Think about this.

The signal transmitted at USRP TX is

Then after transmission, received at USRP RX is
[image: image.png]

Here, ignore the Doppler shift, and just consider the phase change due to
the transmission distance,
I know due to the wavelength, the phase received might be mod 2*pi,
however, how can we get the received below in USRP?

Should we use analog signals to get the phase offset? or After ADC?

Thx
