Hi all,
Im trying to transmit a sine wave from RFX2400 usrp, and im successful
in
transmitting it. The only thing which bothers me is that im making a
sine
wave from gr.vector_source_c in usrp_siggen.py with a sampling frequency
of
2M = dac rate/interp rate. So, how is this sampling done or sine is
sampled
at some other frequency…
Regards,
Ebtisam

Ebtisam,
I’m not sure I follow. You should be using a gr.sig_source_c to generate
a
sine way, not the vector source.
The sig_source takes in the sampling rate in Hz and the frequency of the
sine in Hz to produce the signal. Now, to the CPU, the sampling rate is
a
meaningless number; all it knows is the number of samples per cycle. But
the rate matters when talking to the real world – like the USRP itself.
Since the USRP is set to a rate (dac_rate/interp_rate), it expects
samples
coming at that rate. It’s the USRP that provides the rate clocking for
the
rest of the system.
