[USRP-users] Using both TX/RX and RX2 ports on the same daughter board to receive signal simultaneously

2017-08-02 Thread Karan Suri via USRP-users
Hi, I'm trying to using both TX/RX and RX2 ports on the same daughter board of X310 to receive signal at the same time. On the host side, I tried to create a new recv_to_file thread inside the main thread(which will execute another recv_to_file). However, the terminal will show the error

Hi Alex, your application sounds cool :) So, amplitude stability over ten seconds isn't usually a design goal – how strong are these amplitude modulations? Also, I'd have a standard visualization that I'd usually share here: offset tuning $f_\text{RF}$ is the frequency of the actual

I made one for a project, but can't share it as it's customer work. It's a little bit tricky and I never got it 100% right, but it works well enough for what it needs to do. The tricky parts are preserving or reconstituting packet boundaries, and being able to advance and delay the stream without

[USRP-users] N210 - pure (real) 50MHz sine output

2017-08-02 Thread Alex Pesch via USRP-users
​Hello - I'm attempting to use my N210 in a somewhat unconventional application that requires a pure (real) sine wave output, with some frequency modulation around 50MHz. This signal will be used to resonate a physical device within a small band around 50MHz. H​owever, I'm finding when the

Hi Jack, PDUs are not just samples one after the other – they contain metadata. I can't really imagine what your flow graph looks like, so I'd be grateful for a screenshot (File->Screen Capture). Anyway, there'd be no obvious reason your UDP detour would make things faster – maybe the

For minimum data loss at 50MSps, you have to use a 10G cable , Data rate with 1G is limited to ~33 MSps which rounds off to 28 MSps (integral decimation). Karan Suri University of Michigan On Aug 2, 2017 3:56 PM, "Derek Kozel via USRP-users" < usrp-users@lists.ettus.com> wrote: > Hello

Hi, I've been having some difficulty getting reliable data flow from my USRP X310 with a GRC flowgraph, so I'm trying out writing my system in C++ with the UHD driver API. My first step has been to retrieve samples from the X310, forward them to a UDP port and then pick them up with a GRC Socket

Hello Snehasish, The UHD examples contain all the code to receive a stream of samples at that rate. What have you tried? We may be able to help better if you explain what is not working. 50 MS/s is not too high of a load so most recent computers should have no problem receiving that much data

2017-08-02 Thread Nate Temple via USRP-users
Hi Daniele, Generally speaking, 'maint' should be stable. If you need an absolutely stable version, it is recommended to use a tagged release, such as 'release_003_010_002_000' (UHD 3.10.2.0) or 'release_003_009_007' (UHD 3.9.7). We perform release testing on every tagged version of UHD.

Hi Mark, I've added back on the list, it's useful to keep everyone in sync with progress. The WX FFT only takes one input but the QT Frequency Sync has a configurable number of inputs. In general the QT GUIs are being promoted over WX. Regards, Derek On Tue, Aug 1, 2017 at 7:40 PM, Mark

2017-08-02 Thread Derek Kozel via USRP-users
Hello Daniel, There is no check in your code to confirm that the time is correctly set. The 1PPS signal should be a square wave rather than a sine wave. It is a logic signal rather than an RF one and the sync port is designed to handle it.

Hi Nauman, I'm guessing you're building FPGA for the X300 series.. Typically this is a problem with setting the environment correctly. In the build directory (uhd-fpga/usrp3/top/x300), first run "source setupenv.sh". This calls uhd-fpga/usrp3/tools/scripts/setupenv_base.sh, which populates the
