[USRP-users] E310 receive architecture

2018-12-04 Thread Ramazan Çetin via USRP-users
Hello all, I am trying to understand what is going on while receiving RF data in USRP E310. I am using gnuradio in programming of USRP E310. I investigated AD9361 chip and the baseband data rate of AD9361 is maximum of 61.44MHz. So this is equal to master clock rate as i understood. For exam

oh wow, that's interesting, though I have little idea how to reconciliate storage backpressure with dropping out of networking. My best guess is that the storage system pushing back on too much data somehow causes additional CPU load (especially: interrupts/context switches), and that worsens the s

[USRP-users] synchronizing multiple USRP N310

2018-12-04 Thread Florian Kaltenberger via USRP-users
Hi there, I just discovered that in addition to the external 10MHz reference in, the USRP N310 also has external local oscilator inputs, one for each daughterboard and each TX/RX. So does that mean that in order to synchronize multiple N310 in frequency, phase, and time, it is no longer suffi

[USRP-users] X310's sample rate

I have a X310 with a pair of CBX-130s installed and am running RFNoC. The flowraph looks like this: Radio (running at 200MHz) -> DDC (200MHz down to 50MHz) -> splitter -> off to some other blocks. What is weird to me is that I wasn't thinking and I set the sample_rate to to be the master

Hi Neel, I am stuck as usrp 2954 R has gone for repair. As I said earlier I was using gnuradio in windows but now I am switching to Ubuntu. What is the latest stable UHD version? Do you mean to run rx_samples_to_file in two separate threads? Or how can I use that to receive from 2 antennas? R

Hi Koyel, if you install Ubuntu 18.10 (which you really should if you want to use newest versions of software), you'll get UHD 3.12.0.0 as built from Ubuntu. That should be recent enough for you to use with the TwinRX. If you use Ubuntu 18.04, you only get UHD 3.10, and that's a bad choice for thi

I have not used the Basic Rx before, but my expectation is that the subdev spec for your use case should be: "A:A A:B B:A B:B". If that causes an error, then I don't know what the subdev should be. Rob On Mon, Dec 3, 2018 at 11:51 AM Gwenhael Goavec-Merou via USRP-users < usrp-users@lists.ettus.c

[USRP-users] DC offset calibration on X310

Does the X310 have any real-time DC offset calibration? I am aware of the separate calibration procedure and resulting CSV file which provides a lookup for the correction at a given frequency. But, this is a fixed correction as opposed to a dynamic one. I am seeing a large LO leakage signal at t

rx_samples_to_file is generic for many USRPs, but should work for the specific case of the TwinRx. Same goes for rx_mult_samples. There is also a specific twinrx_freq_hopping example you could look at. Rob On Tue, Dec 4, 2018 at 12:30 AM Koyel Das (Vehere) via USRP-users < usrp-users@lists.ettu

Hi Marcus and Robin, thanks for your answers, this is helpful information. I should add, that I actually tried the synchronization with an octoclock (10MHz + PPS), but it did not give me the expected results, i.e., I saw some residual frequency offsets. But maybe I screwed up at some point. Le
