Correction: The thing I mentioned about all taps being phase shifted by the 
same amount isn't always observed.


I tried it again with the same USRP, (and 2 USRPs with a MIMO) and I still get 
different channels every time I start the flow graph.


Identifying multiple taps: the channel estimate I get has >1 coefficient that 
is significantly greater than a noise like value.  Figure attached. Shows only 
abs(chan).


Thank you,


AB

Hi AB,

I suppose you are using 2 USRPs, right? Each USRP has its own clock. These 
clocks have different phases. That's why you see a phase offset.

As for the multi-tap channel, how do you identify it?

Not sure how LTE eliminates the phase offset. But in my communication program, 
I use preamble for phase estimation, then use costas loop to eliminate the 
offset.

Hope it helps you.

Regards,
Edwin

Hello everyone,


I have a setup that records the channel between a tx and rx while they are 
connected by a wire. However I've noticed that while the channel is constant 
over one run, when I restart the code/flow graph I get a different (but still 
constant) channel.


Can anyone shed some light on why this is happening?


Also, I'm observing a multi-tap channel even on a wired connection. That seems 
suspicious to me. I've however verified that my estimation code is correct 
based on simulations. I'm using an N210 with a WBX board.


Lastly, does LTE do anything to force the same offset or eliminate random 
offsets at the transmitting node?


I searched the srsLTE github repo and found some variable 
tx_corr_dc_phase/gain, that suggests a fix, but I'd like some more inputs on 
this.
