-This GNU Radio component implements a FLEX radiopager receiver/demodulator.
-
-FLEX pager towers are between 929 MHz and 932 MHz at 25 KHz centers.
-
-Current status (7/16/07):
-
-FLEX receiving is completed except for addition of BCH error correction.
-
-There are three scripts:
-
-usrp_flex.py - Receives and displays pages from a single paging channel. To
- work from recorded data, record from USRP with decimation 256
- at center frequency.
-
- Usage: usrp_flex.py [options]
-
- Options:
- -h, --help show this help message and exit
- -f Hz, --frequency=Hz set receive frequency to Hz
- -R SUBDEV, --rx-subdev-spec=SUBDEV select USRP Rx side A or B
- -c Hz, --calibration=Hz set frequency offset to Hz
- -g dB, --gain=dB set RF gain
- -l, --log log flowgraph to files (LOTS of data)
- -v, --verbose display debug output
- -F FROM_FILE, --from-file=FROM_FILE read samples from file instead of USRP
-
- Example, to receive from 931.95M (a common nationwide channel) with DBSRX in
- side A of USRP:
-
- $ usrp_flex.py -f 931.95M -g 32 -R A
-
-
-usrp_flex_band.py - Receives and displays pages from a 1 MHz paging band (40 pager
- channels.) To work from recorded data, record from USRP with
- decimation 64 at center frequency.
-
-Usage: usrp_flex_band.py [options]
-
- Options:
- -h, --help show this help message and exit
- -f Hz, --frequency=Hz set receive center frequency to Hz
- -R SUBDEV, --rx-subdev-spec=SUBDEV select USRP Rx side A or B
- -c Hz, --calibration=Hz set frequency offset to Hz
- -g dB, --gain=dB set RF gain
- -F FROM_FILE, --from-file=FROM_FILE Read from file instead of USRP
- -l, --log log flowgraph to files (LOTS of data)
- -v, --verbose display debug output
-
- Example, to receive from the lower third of the pager band with DBSRX in side B
- of USRP:
-
- $ usrp_flex_band.py -f 929.5M -g 32 -R B
-
-usrp_flex_all.py - Receives and displays pages from entire pager band (3 MHz,
- 120 pager channels.) This does not work in real time due
- to CPU limitations, but can work from recorded USRP data. To
- work from recorded data, record from USRP with decimation 20 at
- center frequency of 930.5M.
-
- Usage: usrp_flex_all.py [options]
-
- Options:
- -h, --help show this help message and exit
- -R SUBDEV, --rx-subdev-spec=SUBDEVC select USRP Rx side A or B
- -c Hz, --calibration=Hz set frequency offset to Hz
- -g dB, --gain=dB set RF gain
- -F FROM_FILE, --from-file=FROM_FILE Read from file instead of USRP
- -l, --log log flowgraph to files (LOTS of data)
- -v, --verbose display debug output
-
- Example, to receive all pager channels with DBSRX in side A:
-
- $ usrp_flex_all.py -R A
-
-The demodulator is relatively sensitive to frequency offset and can capture a signal
-within 3k of the actual signal.
-
-All three scripts take a 'calibration' parameter, which specifies the frequency offset
-of the daughterboard. This causes the USRP to be tuned to the given center frequency
-plus the calibration offset. For example, if your DBSRX shows 930MHz as 930.001MHz in
-usrp_fft.py, then use '-c 1k' in the command line to automatically add this.
