Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] xlating filter will introduce phase shift

[Page Jack]

Hi Tom,
the xlating filter work fine, the phase shift is cause by another factor. Thanks for your 
reply.

Those filters are implemented as FIRs, which means they will have
linear phase in the passband and constant (and known) group delay.

In general, though, you will never know the phase of the incoming
signal received over the air. If you have a signal where you require
the phase, you'll have to figure out a way to recover it, anyways.
