Hi everyone,
As part of the VLBI[1] backend that I'm making in RFNOC, my first step
is to make a rational resampler. It takes the 100MS/s signal from a
TwinRX, and reduces it to 80MS/s. This can be done with a 5:4 resampler.
In order to make this work, I'm using the axi_rate_change block.
Although the block works in simulation, I keep running into problems
with the GRC integration, in particular SWIG throwing run-time errors.
The problem seems to be in the way that the arguments (N, M, config) are
passed around, but studying other blocks like the DDC block hasn't
provided the clues for me to get past this hurdle.
The resampler itself does work, which I tested by having it emit zeroes
instead of the 'deleted' samples, and using a 'keen 1 in N' in GRC itself.
At the moment, the block exits in VLBI_swig.py in set_arg:
return _VLBI_swig_resamplerd5x4_sptr_set_arg(self, *args)
RuntimeError: SyntaxError: Parsing Stopped at: $N, 5)
If you're familiar with RFNOC, can you please have a look at:
http://www.jive.nl/~boven/rfnoc-VLBI
It contains the source, and also a compiled bitfile for the X310 for
your convenience (but use at your own risk, of course).
Regards, Paul Boven.
