Hello Ze Zhang:

First, there is a dedeicated mailing list for USRP-specific questions: USRP-users. https://kb.ettus.com/Mailing_Lists

"the information mentioned that the common structure for all USRPs is the IF bandpass sampling structure," -> where did you find this information? This is, in general, not true. USRP N200/N210s, especially, usually default to zero-IF (direct conversion) mode (not always, though).

In case of the USRP N200s/N210s, daughterboards implement the RF/IF (if exists) stages of the transceivers and the motherboards implement the baseband and the digital stages of the transceivers. The daughterboards often do not have any IF stages, and directly convert the signal to the baseband. The motherboards CAN implement a low-frequency IF stage by digitally shifting the baseband signals before the decimation stage. This is optional, and not used by default.

Regards,
Kyeong Su Shin

제목: Questions about the IF signal processing structure of USRP N210
 

Hi,

I am using the URSP N210, and have some questions regarding the internal IF (intermediate frequency) signal processing structure of USRP N210. 

In the websites, the information mentioned that the common structure for all USRPs is the IF bandpass sampling structure, and in the previous question(https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/discuss-gnuradio/2013-09/msg00007.html) it was mentioned that USRP N210 is the common second generation USRP structure. 

So is there any difference between the second-generation USRP structure and the digital IF transceiver structure? Also, what is the IF frequency range of the RF signal received by the N210 after analog down-conversion?  

Is it possible to get the value of the local oscillator frequency or the value of IF frequency by the setting carrier frequency?
