Sorry I meant 2954 R. Does it also have LO sharing or that is not required in that?


Regards,

That model is based on the UBX transceiver card, which doesn't have LO sharing, but using timed commands can cause the two
  synthesizers to come into phase alignment.

Do you mean the reference clock on the board? They all share that, but each channel has its own LO synthesizer.

I'm not familiar with the 2964R, so can't personally comment on it.

You can achieve 4-channel phase coherence with the TwinRx--see the APP Note here:

Are RX1 and RX2 of RF0 controlled by same master oscillator? Will connecting two antennas to RX1 and RX2 of RF0, rather than to RX1 of RF0 and to RX1 of RF1, give same phase difference between these two channels at every run?
All channels have their own LO.

The TwinRx has LO sharing mode.

Hi,


I am using USRP 2955 R and I have connected an antenna to one end of a two channel splitter and connected the other two ports of the splitter to the two RX1 pors of USRP. I am getting different phase difference in each run of USRP though in one particular run the phase difference is constant for all channels. The tuned frequency is 2.4 GHz and sampling rate is 1 MSps so as expected that channel phase differences are almost same. But when I stop acquiring data and restart it using gnuradio or the API, then I am getting again a new value of phase difference across all channels, which is again same across channels. Is USRP so unstable that it gives different value of phase difference for each run for the same frequency, and sampling rate? The setup in the runs are also the same.


Regards,

Koyel

/This isn't about "instability". It's about the way PLL synthesizers work, and the fact that by default each channel is using its own synthesizer.

There are a few things that need to happen:

All the channels you're receiving need to be in the same multi_usrp block, which, among other things, is a conceptual "synchronization domain".

Use timed-commands for tuning (which is a bit awkward to arrange in Gnu Radio, you'll have to modify the generated code). This will arrange for the synthesizers to be given a "resynch" signal at exactly the same time.

   OR

Use the "shared LO" features of the TwinRX cards that are on the 2955.
