[Discuss-gnuradio] could you give me tips for saving ofdm data? and interpolation?

2008-09-10 Thread James Park
Hi,

I was able to get the data using file_sink with benchmark_ofdm_tx.py

self.file_sink = gr.file_sink(gr.sizeof_gr_complex, filename.dat)
self.connect(sef.txpath, self.file_sink)

and could see frequency spectrum using fft and fftshift in matlab.

also, I extended receive_path.py with file_sink, but data did not look match
with transmit data.
Could you give me tips for that?

if I want to calculate the exact real time, can I divide x value by 64M and
interpolation value?
Thank you for your help.

[Discuss-gnuradio] RFX2400+USRP buffers

2008-09-10 Thread kaleem ahmad

Hello everyone,

I am trying to implement a simple FSK system to measure bit error rate
(BER), and packet loss rate (PLR) using:

1-Linux
2-USRP motherboard
3-RFX2400 daughter card

I want to implement an echo back system where one Transceiver (say Master)
will transmit a small frame (let say 48 byte, and important thing is that I
neccessarily need small payload) to other transceiver (say Slave). The Salve
returns the frame immediatelly without any processing to Master  and Master
measures BER and PLR.

The problem which I am facing is that I am unable to transmitt such small
packets. I have noticed that if I have a large file with let say few Kbytes
contents then it is transmitted (partially, the end of file is always
missing...I guess it is stuck somewhere in buffer) but if I have such
small packets as I metioned earlier then most of the time the packets are
lost. If the packet is received then it is totally corrupt (say almost 100%
BER) unlike large files which are received in very good quality (But
important and notable point is that even the large files are 100% courrupt
at the end). This makes me wonder why last few hundered bytes are always
courrupt??? (for small file the whole file lies in that category of last few
hundered bytes)

I have tried a lot but unable to solve the problem! Now can any one help me
to understand what can be the problem? Is it somewhere in the buffers? Is it
some sort of synchronization problem??? and which buffers (of
USRP/RFX2400/GNURadio) are involved in such flowgraph. The flow graph with
actual names of blocks used by me is given below (I have attached complete
code if some one want to have a look):

Transmit path flowgraph:

gr.file_source - gr.simple_framer - gr.bytes_to_syms -
gr.interp_fir_filter_fff - gr.frequency_modulator_fc -
gr.multiply_const_cc - usrp.source_c

Receive path flowgraph:

usrp.source_c - gr.fir_filter_ccf - gr.quadrature_demod_cf -
simple_correlator - gr.file_sink

[Discuss-gnuradio] Important: New trunk dependency: GSL

2008-09-10 Thread Eric Blossom

I'll be adding the GNU Scientific Library (GSL) as a new dependency
on the trunk.  GSL is a huge numerical library that's been under
active development for more than 10 years:

  http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl



Fedora, Debian and Ubuntu all package it.

Under Fedora the relevant packages are: gsl-devel gsl pygsl:

  $ sudo yum install gsl-devel gsl pygsl


I'm not exactly sure of the package names under Debian or Ubuntu.
Could someone who knows please let us know and update the Debian and
Ubuntu build pages on the wiki?  I'll update the Fedora page.

gsl-1.11 is the latest, but it looks like gsl-1.10 is what's widely
distributed.  1.10 should be fine.

Thanks!
Eric

At this instant nothing uses it.

There are some wavelet blocks and polyphase filtering coming soon that need it.
Today's msg was the advanced warning.

If this turns out to be a pain, we could probably make it optional,
but then we'd need (even more) conditional build stuff.

Thanks for the warning. I'm not terribly unhappy with gsl, except that
for good performance on the OMAP3 I'd have to look into the guts to
add NEON specific routines and my todo list grows without limit :(

 If this turns out to be a pain, we could probably make it optional,
 but then we'd need (even more) conditional build stuff.

Have you ever thought about creating a structure to build sets of
blocks outside the main source tree? Having this structure in place
would be a big help for outside developers also.

Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Important: New trunk dependency: GSL

2008-09-10 Thread Robert McGwier
In gnuradio-core,  there will be new filter bank technology introduced
that will use gsl to accomplish the debauchery of the indices in
compact readable form.  We are about to use gsl to compute discrete
wavelet transforms.  There are others but these suffice.

One could always replace the underlying routines with local ones that
are not bound to gsl.

The simple facts are that gnuradio cannot be all things to all people.
 It might come closer than almost anything else but it cannot run
without modification on all computing equipment from dspPic's to
Vertex 5's to Cell to x86_64 to OMAP3XXX !

I really like the OMAP with its ARM9, TI DSP chip and Neon SIMD math
chip and OpenGL acceleration hardware.  It is a worthy target of
effort.

[Discuss-gnuradio] how can I distinguish the first subcarrier in the ofdm spectrum with matlab?

hi,

I got data from benchmark_ofdm_tx.py and am looking at the data with matlab.
however, it is now easy to distinguish each subcarrier after fft.
I can see frequency spectrum but it's not clear which one is first
subcarrier.
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
 
I'm totally new to gnu radio and it is required for me to do a final year 
project on using the usrp as a base station to send and receive gsm signals. i 
would like to check, in order to use the USRP as a base station, is it really 
possible? as there are no such products right now in the market. 
 
are there any special handsets that are available in the market that is able to 
communicate with the usrp?
 
thanks for your help!

[Discuss-gnuradio] Reading carrier frequency

2008-09-10 Thread Gnu Radio Explorer
Hi,
I am new to GNU radio and want to experiment. From the mailing lists, I
understood that the carrier frequency offsets change over time but that
those offsets are within +/- 20ppm of the center frequency. Suppose I use
two USRP boards; one for transmission and another for reception of signals.
I want to know how I can read the carrier frequency of  the transmitted
signal on the receiver side through a python or C++ program. Is there any
program to do this? Or, which library routine can I use for this purpose?

Appreciate any kind of help you may provide on this.

Thanks.

G.
