Hi Vipin - You're doubly dereferencing IdealFMCW. I think your code
should read:{{{
*Tx1 = *Tx1 + (IdealFMCW[tapIdx]) * (*hTx1);
}}}
because the [tapIdx] already dereferences the gr_complex* (IdealFMCW) to
be just gr_complex. The error provided by your compiler isn't very
helpful. Clang's error reads:{{{
error: indirection requires pointer operand ('gr_complex' (aka
'complex<float>') invalid)}}}
which at least gives a clue about the extra dereference but it's great
either. Hope this helps! - MLD
