Hi Fikrat,

    The sampling rate must be twice the BANDWIDTH that you want.    I don't 
know much about
WiFi, but from the numbers you give, the range of frequencies you are 
interested in seems to
span about 2.447 - 2.427 GHz = 20 MHz.   The receiver users an analog mixer to 
shift the frequency
band you want down to near zero frequency, so sample with 50 MHz should be 
adequate.

Sincerely,
Dan Marlow

Subject: [Discuss-gnuradio] Max Sampling Rate Limitation

Dear all,

I am trying to monitor Wi-Fi channel number 6 which ranges from 2.427GHz to 
2.447GHz.

As I read though, the sampling rate must be at least double the highest 
frequency, which in my case is equal to 4.894GHz. However, the USRP has a limit 
of 50MHz that I cannot exceed (I tried and it kept giving me actual sampling 
rate = 50MHz). Is there a way around it so that I can reconstruct the signal 
without much losses? What proper sampling rate can I choose?

Best regards,
Fikrat
