It sounds like you are encountering frequency offset between your transmitter and receiver. This is caused by differences in the crystals between the two USRPs--up to 20 ppm each in new hardware. At 2.4 GHz, that could be up to 96 KHz in difference between what one is transmitting and the other is tuned to. Frequency offset will cause the received signal to "rotate in phase", so what started out purely in the I channel will be seen in both I and Q, with the magnitude in either one varying as a sine wave at the difference in frequency. Normally, this effect is dealt with using a PLL on the receive side, to adjust the frequency and phase offset to compensate. What type of PLL is dependent on your modulation. -- Johnathan Corgan Corgan Enterprises LLC http://corganenterprises.com _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
