Discussion and technical support related to USRP, UHD, RFNoC
View all threadsHello
I am using UHD source in gnu radio to capture data from usrp. I am then passing this data to throttle and then to file sink. My data sample is 64 bit (complex 32 bit) and I am capturing at the rate of 200 MSps. How to get correct 2 to 3 seconds of data without any data loss as I am seeing data loss after decoding if I just do as the way I am doing. I am seeing "oooooo" in the console as well while writing to the file. Please help. I am attaching the grc file to capture data and write to a file.

Hi Snehasish,
You should not be using a Throttle block when you have any actual hardware within the flowgraph.
Note, in order to write 200 MS/s to disk, you'll most likely need a PCIe based SSD, or SSD Raid configuration. I've had success with an Intel 750 Series PCIe based SSD to write 200 MS/s to disk, until it was full. Another option is to use a RAM disk.
