R (x310) bricked and then used the JTAG connection with Vivado 2015.4’s Hardware Manager to program the device, however when trying to load an image to flash using the

gr-analysis[1] has specrec, which I use for doing recordings. It does synchronous writes(not sure how that will fare when writing to USB), in multiple threads. You could at least check out its source for any further ideas. [1] https://github.com/garverp/gr-analysis On Jul 14, 2017 10:38 AM, "Brai

Re: [USRP-users] does an RFNoC block HAVE to have an input and an output?

Good call Jonathon, I forget that you guys wrote up a siggen block, that will be great to emulate. In fact I attempted to make a stripped down version that just outputs the sine-wave all the time, but I am not getting any output. Looking at the debug that scrolls across the screen while the p

[USRP-users] Making Antenna Array using SDR

Hi, I am using SDR's (NI/2901) for my experiment.From one end, I am transmitting a signal using Tx//RX port of 1st SDR. While at the other end , I want to receive the same signal using four antenna by connecting them at all the four ports (two Tx/Rx, two Rx) of the 2nd SDR at the same time. B

Hi Konstanitn, I assume you mean you are using VirtualBox, not VMWare. You will need to add a USB Filtering rule for the USRP within the settings for the virtual machine (within VirtualBox settings). You will need to add a rule for VID: 2500 PID: 0020 for the B210. Also, you need replace the

Hello Ozair Iqbal, You can't (without using more SDR transceivers or making major modifications to the hardware). USRP-2901 (USRP B210) is only capable of 2x2 MIMO. You can switch between TX/RX and RX2 ports, but you cannot receive from all antenna ports concurrently (USRPs with switchable daughte

[USRP-users] TwinRX tuning timing

2017-07-14 Thread Eugene Grayver via USRP-users
I am running some experiments to understand the timing of TwinRX tuning. A very simple experiment shows that the tag indicating a frequency change is not placed at the right sample. Here's a capture: The dashed line indicates the tag sample number. However, there's clearly something happening

Re: [USRP-users] TwinRX tuning timing

2017-07-14 Thread Marcus D. Leech via USRP-users
The frequency tag is inserted at some point shortly after the command-set is issued to the hardware. There's no way for the various bits and pieces to tell when the underlying (mostly analog) hardware has converged to an "acceptable" steady-state operating mode. PLL synthesizers don't instantly s

Yes, I definitely agree that there’s no way to tell when the tuning is DONE. However, my question was about the ‘shortly after’ part. Should it not be inserted ‘shortly before’, or ‘exactly at’? Since there’s typically no way to look into the future, (yes, of course it is doable), there’s no
