Yes, I can confirm hash 2fe3..., and the images were downloaded with the
supplied uhd_image_downloader, what is configured like this:

 

_DEFAULT_BASE_URL         = "http://files.ettus.com/binaries/images/";

_AUTOGEN_IMAGES_FILENAME  = "uhd-images_003.008.003-rc1.zip"

_AUTOGEN_IMAGES_CHECKSUM  = "8522b02386f5fe0bb51baa3ba0001ef0"

 

The GRC filkes are accessible now, the only modifications I made were due to
Ron Economos' hints regarding sampling rate, and I added a frequency slider
to choose the correct European TV channel without having to know the
frequency. 

 

Ralph.

Ralph,

I'm not able to access either of the .grc files on your website, but using
the original dvbt_tx_demo_8k flow graph from gr-dvbt, the spectrum I
generate with 003.008.003-RC1 has a 3dB bandwidth of about ~7.5MHz the same
as your uhd_master screen shot. I don't see the truncated bandwidth of your
uhd_rc1 screenshot. http://ianbuckley.net/dvbt.jpg

Can you verify please that you have UHD at the current 003.008.003-RC1 tag
position git hash 2fe319d9790c7ec0bcdb9582c4fea95f3fd809b9, and that the
downloaded FPGA images are from:
http://files.ettus.com/binaries/images/uhd-images_003.008.003-rc1.zip

 

I'll need your exact flow graph if I'm to debug this anymore.

 

-Ian

I have put it all here, flow graphs and screenshots of the flow graphs:

This way we can keep it on the list without sending attachments.

They were taken from the VM container before all the upgrades were made, but
I did not change anything when upgrading.

Ralph.

Great Ralph, thats a big help. Can you send me your exact flow graph used to
generate these 2 plots off list please. I want to re run this scenario and
see your exact configuration.

Thanks

OK, here we go. The hotel TV was dvb-c only, so I had to do the tests 
back at home.

I took my perfectly working Kubuntu 14.04 64 bit VM container together 
with my B210, made a copy and updated this one, first I made a git 
pull to get latest master, built it, rebuilt gnuradio, rebuilt 
gr-dvbt, updated the FPGA images, and everything still was fine. The

chosen dvb-t bandwidth is 8 MHz.




Then I changed to 003_008_003_rc1, did the same procedure, fired up 
grc, and the signal was not decodable both with a dvb-t PC receiver 
and with an dvb-x analyzer. The analyzer saw the RF level, but no 
data, no constellation, nothing, it looked to him like interference.

When you have a look at the two "uhd" screenshots here 
http://dk5ras.dyndns.org/tmp/DVB/ made with my spectrum analyzer then 
you will find that RC1 produces a somehow narrower signal, so it 
really looks something gets cut at the ends with all the filtering and DSP

stuff.



Adjusting the channel bandwidth in the uhd sink block from 0 to a 
sensible value changes nothing.

Btw., the dvb-t2 package behaves identical.

Ralph.

master works, but RC1 does not? Huh, I'm confused now. Can you give 
some detail on what's going on, so we can try and reproduce this?

Thanks,
Martin

RC1, master seems to work.

Thanks, Ralph. Just to clarify: When you say 'New UHD', do you mean 
3.8.3-RC1, or latest master?

It is a B210, but as a note, due to the up to now missing FPGA 
images I used 003.008.003-RC1, not the latest master. Still I had no 
access to a spectrum and DVB-T analyzer, so I have no idea what is 
happening, I just can confirm that RF is transmitted, and the 
receiver doesn't get a picture, while with the snapshot of the same 
VM before the upgrade

is received without problems.



I will know more in about three hours.

Ralph.

Hi,

Not only OpenBTS is affected, also gr-dvbt/t2 do not work any more 
with latest uhd. A quick check during lunch break showed, the 
produced output is not decodable any more. I will take a closer 
look this evening at home, where I have more and better equipment.


Ralph,

which device is this on?

Thanks,
Martin
