C++ 接口问题


  • How we can write Linux C++ application program to interface with USRP?

Here it how we can do it:

1) The gnuradio project provides a complete USRP interface library. When compiling the interface program, these library must be linked with our code by using G++ library command (-lusrp).

2) To show the used procedure, suppose we have written a C++ USRP interface program called usrp_test_c++.cpp. To compile this program, we use the following command:

$ g++ usrp_test_c++.cpp -o testusrp -lusrp

where g++ is the GNU C++ compiler, usrp_test_c++.cpp is our c++ source file, testusrp is our output file, -lusrp is the USRP C++ library.

Note: The following USRP two header files should be in the same compilation directory: fpga_regs_common.h, fpga_regs_standard.h

3) To run the output file from Linux command line:

./testusrp
  • Is there a simple C++ USRP interfacing demonstration program?

Below is the list for such program

// Simple C++ USRP interfacing demonstration program
//
//
// This program was derived and modified from test_usrp_standard_rx.cc

  • Currently, all USRP daughterboards control is handled from Python. Where I can find the C++ drivers for these boards?

The gnuradio team is developing an all C++ daughterboards drivers [I don’t know if they finished it]. There are some gnuradio users that developed their own C++ drivers but they did not publish it yet [I Think They Should].

The only published C++ driver is for DBSRX daughterboard by Gregory W Heckler.

  • Where can I obtain Gregory DBSRX driver ? How to use the driver ?

The DBSRX C++ driver can be obtained from GPS-SDR code repo.

We can use:

$ g++ db_dbs_rx.cpp usrp_sdr.cpp -o testdriver -lm -lusrp -lpthread

Note: The following files should be in the same compilation directory: db-dbs_rx.cpp, db_dbs_rx.h, fpga_regs_common.h, fpga_regs_standard.h.
