We intend to work with USRP-X310 transceiver system using WBX-120 or
CBX-120 daughterboards.
Couple of inquiries ragarding this.

  1. Is the UHD driver for X310 sopported in the LabView environment?  Also
    can we use LabView FPGA module to program the FPGA in USRP-X310?

  2. Is there a standard method to calibrate the USRP-X310 hardware in order
    to ensure the measurement accuracy as well as
    minimize the IQ imbalance, DC offset etc. We do have all sorts of
    measurement equipments in our lab.

Thanks

Yes on both questions.

For IQ imbalance and DC offset, we have standard measurement tools that
will also correct those errors as well as possible.
