Sine wave of only 3 cycles

GNU Radio
1

Dear Sir,

A block of Signal Source (Sine) generates sine wave continuously.
How to make it just generates 3 wave-cycle and then stop generating
immediately.
At the end of the flow-graph there is a File Sink. This captures data
for
offline processing.

Hi,

you can use a Head block to make the sample stream stop after a given
number of samples. Just calculate how many samples there will be in
three
cycles and set the Head block’s parameter accordingly.

Also,
to do basic mathematical tasks you don’t have to rely on GNU Radio,
which is a fine signal processing framework but not so much a math
environment.

If you want to have a three period sine signal, the python is short

#import numpy as np

f_sin = 1.0
f_sample = 16.0
periods = 3.0

s_per_period = f_sample/f_sin

sinevalues = np.sin(np.linspace(0, periods2np.pi,
periods*s_per_period) )
sinevalues.astype(np.float32).tofile(“filename”)

this will be the same data format as written by the file sink.

Greetings
Marcus
