Detailed Description

Base class for USRP blocks.

Note that many of the functions defined here differ between Rx and Tx configurations. As an example, set_center_freq() will set the Rx frequency for a usrp_source object, and the Tx frequency on a usrp_sink object.

◆ set_normalized_gain()

)
pure virtual

Set the normalized gain.

The normalized gain is always in [0, 1], regardless of the device. 0 corresponds to minimum gain (usually 0 dB, but make sure to read the device notes in the UHD manual) and 1 corresponds to maximum gain.

Note that it is not possible to specify a gain name for this function.

◆ set_power_reference()

virtual void gr::uhd::usrp_block::set_power_reference ( double  power_dbm,

)
pure virtual

Set the absolute power reference level for this channel

Note that this API is available for certain devices only, and only if calibration data is available. Refer to the UHD manual for greater detail: https://files.ettus.com/manual/page_power.html

In a nutshell, using the power reference will configure the device such that a full-scale signal (0 dBFS) corresponds to a signal at the antenna connector of power_dbm. After calling this function, the device will attempt to keep the power level constant after retuning, which means the gain level may be changed after a re-tune.

The device may coerce the available power level (for example, if the requested power level is not achievable by the device). The coerced value may be read by calling get_power_reference().

Parameters
power_dbmThe power reference level in dBm
chanthe channel index 0 to N-1
Exceptions
std::runtime_errorif the underlying UHD version does not support the power API.

This update will only take effect after a restart of the streaming, or before streaming and after construction. This will also delete the current streamer. Note you cannot change the I/O signature of this block using this function, or it will throw.

It is possible to leave the 'channels' fields of stream_args unset. In this case, the previous channels field is used.

Parameters
stream_argsNew stream args.
Exceptions
std::runtime_errorif new settings are invalid.
