Controlled file sink

Hi all,

I am almost new to this GNU radio world, from the writting software
point of
view. I want to collect assynchronously sent signals from a transmitter,
but
the problem is I don’t know how to say: Ok, RSSI is ok, something is
going
on, save that to a file. Is there any way of controlling blocks in GRC.

Hope you have some basic guidlines.

Regards

Hi nexy_sm,

I’m pretty sure gnuradio-core/src/examples/tags/uhd_burst_detector.py
does something close to what you want. At least, it should give you a
good idea how to proceed.

Ok, thank you, I will take a look.

It may be time to add a “Discard”
parameter input to the file sink, to easily support this sort of thing.

Was that global suggestion for the future activities, or suggestion for
me?

I would be happy if I was able to do that. Anyway it would be really
nice
option, as well as squelch output which tells that signal level is above
threshold.

It was a
global suggestion, unless you feel comfortable adding that feature to
the file-sink block, and submitting the patches.

There are also a couple of squelch implementations that you might be
able to use. The uhd_burst_detector is kind of nice, though, in how it
creates a new file for each burst with a time tag on it.

But the problem with the burst detector is that the burst detection
part of it isn’t incredibly robust and will probably trigger on false
positives. You might be able to combine one of the squelch blocks with
this example to get better results.
