Hi Martin
Thanks for looking into my post.
I used a cable to connect to the spectrum analyzer ( united microflex
150
with 15 db/ft attenuation, my cable length was 1 ft). However before
connecting to the spectrum analyzer, I had an attenuator set to 50 dB.
These readings were taken with a gain set to zero. I used
tx_waveformsprogram provided in the examples with:
BB freq: 6.25MHz
Sampling rate : 13 MHz
I just varied my amplitude in these steps.
Thanks
Gayathri

Gayathri,
how did you measure? Did you use an antenna, or cable connection to the
spectrum analyzer?
Also, what were your gain settings? And your tx signal?
Martin
when i ploted the graph in excel, (O/p power Vs amplitude), i got two
almost linear curves, but their was a big difference in the 2 lines @
921.25 MHz and 2.45625 GHz (as seen above) at the start and if
extrapolated could converge at a higher ampl and o/p power. I was not
sure about my results and was looking to see if some one could let me
know if these values look within the normal expected behaviour? if
not, please let me know what is the normal expected behaviour. I am
new to USRP and GRC programming and doing this for a project.
