Thanks for the recommendations. I should clarify that I am a software engineer, not a signals engineer, and my recurring need to visualize time-series data is often satisfied without having to invoke DSP. An example of the sort of thing I frequently want to do is to interactively explore data

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi Peter, You might have a look at Python with Numpy/Scipy/matplotlib. Processed data according to your needs may be observed interactively with matplotlib and numpy/scipy do a good job at offline analysis. You'd have to process your data again and

Hi Peter, GNU Radio is based very much on the idea of a data stream, so it might not actually be the tool of choice for static analysis. However, there is quite a lot which can be done with on-board tools, so let me comment in-text. On 16.07.2014 16:52, Peter A. Bigot wrote: GNU Radio is a great

I've never used it for RF work, but pandas is a very powerful framework for working with timeseries and multi-dimensional data. Very Respectfully, Dan CaJacob On Wed, Jul 16, 2014 at 11:20 AM, Marcus Müller marcus.muel...@ettus.com wrote: Hi Peter, GNU Radio is based very much on the idea

Two suggestions from my side: If you want to use Python, you can use the Spyder IDE (https://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/). Spyder is mainly designed for scientific programming. It even has built-in plotting capabilities. Another package I have used for that purpose is kst-plot. It is fast and

Peter, Have you tried Baudline? It's not open source, but it is free, and will do allot of what you want. Looks like there will be a new version soon with 64-bit support and I/Q demod. It's also quite easy to pipe GR file sink to it via a FIFO (gr-baz has a sink for just that), but it will
