Hi Rickard, have you perused the mailing list archives? I remember a discussion about this maybe two years ago. IIRC, the bottom line was that no, gr_sounder is not really useful. In particular, it has no means of synchronisation and therefore the result is too noіsy to be useful. MB On Wed, J

[Discuss-gnuradio] Problem wiht peek32 method

2011-06-15 Thread Eduardo Lloret Fuentes
Hello! I am working with USRP2 under Ubuntu 10.10 with the GNU Radio driver. I was successful adding some setting registers to the FPGA code and configuring them with the poke32 method (class usrp2_source_32fc_sptr, module usrp2). What I am not able to perform is a reading of this setting registe

Yes, I have read thoroughly every discussion there is in this list and elsewhere. It is true that there is no synchronization implemented resulting in that the location of the CIR-peaks will not stay put within the PN-sequence period but "rolls" (corresponding to the clock mismatch). However,

Tiago, It is very hard to help you. You are basically saying "we did something different and it doesn't work." You haven't posted code, you're using an old version of GNU Radio, and not using the latest drivers (UHD). This all makes it hard to help you. If the FPGA is asserting have_pkt_rdy, t
