Hi All,
I have been battling with this for the last week and still have not found a
solution.
I've include some more info for anyone who can help.
USRP1
Daughterboard: RFX2400 [using TX/RX port for Transmission & RX2 port for
Reception]
Carrier Freq: 2.43 GHz
I've also included the constellation diagrams (for the output of the
differential Phasor) for each of the 4 cases.
So once again recapping, i'm inputting the byte [108] through a vector
source, but only get the correct output sequence [108] SOME of the time,
while at other times i will get either 177, 27, or 28.
Case 1) The correct decoded sequence [108] = [0x6x] = [01101100]
http://users.tpg.com.au/marcinw//correct.PNG
Case 2) Incorrectly decoded sequence [177]
http://users.tpg.com.au/marcinw//incorrect1.PNG
Case 3) Incorrectly decoded sequence [27]
http://users.tpg.com.au/marcinw//incorrect2.PNG
Case 4) Incorrectly decoded sequence [198]
http://users.tpg.com.au/marcinw//incorrect3.PNG
Note: When inputting less complicated input sequences however, eg: 11111111
,00000000, 01010101, were only 1 possible QPSK symbol is contained within
the byte, the output sequence seems to decode correctly.
Once i complicate the input byte though, to something like [01101100] =
[108] , where ALL possible QPSK symbols are contained within that byte, i
will receive the incorrect sequence at the output (most of the time).
Some final questions:
1) Can anybody work out why the sequence isn't decoding correctly?
2) Has anybody actually successfully created DQPSK transmission/reception
using a Byte Vector Source as the input and Byte vector sink as the output?
3) Will i have to resort to some sort of Channel Coding/Decoding to correct
the received sequence?
Regards,
Marcin
