RE: [Discuss-gnuradio] USRP vs alternatives

You will need a soundcard and then you set up an stereo source. I/Q at baseband is delivered. There is no softrock interface in gnuradio because there is no hardware to control. It delivers a 100 kHz or so and this is centered on the crystal frequency on the softrock. In

2008-09-26 Thread Richard Jaeger
I had a question along the same line. Has anyone written code for other sources that can be used in place of the usrp as the input source (besides the relatively low speed computer sound interfaces)? For example to replace self.u = usrp.source_c() with reference to some alternate high

[Discuss-gnuradio] calculaiton of bandwidth for USRP

2008-09-26 Thread Bill Stevenson
Hello all! I wanna make sure the way to calculate the transmission bandwidth for USRP system. As we know, the bitrate could be obtained based on bitrate=128/m/k, where m is the interpolation rate and k is the samples per symbol(suppose we use bpsk modulation), once we get bitrate, how to get

Hello, everybody! I am working on the demo file: gnuradio-examples/python/digital/benchmark_tx.py. In the file transmit_path.py, it is said specify bitrate. samples-per-symbol and interp/decim will be derived. How are interp/decim rate and samples-per-symbol derived respectively? what is the

Thank you, Brian! Now i know how the interpolation changes, but if bitrate were set, how are interp/decim rate and samples-per-symbol derived respectively? Is there a default value for interpolation rate? Thanks!!! Bill - Original Message From: Brian Padalino [EMAIL PROTECTED] To:

Paul, you rock Changing the decimation factor (-n) to a bigger value (the default value is 1) works like a charm and solves all my GUI freeze issues, even within VMware. I started with -n 100 (as you suggested) for usrp_oscope.py, but it is too much and the refresh rate is very slow. Then I

Hello Teka, What OS/platform are you using? What is the value of your PYTHONPATH environment variable? Also, check that when you compiled GNU Radio, the USRP module was not discarded. Regards, -- Raul Siles www.raulsiles.com On Sat, Sep 27, 2008 at 12:58 AM, teka yemane [EMAIL PROTECTED]
