Retrieving file from packets received by benchmark_rx.py

GNU Radio

Hello,

I have been playing around with benchmark_tx.py and benchmark_rx.py I
was able to transmit packets (generated from a Text File) over the air
to another computer. My question is, is there a way to retrieve the
original file from the actual packets? It would be greatly appreciated
if someone would point me to the right direction.

Thank you

If you aren’t getting the file out, how do you know you are able to
transmit then to another computer?

If I understand your question, you’d have to look at the “rx_callback”
function in benchmark_rx.py to write the file to disk. Currently, it
just spits out some stats and discards the payload. You need to make it
do something interesting with the payload.
