I am trying to implement this discussion:[Discuss-gnuradio] Change frequency
in USRPsource
automatically(https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/discuss-gnuradio/2016-03/msg00402.html).
My objective is to create a block which changes the frequency automatically in
steps of 2e6, starting from 2.37e9.
My block has a code given below:
import stringimport numpy
import pmt
from gnuradio import gr
from gnuradio import digital
class frew_sweep_v1_f(gr.sync_block):
"""
docstring for block frew_sweep_v1_f
"""
def __init__(self,initial_freq=2.37e9, step=2e6):
gr.sync_block.__init__(self,
name="frew_sweep_v1_f",
in_sig=[],
out_sig=[])
self.message_port_register_in(pmt.intern('clock'))
self.message_port_register_out(pmt.intern('sync'))
self.set_msg_handler(pmt.intern('clock'),self.handler)
self.freq=initial_freq
self.step=step
def handler(self,pdu):
self.message_port_pub(pmt.intern('sync'),pmt.cons(pmt.intern("freq"),pmt.to_pmt(self.freq)))
self.freq+=self.step
the xml file has a code given below:
frew_sweep_v1_f
tutorial_frew_sweep_v1_f
[tutorial]
import tutorial
from gnuradio.digital import packet_utils
tutorial.frew_sweep_v1_f($initial_freq, $step)
post_message($msg)
message
msg
string
in
message
out
message
I inserted this new block between a message block and message debug block.The
new top_block code generated is given below:

import sys
if sys.platform.startswith('linux'):
try:
x11 = ctypes.cdll.LoadLibrary('libX11.so')
