Excuse me for not understanding everything, but there seem to be a lack of
comprehension coming from me.

1- Where is your "625 kHz" coming from ?

2- The links I provided are only the reference where I took the information
for trying to build things up. I didn't include the link where it specifies
the RRC and I don't have it with me now.* I will feed it tomorrow*.

3rd and most IMPORTANT ! Keep in mind I've never touched an USRP in my life
before nor do I have skills in digital radio design. I know that it's a big
project for someone as newbie as me, but we gotta learn somewhere. Now if
you agree with me, instead of replying to numerous e-mails that in my
opinion tend to give less useful info and more opinion on what's good or
what's not good, would it be possible to start from the beginning with the
parameters I have ? Does someone has ever done CPFSK and understands it ? I
don't mean offense to anyone but people on forums tend to give more their
opinion and it doesn't help me at all. I want to understand what's behind
the wheel.

USRP N210/WBX daughtercard

baud rate = 1.041667 Mbps
sample rate = 6.25 Msps
sample/symbol for CPFSK mod = 6
modulation index (k) = 0.6
center frequency = 978MHz
delta F for CPFSK = +- 312.5 kHz
roll-off factor for the Root Raised Cosine filter = 0.5

data is encoded using Reed-Solomon

thank you

Olivier
