Hello Jawad,
Today I send the same message that I sent a few days ago because I
realized
I did not include GRC code files. Those files are necessary to detect
errors.
I’ve made the changes you said. As you say, when I assign the Payload
parameter to the number of samples of the block Random Source without
introducing Delay, I get a BER value equal to 0. But what I need to
introduce a noise source so that when I increase the power noise, also
increase the BER. This doesn’t happen making the changes that you say,
when
I introduce a noise source and the noise power is increasing the value
of
BER remains 0. This is incorrect. As you can see in the spectrum
received,
the signal contains errors that they aren’t appreciated by the block
Error
Rate. (SistemasOFDM_prueba.grc)
Also, I need to send an image and calculate the BER in the same way as
with
the random vector. When I use the block File Source and calculate the
BER,
I have the same problem, the BER remains constant at 0.51 and although
the
noise power increases, the BER remains unchanged.
(SistemaOFDM_Pruebas1.grc)
The image that I send in the previos example is called “imagen”
Thank you.
Regards,
Antonio

Hello Antonio,
Please take the habit of replying to the list. People might get into the
same problems or someone might have some knowledge to share.
Also, try to provide a flowgraph (.grc file) to make testing easier for
the
people helping you out.
That said, I did some testing and it looks like I was wrong. The delay
isn’t the problem here (at least not on my machine).
But I think I figured out the problem. It looks like you provided a
Payload
length of 0 in your OFDM modulator block.
If I set the payload length to 100 and then the random source Num.
samples
to the same value, the BER goes to 0 without adding delay. And you can
see
the BER moving when you change the delay.
There is one problem though, it doesn’t seem to work when the payload
length and the Num. samples are not set to the same value.

Jawad

Hello Jawad,
I have tried to use the delay block but I keep having the same problem. I
have attached an image of how I used the block. I also attached an image
of
the value of BER obtained, whenever I make changes to the delay block I
get
the value of 0.1251. So the problem is not resolved. Also, I tried change
the paremeter simbol per bit in the Error Rate block, but the problem
persists. What is the optimal value for this parameter? Regarding the use
of the throttle block I tried to run this diagram without him and the
value
BER is the same.
Thank you for answering my emails, your answers are very useful.
I’ve included our previous emails in the end of this email. Thank you.Regards,
Antonio
Hello,
I’m doing my College final project about gnuradio companion.
Specifically
I have to calculate the BER with OFDM using different modulations to the
subcarriers. After that, I have to do a graphic with the BER numbers.
The
configuration I use is in the image attached.
When I’m using GRC to calculate BER I always have the same problem.
First
I try to simulate without introducing any noise and get a BER data. Then
I
try to introduce AWGN noise and the BER data is the same. Clearly I’m
making a mistake, but I’m not able to identify what it is. In view of
the

some time to do their processing and forward their outputs to the next
block in line. Therefore, there is a delay between the output of the OFDM
demod block and the original signal.
What you need to do is add a delay block between your Random source and
the
