Hey Guys, I wrote a blind turbo equaliser for LDPC encoded data a few years ago in GNU Radio, the code is probably pretty horrific, and it wasn't optimised very well, but it worked as a proof on concept, I could dig out the code if anyone was interested? John On Sat, Mar 1, 2014 at 10:33 AM, Ja

[Discuss-gnuradio] Addding enums to custom processing blocks

Hi, What's the process by which enums are added to the Python namespace via SWIG in gnuradio? I mean in gr_firdes, the following are added to the gr.firdes namespace in Python: enum win_type { WIN_HAMMING = 0,// max attenuation 53 dB WIN_HANN = 1,// max attenuation 44 dB WIN

[Discuss-gnuradio] Static compilation of GNU radio

Hey guys, I wonder whether anyone has done this before/can help me out. I'm looking to compile GNURadio with all static libraries, so that there are zero .so dependencies. I've been playing around with CMake, but it looks like the linker order is wrong for compiling against static libraries: What

Hi Ed, I've been doing the same recently with gnuradio-3.4 on ubuntu 12.04 x64, So I'm guessing it's pretty similar. Anyway, copying and pasting some notes I made which should hopefully help you, there were a few little horrors in there! NB The boost version is probably not that important so lon

[Discuss-gnuradio] 4x RX chains on USRP1 with DBSRX2

2013-02-12 Thread John Wilson
Hi, I'm wondering whether it's possible/how to use a USRP1 with 2x DBSRX boards to generate 4 separate streams via the 4rx usrp1 firmware. The required channels will be within the front end bandwidth of the DBSRX2. At the moment I'm using a subdev spec of 'A:0 A:0 B:0 B:0' which I assume runs the

Hey, You can't make a feedback system in the Python flowgraph. You can, however use feedback in an individual signal processing block. If you need to use a PLL look at the Costas loop block which locks to RF signals with complex baseband components eg. QPSK, SSB etc. John On Mon, Aug 2, 2010 at

Hello, I've got a problem with the FIR filters in GNU radio. Basically, at the moment I'm using it as a platform to run some simulations on (as I've already written a load of code on it for implementing a digital radio), and one of the tests I'm doing is trying to find the BER through an equaliser
