Then what could be the problem for a low SNR. The average power I see at the receiver is -100 to -120 db and the signal is too distorted within noise.
This can have many reasons (including gain, interference, DC offsets, LO leakage, etc etc.) I think it will take some more effort from your side to find out what's going wrong.
You might find lots of helpful information on - wime-project.net/installation/ - the GNU Radio Wiki - the mailing list archive - Stack overflow
And I watched your video on YouTube in which you were showing a demo of the WiFi receiver. In that video you had big antennas and I don't think those were Vert 2450.
If the video shows larger dipoles with cables, they were ECOM9-5500. Again, I don't believe that the antennas are your problem. I used the transceiver successfully with many different antennas, including the Vert 2450 that you are using.

But you didnt connect them directly to the USRP. You used some cable to connect the two and had a stand for your antenna. Can you tell me which cable was that ? I have no idea what you are talking about. When I used the Vert antennas, I connected them directly to the USRP. If you experience low SNR you'll probably not improve things if you add cables between the SDR and the antenna. I doubt that the antenna or cables are your problem.

Can you tell me which antennas did you use for your experiments when you wrote your paper? Because I think a major problem with my receiver is a very low SNR because everything works fine with simulations. Currently I am using Vert 2450 antenna with my USRP N210. I used the same setup with the Vert 2450 antennas.

I see that the sync_long block does frequency offset correction and the frame_equalizer block does the phase correction but I dont understand where is the timing offset being handled. Can anyone tell me which algorithm is being used to do that? The Sync Long block correlates the signal with the known pattern of the long preamble to derive how the FFTs have to be aligned in time.
