Hi Ali,

I have done the similar as a part in my thesis as well. But I used two USRPs
to serve as receiver and transmitter. When u try to listen on a daughter
board using same USRP and transmit simultaneously ( which I tried ) you do
not receive the transmitted signal. I did not dwell much on this because I
had two USRPs to serve as two users. I know that both tramsitter and
receiver programs can be run using two daughter boards. *But the receiver in
this case seems to receive only signals send from other USRPs. But signals
Transmitted from a diiferent antenna/daughter board on same USRP was not
received*. I used this isolation for my benefit to run a scanner
simultaneously to detect signal from while transmission is going on. I do
not know if this isolation can be removed by changing some parameters. I do
not have access to my boards now will try it next week and let you know.But
I would recommend you to search the archive  there are some related
discussions.
Thank you
Swapna
