gr-rftap for GNU Radio 3.8

2020-02-16 Thread Wöllik Helmut
hi, has anybody experience with porting the gr-rftap module to install it with pybombs under gnuradio 3.8? (https://github.com/rftap/gr-rftap ) I followed the example according https://wiki.gnuradio.org/index.php/GNU_Radio_3.8_OOT_Module_Porting_Guide but there are too many open questions

Hi Andrew, Shameless plug, but you can take a look at this repo https://gitlab.com/phorvath/smogcli2 to record samples with RTL-SDR and Raspberry PI. It is developed for the ATL-1 and SMOG-P satellites. It is a standalone application, samples at 1.6 or 2.0 maps, tracks the location of the

Hi everyone, we have a new VOLK release v2.2.0! We want to thank all contributors. This release wouldn't have been possible without them. We're curious about VOLK users. Especially we'd like to learn about VOLK users who use VOLK outside GNU Radio. If you have ideas for VOLK enhancements, let

Michael, I still have my USRP1, and ran the same test w/ 3.14 and got the same results on Win10, dropped packets down to the minimum supported rate. Same test, same driver against the B200 works fine up to about 20MSps which appears to be my USB 3 chip's limit. For kicks I downloaded the same

Re: quantization noise demonstration ?

2020-02-16 Thread jean-michel.fri...@femto-st.fr
My mistake ... my noise level was far too high. Additionnally, the noise with amplitude lower than LSB must be added to a full-scale range sine wave to be dithered amongst the various quantization bins. If anyone is interested, I updated http://jmfriedt.org/quantization.pdf which (I believe)

Hi Andrew, I would encourage you to try using GNU Radio first on your host machine in order to become familiar with it's operation. Then once you have an understanding of it, you can easily deploy your application/flowgraph to a headless device like a raspberry pi. I'd suggest starting by going

[announcement] Release 3.7.14.0

Dearest most-enduring SDR community to ever roam the galaxy, the legacy 3.7 release series sees a bug fix release. We had to bump the maint version from 13 to 14, because we fundamentally changed the (pseudo) random number generation – which has the effect that pre-3.7.14.0 flowgraphs use

Hi Till, both symbol sync and CMA equalizer in the same flowgraph at 50 MS/s can be quite a load on the CPU. As first step, make sure UHD is not printing "U" or "O"s on your console. Other than that, not quite sure what you mean with "the change phaseshifter alternately hange"; could you

Hi Michael, GR 3.3?! Wow, that *is* retro :) > Now I wanted to give it a try on W10 and a modern PC, but when I run a RX benchmark_rate test with latest UHD 3.15 but also 3.10 the command window gets filled up with DD messages and number of dropped samples is huge. That shouldn't happen.

Hi Carlos - Just to make sure: When you do "port installed gnuradio" it turns back the 3.7.13.5 release with variants that include +wxgui ... yes? The GNU Radio ports do not by default install +wxgui; you have to do so manually: "sudo port install gnuradio +wxgui". If your GR is installed that
