File usrp_rx_cfile.py

GNU Radio

Hello,

I e-mailed this list last week and have had some issues trying to get
the
file usrp_rx_cfile.py to give me a proper output. The readme file says
that
the output is “single precision complex float values”. Honestly I do
not
know how to convert this data to a proper text that I can analyze. The
output file that is written is just a bunch of ‘NUL’ values when read in
Notepad++. When I read it in regular notepad, it is a similar garbled
message. The file can be found at this link:

Please let me know if you have any information in reading this output.

The data is packed binary data. Each complex samples is stored as 8
bytes, 4 bytes I as a float and 4 bytes Q. You need to use a binary
program to read these files. See read_complex_binary.m for MATLAB code
and the exact same syscalls translate directory into a C program to do
the same thing.
