I wonder if you are told several more times that it is already released in an svn branch if you will finally look to see how to get it?

http://gnuradio.org/trac/browser/gnuradio/branches/developers/trondeau/ofdm

That took me less than 2 minutes to find. It will take you less than two minutes to figure out how to do an svn download on that source.

What doesn't work is up to you to fix. That is the nature of GPL projects such as this one.
Have fun.

Hi Tom,

Would you mind release your modified code for me as reference first? Thanks

Hello Tom,

Based on your information below I know the problem will be receiver.
However, if I want to solve the receiver's problem. Where is the starting point you suggestion? From the gnu-radio core part?

This problem will be fixed once I get time to merge my current branch,
which will be in a few days, hopefully.

Tom

For anyone working with the OFDM code, my latest check-in to the
trunk fixes some of the main issues of transmitting over the air. Using benchmark_ofdm_rx and benchmark_ofdm_tx on different machines, I am now able to successfully capture most packets with any modulation at the appropriate signal level.
I say most packets because there is still an issue involved in the
receiver where the regenerator signal pops up before the peak detector signal resets it and causes a problem in the packet sampler. To see what I mean, run
"benchmark_ofdm.py --log"

And look at the output of the regen and peak detector blocks:
gr_plot_char.py ofdm_sync_pn-regen_b.dat ofdm_sync_pn-peaks_b.dat


This will plot a series of 0's with a few 1's, where the peaks
occur. The peak detector sends it out once, and then the regenerator takes over. For every packet, there is one output of the peak detector. If you look, sometimes the peak detector will hit just after a regenerated signal. By this point, it's too late and the ofdm_sampler has already triggered off of the regen signal and ignores the peak.
It's a bit of a hassle, but I'll look into it soon. Any help is
appreciated, though :)
Tom
