Documentation & How-to
Here you will find documentation and how-to about the environment used by CorteXlab and provided to users.
CorteXlab
Experimental workflow
The process of running experiments on the FIT/CorteXlab testbed involves several steps:
- Developing an experiment
Node position map
Minus
GNURadio
- Building a toolchain How to install the toolchain (including GNURadio) used within CorteXlab on your computer in order to have the same development environment
- Embedding OOT modules or custom libraries/binaries in a minus scenario How to have a self-explanatory link
- FFT Web Documentation about FFT Web GNURadio block
USRPs
There 26 USRPs installed in the FIT/CorteXlab room.
- 22 are of type NI-2932 (equivalent USRP N210 with a SBX daughterboard). Here are the main characteristics of these (for more details refer to the specifications page at NI):
- Frequency range: 400 MHz to 4.4 GHz
- Maximum bandwidth: 20 MHz (but in practice less than 20 MHz are usable without loss of samples due to either the gigabit ethernet connectivity or the computing power of the signal processing computer)
- Full-duplex TX and RX chains. There are antennas connected to the
TX/RX
andRX2
ports of all USRPs. In the case theTX/RX
ports are used, then only half-duplex is supported - Synchronization: All USRPs are connected to a stack of octoclocks (see below for more info) and can be configured to work in synchronized mode by selecting
external clock source
in the USRP sink or source configuration.
- 4 are of type N2944R (equivalent of X310)
