Open Live Script

Create a baseband transmitter object, specifying a radio setup configuration previously saved in the Radio Setup wizard.

bbtx = basebandTransmitter("MyRadio")
bbtx = 
  basebandTransmitter with properties:

          RadioGain: 10
    CenterFrequency: 2.4000e+09
         SampleRate: 250000000
           Antennas: "RF0:TX/RX"

Set the baseband sample rate and center frequency. 

bbtx.SampleRate = 122.88e6;
bbtx.CenterFrequency = 2.2e9;

Generate random transmit waveform.

txWaveform = complex(randn(1000,1),randn(1000,1));

Transmit the generated waveform continuously with the radio associated with the baseband transmitter object using the default antenna.

transmit(bbtx,txWaveform,"continuous");

Stop the continuous transmission after 5 seconds.

pause(5);
stopTransmission(bbtx);
Open Live Script

Create a baseband transceiver object, specifying a radio setup configuration previously saved in the Radio Setup wizard.

bbtrx = basebandTransceiver("MyRadio")
bbtrx = 
  basebandTransceiver with properties:

          TransmitRadioGain: 10
    TransmitCenterFrequency: 2.4000e+09
           TransmitAntennas: "RF0:TX/RX"
           CaptureRadioGain: 10
     CaptureCenterFrequency: 2.4000e+09
            CaptureAntennas: "RF0:RX2"
            CaptureDataType: "int16"
       DroppedSamplesAction: "error"
                 SampleRate: 250000000

Set the baseband sample rate.

bbtrx.SampleRate = 122.88e6;

Set the transmit and capture center frequencies. 

bbtrx.TransmitCenterFrequency = 2.2e9;
bbtrx.CaptureCenterFrequency = 2.2e9;

Generate random transmit waveform.

txWaveform = complex(randn(1000,1),randn(1000,1));

Transmit the generated waveform continuously with the radio associated with the baseband transceiver object using the default transmit antenna.

transmit(bbtrx,txWaveform,"continuous");

Capture IQ data with the radio associated with the baseband transceiver object using the default capture antenna.

[data,~] = capture(bbtrx,milliseconds(3));

Stop the continuous transmission after data capture is complete.

stopTransmission(bbtrx);

Input Arguments

collapse all

Baseband application, specified as a basebandTransmitter object or basebandTransceiver object.

Note

The first object function call in which you specify this object as an input requires a few extra seconds to load the application onto the hardware.
