[Discuss-gnuradio] Transmission time control from python level
I have three USRP's and I want them to transmit a continuous stream of repeated GLFSR source in non-overlapping manner. In other words, each transmitter will transmit the source for 1 second and then pause for 5 seconds. All transmitters will transmit during the 'odd' seconds so that there is a 1 second gap between the sources. This process should continue for ever. Currently, I am controlling the starting and stopping time of the flow graphs to achieve my goals. Unfortunately, the code/flowgraph sometimes hangs after 15-20 starts. I am using the following code: tb = GLFSR_transmitter() # The Tx flowgraph : GLFSR source (float) -- RRC filter -- USRP Sink var = 1 while var == 1: # This process should run forever time.sleep(1-time.time() + int(time.time())) condition = ((int(time.time())%6) == 0) # The transmitter will transmit after every 6 seconds if (condition): print time.time() tb.start() sleep(1) # The transmitter runs for 1 second tb.stop() tb.wait() My USRP's don't seem to like this frequent starting and stopping of flow graphs, especially when I am transmitting at 15-20 MS/s rate. I am using USRP N210 (SBX daughterboards) and the latest gnuradio images. What other things can I do to achieve this timing control? I am looking for options in python level since my C++ OOP background is not strong. Josh talked about some python based blocks ( ttps://github.com/guruofquality/gnuradio/tree/python_blocks2https://github.com/guruofquality/gnuradio/tree/python_blocks2) in (http://old.nabble.com/How-to-implement-a-TDMA-system-td33727749.html). They seem to be merged to the master ( http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/repository/revisions/f8581fb475267e1a97eaab962e423559fb4bfce2) but I can't find the blocks. Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Great work! Connecting any RX/TX to the computer PCI smells problems... I wouldn't cosider this option, Patrik - Original Message - From: ikjtel To: discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org Sent: Saturday, July 07, 2012 16:12 Subject: Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] PCI Express SDR Cards and GNU Radio On Wed.
