http://www.sbrac.org/files/ssb_xmitter.grc It's not actually connected to USRP2, but to an FFT sink, but it samples at 200KHz, so one could easily replace that FFT block with an USRP2 block. It uses an audio source sampled at 20KHz, and then uses a bandpass filter after interpolating up to 200KHz to pick off either the upper or lower side-bands, which are limited to a roughly 2.7KHz bandwidth: LSB: -3KHz to -300Hz and USB: 300Hz to 3KHz. Audio and baseband signal levels will need to be adjusted, etc, but it's a good starting point. It uses a "0Hz carrier", which happens to work perfectly when you're dealing with a complex baseband signal. -- Principal Investigator Shirleys Bay Radio Astronomy Consortium http://www.sbrac.org _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
