Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Enable/Disable TX ports in B210 in 2x2 setup

The Selector block comes from the "deprecated" category, and that for good reason: Don't use it, it causes a huge teardown/setup effort behind the scenes, and not all is guaranteed to work.

Follow Marcus' advice with the 0/1 multiplication and offset tuning.

Best regards,

Hey Marcus,

 

I think the Selector block works well with my setup.

 

But I need a solution with which I can do a dynamic change in the input/output index. Can you let me know how is this possible

Hi Marcus,

 

The situation still is same.

 

By browsing the archive I found some switching of blocks with SELECTOR. Is there any example that will be helpful on how this block actually functions ?

 

Thanks

Ayaz

Hi Marcus,

 

The issue is even I put the vector source toggling with 1 and 0s it transmit a signal. So I need something that will not transmit at all and switch between these 2 radio chains.

 

Thanks,

Ayaz

You're probably seeing the residual LO leakage during periods of "no transmit".

You can try using offset-tuning to move the leakage out-of-band:

Use:

uhd.tune_request(frequency,offset)

In the UHD sink for the "frequency" field.

Hi Muller / Marcus,

 

I got the testing right now, but unfortunately it doesn’t work while I put it in my original file.

 

Here is the attached .grc where I have used vector source as input and multiply a period with 1 and then with zeros on one radio channel and opposite on the other.

 

Can you please have a look, and check if I am doing anything wrong ?

You're asking us to debug a very complex signal flow.

Why don't you try something a *lot* simpler to get the TX-flow-switching-logic correct first, and then work up from there.
