Hi all, tx_ofdm.grc Description: Binary data I was trying out tx_ofdm.grc (flow graph that comes with the OFDM examples in Gnuradio).Specifically, I am trying to transfer a picture of a cat from a file source and see whether it gets transmitted correctly.However I noticed that some bytes (exactly

I understand. 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 ? On Jun 4, 2017 11:13 AM, "Bastian Bloessl" wrote: > Hi, > > > On 06/04/2017 04:25 PM, Qurat-Ul-Ann

I have been doing this for a long time now and I have changed all these parameters that you just mentioned in order to understand whats going on. I have changed both the transmitter and receiver gain and set different values but gain is not changing the SNR for some reason. It only works till 2.5

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. 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
