Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] [Douglas Geiger BBN 802.11b] Porting code on USRP2 problems

[Colby Boyer]

Hi Ben,

I uploaded my files to the usrp2_version in the CGRAN server. It uses the same files I used to run my USRP2 tests, so it should interface with the hardware correctly. Let me know if it does not.

Bests,

Colby

Hi Ben,

Perhaps I haven't updated the CGRAN repo yet. I'll take a look and try to get back to you within an hour.

I'm trying to modify the bbn_80211b_rx.py code inorder to receive packets but in every step I'm facing an AttributeError like:

AttributeError: 'usrp2_source_32fc_sptr' object has no attribute 'make_format'

AttributeError: 'usrp2_source_32fc_sptr' object has no attribute 'set_format'

AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'set_gain'

AttributeError: 'gr_hier_block2_sptr' object has no attribute 'subdev'

It seems that the code has not been switched correctly to work with usrp2 and still make reference to usrp classes.

Did you try to run the bbn_80211b_rx.py with the usrp2 that you have?

That's good news.

The code I sent seemed to be working but i realy didn't tested it. We have only one USRP2 here and we were trying to receive pkts using a 802.11b PCI card (Realtek RTL8180L chipset), but without success (some problems with the card configuration).

   Hi Colby!


   We have also tried without success.
   We have used the TX path from Tiago and a modified version of the
   RX path (firmware and FPGA at their latest update).
   I also felt confident that the the TX path works, and consequently
   that the RX path had some problem.


   So we have tried to transmit with the USRP2 and receive with a
   real IEEE802.11 chipset (Ralink chipset RT2500).
   This chipset has no firmware and we modified the linux driver so
   as to:
   - avoid mac CRC (Everything received on the MAC layer is passed to
   the higher layers);
   - set fixed modulation schemes (i.e. DBPSK 1Mbps);
   - set PLCP long preamble.
   - set complete monitor/passive mode.


   The chipset detects some transmitted frames. This could be an
   indication that the PLCP preamble/header is correct (?).
   However the PLCP payload is just rubbish.
   We have also tried to submit stupid payloads (like ffffffff) and I
   have the impression that what we receive is just random. :-(


   If we obtain some successful result in the next few days, I'll let
   you know!


   Best Regards,
   Danilo
