Hi there all,
Due to the lack of documentation and myself being an amateur in the field of SDR’s, I am struggling to get a fully working FMCW. My setup is as follows, I transmit at 2.4GHz, with a 20MHz sweep, I have analog mixers, which mix the transmitted and received a signal to get the beat frequency, then due to the SDR’s bandwidth limitations, I upconvert the beat signal to 10MHz which I have set my receiver to. The system seems to be set up correctly, however, I am not receiving the beat signal when processing the received data. It is worth a mention that I am writing the data to an array to export to a file later. I have set this up in such a way that it doesn’t affect the TX timing. Could someone please let me know what is wrong with the code I am using, and how I can get a working receiver.
Here is the Github Repo with the code written so far, please let me know asap!
Extra Info:
-
Due to the way I have built from source, I have included the limesuite.h file path, this must be changed to run the code.
-
This code has been set up for 2 receivers, of which only one is currently uncommented and working. This is all I need for now though, a single working receiver is good enough.
-
The transmission has been tested through all mixers until the RX input channel of the SDR. All outputs have been found to be correct on the oscilloscope.
Kind Regards
