Dear, Sylvain Munaut, Thanks.I got a hint from your answer. What about using moving average instead LPF? I think moving average (MA) is much simpler than LPF if computational cost is considered. But, another issue is, precision on estimation A and A/2. In that case, LPF would be better. Anyway,

It'll be under /usr/local/lib{64}/uhd/examples I looked at their blurb on that drive, and its *sustained* rate comes out to about 69Mbyte/second. Sure, it'll take bursts at screaming-fast rates, because, like the Linux kernel, it has a whacking great write-behind buffer. Try specifying a fil

The sequential rates I gave are the published rates for the SSD. Maybe (probably?) specsmanship, sure. But since it does mostly keep up, isn't this a case of just needing the correct buffer set-up to allow it to ride through the worst of the hiccups? I am going to have to find and figure out how t

For the record and completeness I tried again with just the complex int16 USRP Source and File Sink, setting "Unbuffered = off", and it still bahaved the same. It may matter but it is not enough to make a noticeable difference in this case. - John On Thu, May 7, 2015 at 2:27 PM, wrote: > Leave

Hi Marcus, I am using num_recv_frames=512 but I have no idea why 512 or what the ideal value should be for a system that has a lion's share of 16 GB of RAM to burn. In terms of the disk hardware sequential writes are up to 520 MBytes/sec. While there may still be some moments where things fall beh

Leave "unbuffered" = OFF. This flag was added for "slow" file-sinks, when, for example, you're writing slow data to an external process via somehthing like FIFO, and you don't want the default stdio buffering to get in the way. The default, if you leave it off, is to use stdio buffering. The "

Yes I agree. If it is the case that the Packet Header Parser does not output a message for every header it is given, would that produce the "backup" behavior I'm seeing?

If you want high file-write performance, leave it in buffered mode. Also, a 175-tap filter, running at 16Msps is going to chew up a lot of CPU. How about a simple low-pass filter, decim=2? Make the transition bandwidth fairly sloppy. On 2015-05-07 12:48, Murphy, John wrote: > How would I
