Ok, makes sense. So lets say I scheduled 20 minutes of bursts (1 second period with 50/50 duty cycle) and I started the flowgraph 10 minutes late. With the next_burst policy, could I rely on the USRP to dutifully drop all late bursts? Are the packets dropped in the Ethernet buffer or does

Hi, I've recently been working with a coded CW radar system that just loops over a fairly long IQ vector. It works all fine for a while, but after a few days, the transmission timing has drifted away from where it should be. I'm comparing the leading edge of the transmit waveform with the PPS

L = late packet, there was a time on the packet which was time on device when There are two different cases for late packets happening. The first is that you haven't sent your packet far enough in advance to account for latency variations on the host. Unfortunately, on a general-purpose
