B200xx agc performance

Hi,

I’ve done a bit of an online search and not turned up anything (but this could be my lack of imagination at work) on AGC performance for a B200xx. I am specifically interested in the B20xmini, but results from any USRP based on the AD936x will suffice.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

If not, then what is a good way to test AGC for a USRP? Use a second USRP to transmit a modulated signal with large dynamic range?

Thanks for your help!

I was a little impatient and should have thought to look at the AD9361 users guide for more info. I’ve also dug through some list conversations and confirmed that the property tree for the B200mini indicates support for setting the AD9364 agc mode and parameters, though I am still figuring out how to use that info.

Anyone have any wisdom to impart regarding agc with the AD936x? Specifically in a bursty traffic situation (TDMA)?

thanks,

steven
