Possible to build such a multiple input system on USRP/USRP2?

GNU Radio

Hi,
I want to build a multiple input system with four incoming channels
based on USRP/USRP2. The incoming samples of these four channels must
be synchronized and feed into one computer. The center frequencies of
these four channels are different, but they are within the range of
the DBSRX daughter board. My question is how many USRP/USRP2 boards I
need? Are there any examples about building a multiple input system?
Thanks!

My experiences showed me, that the DBSRX doesn’t work that well in
multiantenna systems with synchronisation (in general for
synchronisation). I’d go for RFX1800s instead (in case you have the
choice)

If you manage to synchronize two USRPs then two, if you go for USRP2s
afaik it’s 4.

In case of USRPs check the multiusrp code, I submitted a patch to get it
running with trunk some time ago. But I did not check since then.
