Hi, just to clarify some points here:
During transmission, there is always enough isolation to prevent damage. Just use an antenna on the TX/RX port. Do not connect an antenna to the RX2 port. In this case it is always safe to operate a USRP? In case I use GNU Radio and I just use the stream source and sink. (aka 'UHD: USRP Sink' for transmission and 'UHD: USRP Source' for reception) I want continuous reception but only burst transmission. Both source and sink are configured to use the TX/RX port. I send bursts to the 'UHD: USRP Sink' with a packet length which is translated to SOB and EOB tags for the USRP. - Does the USRP do the switching at the start and end of burst automatically? Or does it switch to reception on RX2 permanently? - Or do I need to use another sink? - Where do I find the logic that takes care of switching? On the host or on the device? I know I've asked similar questions before. I just want to clarify these questions again. Thanks! Cheers Johannes Am 26.02.19 um 19:28 schrieb Marcus D.
