Hi Rob, I need complex signal. But I tried with a constant, too. I set what you said. But the result has not changed. I changed variables. I tried different setups in the context of what you wrote like lo_offset to 1MHz, 5MHz, bandwidth to 5MHz, 10MHz, master_clock_rate to 20MHz all this combin

Hi Henry, Given that your main issue is that you get different results simply by rotating your antenna 180 degree (and changing nothing else) and that if you use a different transceiver, you get consistent results, I'm not sure that the following will help. But, the following are some things I noti

Addition: I think the problem is about LO leakage. I made 4 different experiment. First, I used just my B200 both receiver and transmitter and a specific location which is the difference between 0 and 180 degree of Horn antenna is 2,5dB. Second, I used just my B210 both receiver and transmitt

I am changing the distance between 1 and 1,5 meter. I usually change gain settings. But I always make 100dB totals. Right now, RX=35, TX=65. I used VNA as a signal generator. I set -20dBm signal in VNA and I ran my SDR as receiver. Actually, the results are satisfactory. SDRs receiver seems okay

Hi Henry, I am unsure if you tried with an "LO offset" or if you just changed your center frequency. Changing the center frequency will not avoid the problems which can occur at the LO frequency. There are two ways you can create a CW signal that is offset from the LO frequency. You can either c

Is it possible that you are using a CW signal with no offset such that the CW signal is right on top of the LO leakage? Perhaps the LO leakage "interference" is causing problems. You could try this experiment with an LO offset. Rob ___ USRP-users mailin
