I'm based on the complex envelope theory:   I=Ac(1+m(t))    Q=0

You can see the diagram and the signals onthe attached image.

Thanks.

So, did you use an attenuator, or did you connect directly?

I suggest that you put in a 30dB attenuator in-line, and carefully adjust both the TX and RX gain until you see the spectral component you need.

Connecting a transmitter directly to a receiver (whether it's a USRP or any other piece of radio equipment) is generally a bad idea -- there's a *strong* risk of damaging the front-end of the receiver. More so when the receiver (such as with WBX) has a low-noise front-end. So, when you're doing laboratory "loopback" tests, you use an attenuator. The WBX receiver is easily capable of "seeing" extremely weak narrowband signals, so there's no reason not to put in a fair amount of attenuation and experiment with gain levels on both the RX and TX side.
