Hi Tom:
    I used function set_history() as you advised in mu code ,and after I tested 
many values,
I found that the best situation is that there would be  continuous Zeros (may 
be 3 or more)in my output data which made
my data is not the exactly order which I want.  Is that also the buffer thing 
make that happen? Did you had
that before?

Hi Tom:

      Thanks for your reply. Can you tell me how to fix it?  May be I looked at 
my code too much, I do not know where to change.

Sorry, this is something you're really going to have to work out yourself. I 
find it sometimes helps to draw a picture of the buffers as the work function 
iterates over it to see what's happening to the pointers.


Just remember, if i is the index to the input buffer "in", then in[i] is only 
valid for 0 <= i <= ninput_items[0] (or noutput_items if you are using a 
gr_sync_block). If you need to look beyond the current input buffer, use 
set_history(nhist), and so the constraint becomes 0 <= i <= (ninput_items[0] + 
nhist).

Hi all:
    I wrote a new block and add it into the GnuRadio. The function of this 
block is to synchronize the spread signal, 
which means this block used local PN sequence to correlate the input signal. 
And I set the threshold, if the correlation value is 


larger than the threshold, that means I finish the synchronous part. Then use 
the local PN sequence to XOR the synchronized
signal,  so we will get the de-spread signal. 
    But there is a problem I can not figure out the reason. I test this block 
in GRC. This block can works well in short time. Then


sometimes the value of the output of this block would become 0. And I do not 
know the reason of this situation. I put my code
of the block in this e-mail. 
    I hope someone can help me to find out where is the problem of my code. 
Thank you in advance.





Just a very quick read-through, but it looks like you are advancing i too much. 
You're going to walk it out of bounds of the input buffer.
