Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Problem installing gnuradio on beagle

2009-06-14 Thread Woody Dickson
Hi,

I first do a bitbake base-image, and then I put the uImage and the bz to
beagleboard.

Then, I do bitbake gnuradio and then copy all the relevant .ipk files to the
beagleboard.

The beagleboard is not connected to the network.  I just copied the file to
the SD cards directly.

I do see a bunch of  python-*.ipk files in the /tmp dir.  Should I be
copying those python-*.ipk to beaglebaord and then run "ipk install" for
each python ipk?

Thanks,
Woody

[Discuss-gnuradio] usrp overheat?

2009-05-25 Thread Woody Dickson
Hi,

Does anyone know how long can USRP stay up?  Can it be run for days?
Is there any risk of it getting overheat since the surface of the
board does seem to be quite hot during normal operation?

When it is not connected to the USB, but the power is still on, does
it automatically go back to low power mode?


Thanks,
Woody

[Discuss-gnuradio] question about BasicTX and BasicRX

2009-05-14 Thread Woody Dickson
Hi,

I would like to conduct an experiment with using BasicTX to send AM/FM
signal ( voice ) and have BasicRX to receive AM/FM signal.

Basically, a way to transmit voice and another way to receive voice
using USRP.

Do I need two USRPs for this task?

If I already have a USRP, is it true that I only need to buy one
BasicTX and one BasicRX only? Or do I need one more USRP in additional
to one that I have?

Also, do I also need to purchase two antenna?

Regards,
Woody

2009-05-12 Thread Woody Dickson
Hi,

I want to use gnuradio and USRP for 1.6MHz to 30MHz, is it possible?
If so, what daughterboard should I be using for USRP?

The other question I have is whether it is possible to have a
mini-usrp board that can be moulded into a somewhat handheld device
size?

The problem is fixed.

After doing "export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig", I can

Hi,

While installing openbts, I am getting the following error:

checking for USRP... configure: error: Package requirements (usrp >
3.1) were not met:

No package 'usrp' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables USRP_CFLAGS
and USRP_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

Does anyone know how to fix it?

Hi Jason,

Thanks for your help.

Does it mean I should burn the  EEPROM myself?

Where can I get the instruction on how to build the EEPROM?

Since I don't see any EEPROM burning instruction from the gnuradio
installation doc.  I just want to confirm the exact steps on that so I
would accidentally destroyed my EEPROM.

Thanks,

Hi,
I have one USRP board and 2 Flex900 boards.  The Flex900 board has
both RX2 and TX/RX.  I installed and screwed both Flex900 boards on
USRP motherboard and make sure all the holds are matched.

On the B side, I have Flex900 card.

What do you think could be the problem?
