Detailed Description

Function Documentation

static sptr gr::uhd::amsg_source::make ( const ::uhd::device_addr_t &  device_addr, msg_queue::sptr  msgq  )

static

Make a new USRP asynchronous message-based source block.

static sptr gr::uhd::usrp_sink::make ( const ::uhd::device_addr_t &  device_addr, const ::uhd::io_type_t &  io_type, size_t  num_channels  )

static

Make a new USRP sink block.The USRP sink block reads a stream and transmits the samples. The sink block also provides API calls for transmitter settings.

TX Stream tagging:

The following tag keys will be consumed by the work function:

• pmt::string_to_symbol("tx_sob")
• pmt::string_to_symbol("tx_eob")
• pmt::string_to_symbol("tx_time")

The sob and eob (start and end of burst) tag values are pmt booleans. When present, burst tags should be set to true (pmt::PMT_T).

The timstamp tag value is a pmt tuple of the following: (uint64 seconds, and double fractional seconds).

See the UHD manual for more detailed documentation: http://code.ettus.com/redmine/ettus/projects/uhd/wiki

Parameters

device_addr	the address to identify the hardware
io_type	the desired input data type
num_channels	number of stream from the device

Returns

a new USRP sink block object

static sptr gr::uhd::usrp_source::make ( const ::uhd::device_addr_t &  device_addr, const ::uhd::io_type_t &  io_type, size_t  num_channels  )

static

Make a new USRP source block.The USRP source block receives samples and writes to a stream. The source block also provides API calls for receiver settings.

RX Stream tagging:

The following tag keys will be produced by the work function:

• pmt::string_to_symbol("rx_time")
• pmt::string_to_symbol("rx_rate")
• pmt::string_to_symbol("rx_freq")

The timstamp tag value is a pmt tuple of the following: (uint64 seconds, and double fractional seconds). A timestamp tag is produced at start() and after overflows.

The sample rate and center frequency tags are doubles, representing the sample rate in Sps and frequency in Hz. These tags are produced upon the user changing parameters.

See the UHD manual for more detailed documentation: http://code.ettus.com/redmine/ettus/projects/uhd/wiki

Parameters

device_addr	the address to identify the hardware
io_type	the desired output data type
num_channels	number of stream from the device

Returns

a new USRP source block object
