Hi Josh, Seems that you suggest to add work in network programming to avoid any unwanted packets.
My observations are that some the desired packets could be crashed by the mixing of the leakage from the transmitter. So maybe I need some fundamental solution on this problem, which means, how to remove the leakage to achieve full-duplex. The first step is to use different frequencies for the TX and RX, but my question is if it can be done by using only one antenna, connected to the TX/RX port of SBX? Second option is to mute the RX when transmitting, using gr_mute block. I am worrying if the software control command is fast enough to switch the TX and RX for the SBX, as all the commands are exchanged with USRP by ethernet. Is the mute/unmute command synchronized with the transmitting process at the USRP? Hope you understand my question. :) I am in solving this problem, and will update you for anything new.
