Is it correct to assume that In the wiretype, complex intx(x = 16 or 8) means that each I sample is represented by x bits, and Q sample is represented by x bits? Yes, e.g. sc16 - 16 bits for I and Q, respectively == 32 bits / sample. What does the input type and output type in usrp sink and usrp source respectively, in GNU radio companion convey? This is the type used in the flow graph. You usually want complex float 32, which is the standard GR complex type. Complex int 16 would be the same as sc16 for the wire format (i.e., we don't convert). M Manu On Sun, Mar 2, 2014 at 9:32 AM, Marcus D.

Marcus, Thanks.. Few more things. Is it correct to assume that In the wiretype, complex intx(x = 16 or 8) means that each I sample is represented by x bits, and Q sample is represented by x bits? What does the input type and output type in usrp sink and usrp source respectively, in GNU radio companion convey? Manu On Sun, Mar 2, 2014 at 9:32 AM, Marcus D.
