Cognitive Radio Implementation with XML

Hello,

I’m now trying to make congitive radio with help of a following article.
Configurable SDR Operation for Cognitive Radio Applications using GNU
Radio
and the Universal Software Radio Peripheral, *
http://scholar.lib.vt.edu/theses/available/etd-05182007.../01thesis_whole5.pdf
*http://scholar.lib.vt.edu/theses/available/etd-05182007.../01thesis_whole5.pdf
**

This article proposed XML files for defining SDR and its behaviors. And
it
said that SDR can use these XML files with XML parser.
However, I have a difficulties on using the parser. The mentioned
article
doesn’t show the part that implementing XML parser.

Is it impossible to use the parser in GRC? Only for a .py file typed
manually?

Songsong,
Using XML is outside the scope of GNU Radio. GRC does use XML to define
the
blocks, but it’s not in the same way that you would be using it for your
cognitive radio applications. Your best bet is to look into using Expat
or
Xerces in C/C++ or one of the various Python XML parsers.
