[Discuss-gnuradio] Suggestion to Improve Some Digital Modulations Reception

[Firas A.]

Hi,

I never used Gnuradio packets transmission blocks and even don't know how
the digital benchmark_?X.py work. But, today when I was explaining GNURadio
for some friends, I noticed that some digital modulations (for example GMSK)
reception can be improved by using a scrambling engine which is something I
used before many years ago to improve data reception circuitry performance. 

The problem is raised when the digital source is producing a long sequence
of 0's or 1's. This will make the regeneration process more difficult at the
receiver. To solve this problem, I used 8 bit shift register with its input
derived from  XOR which is fed from the source digital input and from a
second XOR. The second XOR takes its input from the 4th and 8th shift
register bits. Implementing this circuit as a GR block is easy and helpful.


Best regards,

Firas
