Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] 802.11 transceiver issue

That's pretty much impossible to say.
My prime suspect would be the WX Gui visualization sink. Really, a couple of 64 FFTs aren't that terrible performance-wise.

Marcus,
Thanks for all the help.

But Is my system underpowered ?

Also, I just observed that if I bunch few blocks in the tx flowgraph in a similar way as phy_hier block in the wifi_loopback flowgraph, I dont receive any more underruns.

When you set the length tag field in the USRP sink, it starts looking for that stream tag, which contains number of samples in the starting burst.

Technically, that starts a uhd::tx_streamer for a finite number of samples, which means different things for different hardware.

Best regards,
Marcus

Hi Marcus,

I am working on a Core i7 8GB system, I dont know if its underpowered, if it is I have access to another Corei5 16 GB station. 

I know this is going to sound dumb but,
how does the USRP sink go into burst mode, I was under the impression that USRP could only transmit data continuously.  Do you toggle the RF frontend using a switch on receiving a message ?
