Hi Alphonso,

keep in mind that if you don't resample on RX side your signal processing has to deal with the oversampled signal. If you use the same chain to demodulate your signal I can see why it only works when you resample on RX side.

hi felix,
i have tried it with the resampler block but it didn't work well.
on the tx side i have used it to resample from 11khz, which i need for my 10khz bandwidth, to 48khz. on the rx side i can see the spectrum with 48khz and the bandwidth of my signal still remains at 10khz (as requested). the problem is that i can't detect any signal at rx side. when i adjust both parts (tx and rx) with a sampling rate at 11khz it works.
for better understanding i have attached my flowgraphs and sink outputs.

    hello felix,
    >>please remember to always reply to the list.
    i'm sorry, i'm new at this. i have checked my configuration and i
    hope it works the next time.
    to mix up the baseband signal to 12khz or higher to short wave
    (3-30mhz) should be the same procedure. i have tested it by using
    a multiply block and a signal source block as the carrier frequency.
    but there is an other question: if i configured my system as
    described, can i be sure that the bandwidth of each sub carrier
    has the bandwidth and symbol duration as shown by the equations?
    used_bw = occupied_carriers * df
    df = used_bw / occupied_carriers = 10khz / 228
    df = 43.86hz   -->   tsym = 22.8ms
    it's very confusing why i have to adjust my used bw by changing
    the sampling rate. when i follow the equations and the standard i
    choose one mode (RM A, SO 3). that means i have to use 228 carriers
    and have a symbol duration with 24ms which leads to 41.66hz
    carrier spacing. so the used bw is 228 * 41.66hz = 9.5khz (approx.
    10khz). this bw should be fix and should not change by the
    sampling rate.
    sorry for the maybe silly questions but i want to keep on that stuff.

Well, the measurable on-air bandwidth is always defined by the speed/rate at which your soundcard processes your digital samples. If you remember that B ~ 1/T and that the rate of your soundcard controls T it becomes obvious that changing the sample rate changes the bandwidth. If you don't want that, you could use a resampler that adapts its resampling ratio to the sampling rate of the soundcard.

    you mean if there were pilots for a channel estimation in the
    transmitted signal?
