Hi Milo,
As I understand (if we’re still are talking about the 802.11b code), the
tx side uses multiple message queues “in between” the processing blocks
to handle the different data rates. I’m not sure I understand your
question, but yes the detete_head() function is used to extract messages
from the queue. Take a look in the bbn_80211b_pkt.py and I think you
will see how the message queues are used there.

Hi Colby,
Based on what you said, is that means, at Tx side, the encoded data
stream from encoder should also be loaded into gr.msg_queue() and
applies delete_head() funtion?
Thank you,
Milo

Within the BBN RX side, all the processing blocks are stuck together
so that data “streams” from each block to the next. In the final block,
when a packet is successfully decoded it is loaded in a message queue.
The loading into the message queue is done within the C++ code, not the
python.
There is another thread running that will sleep on an empty queue and
will not wake up until something is inserted into the queue. When a
message enters the queue, the thread wakes up, takes out the message and
then prints it out via a call back function.
Check the source code for the message queue to see if there is another
function to add a message.
Thanks,
Colby

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to get a grip of how the software code works in gnuradio.
At the moment I’m looking at the bbn 802.11b rx implementation.
I would like to understand how the data stream is transported from
the usrp source block and further to the rest of the processing blocks
that are connected together. There is a message queue involved, but how
and where is the data added to the queue? Is there another way of
putting data in the message queue than using the inset_tail function?
I have read the general documentation on how the gnuradio code is
built by David Shen, and I have also been reading the gr code, but I
still can’t seem to figure it all out. Can someone please point me in
the right direction on where to look for this kind of documentation?
Thanks!
