Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Help : Where is the demodulation blocks implemented in gnuradio [ GMSK,PSK etc].

[adib_sairi]

the demodulation and modulation is done in GNU Radio. the raw digitized
signal from USRP will be proccessed by gnu radio  either we want to
filtered, do FFT, demodulate and etc. all is done using GNU Radio. 

USRP is the hardware to interfare the digital world with the analog world..
