Hi Ron,
Tangential to the subject only, do you know if LDPC has optimizations for ARM archs in libvolk? Arm64 mainly.

Thanks,
Adrian

I haven't tried it, but it may be possible on a Raspberry Pi 4. I 
wouldn't bother with anything less than a RPi4. I have successfully run
a modified DVB-T2 flow graph on a Beagleboard-X15, but only at 5 MHz
channel width (5.714285 Msps).

I've attached the flow graph. It uses short frames and 5/6 code rate to
limit the amount of LDPC processing. It also sends a lot of dummy
symbols, again to limit the amount of processing. However, it still
attains 19.057285 Mbps at 5 MHz channel width. If you can get it to run
at 8 MHz channel width, the bitrate will be 30.491656 Mbps.

It's also tuned for UHD v3.13.0.3-rc1. If you're using a later version
of UHD, change send_frame_size=65536 to send_frame_size=8192 in the UHD
Sink block. Using large USB frames helps to significantly lower
processor load, but this feature has been removed from later versions of
UHD.

Hi all,

Is there any experience in transmitting DVB-T2 with gnuradio and
raspberry pi (any version)?
I just wonder if it can work real-time with about 9 MHz sampling
frequency of 8 MHz DVB-T2.
Thank you!

BR,
