Hi everyone,

I want to do some work in OFDM system on usrp.So I tested benchmark_ofdm_tx.py 
and benchmark_ofdm_rx.py.

HW:USRP-PKG/XCVR2450/VERT2450

SW:ubuntu

Gnuradio: svn trunk


First, I run benchmark_ofdm_tx.py on one computer and observe ofdm spectrum by 
usrp_fft.py on another computer. 

Two usrps are 1 feet away.


./benchmark_ofdm_tx.py �Cf 2.4G --fft-length 64 --occupied �Ctones 52  
--cp-length 16  �Ctx-amplitude 200

./ursp_fft.py �Cf 2.4G 



But the spectrum is not flat in transmit bandwidth, one spike always appears 
around the center frequency. (changing center freq don't work)



When I set the --tx-amplitude 3000, the spike almost have as the same power as 
other carriers. 



 When the usrp transmission finished ,only ground noise in spectrum and no 
obvious high power noise in the center frequency. 



Anyone know the problem is?





Second, I run benchmark_ofdm_tx.py on one computer and benchmark_ofdm_rx.py on 
another computer



./benchmark_ofdm_tx.py �Cf 2.4G --fft-length 64 --occupied �Ctones 52  
--cp-length 16  �Ctx-amplitude 200

./benchmark_ofdm_rx.py �Cf 2.4G --fft-length 64 --occupied �Ctones 52  
--cp-length 16  



After  initialization, sometimes nothing will be printed on the screen at 
receiver.( As I expect,

"ok: right pktno: 1  n_rcvd: 1  n_right:1" or something alike will be printed.) 
When the transmiter is stoped,"timeout" will be on the receiver's screen.





Third, if I fixed --fft-length 64 --cp-length 16, some --occupied-tones 
parameters will bring one expcetion .



Exception in thread Tread-1:

Traceback(most recent call last)

   File "/usr/lib/python2.5/threading.py, line 486,in _bootstrap_inner 
self.run():

    File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gnuradio/blks2impl/ofdm.py, line 
294, in run self.callback(ok,payload)

File "./benchmark_ofdm_rx.py",line 168, in line 
rx_callback(pkton,)=struct.unpack('!H',payload[0:2])

File "/usr/lib/python2.5/struct.py,line 87,in unpack return.o.unpack(s)

errror:unpack requuires a string argument of length 2



I check the payload[0:2] value, almost ' ' in that case. Is there something 
wrong in receiver part?
