Thank you for your response. I tried transmitting at a different frequency, still didn't see the baseband signal. Seeing a 3GHz carrier on the output


./rfnoc_radio_loopback --rx-freq=4e9 --tx-freq=3e9 --rate=200e6 --spp=600


I forgot to mention that I am using a wired setup. Signal generator to splitter, splitter to sdr rx and Scope, the sdr tx to Scope.

Hi,


While testing the rfnoc_radio_loopback.cpp from the 6af6ac3 commit on master, I found that if I send a 50 MHz signal on top of a 4 GHz carrier to the SDR, on the loopback output I just get a 4GHz carrier. I looked into the rfnoc_radio_loopback.cpp file and found no DDC or DUC blocks. Could this be the reason for receiving no baseband signal in loopback (no down conversion logic happening) or am I missing something

Has anyone used this file before? Arguments are as follows


./rfnoc_radio_loopback --rx-freq=4e9 --tx-freq=4e9 --rate=200e6 --spp=600


thanks,

VP


Your TX and RX frequencies are the same--how are you isolating the antennae from one another? What happens if you make your TX frequency different from your RX frequency (which is usually how a repeater works).



You should probably specify an RX gain and TX gain -- how much power are you injecting into the RX side? More than -15dBm is near the
  linearity limits, and much "louder" and you risk device damage to the RX.
