Can I get the symbol sequence？ about gr-lora_sdr HOT 6 CLOSED

Hello @XieyangSun,
You should be able to use the "File Sink" to see all the intermediate values. The "File Sink" block will just write binary files, therefore you should tell the program you use to read them how to interpret the file content.
As an example in MATLAB, you can use

f = fopen(['file_sink.bin']);
values = fread(f,'float32'); % other values of interest in different parts of lora_TX would be int32 or uint8
% Complex values are stored as alternating real and imaginary part, which can be put back to complex with
% values_complex = values(1:2:end)+1j*values(2:2:end);
fclose(f);

I hope this help you go in the right direction, let me know if you have other issues or questions!

As an additional comment, most blocks have the option "#define GRLORA_DEBUG" commented in the header file of the block (e.g. in gr-lora_sdr/lib/interleaver_impl.h). If you uncomment it and build again, the block prints some information about its input and output. It is mostly a leftover from the debugging of the block functionalities, so it is not polished, but that might still be interesting for you.

Thanks for your reply! I re-observed the implementation of modulate_impl.cc, and I noticed that Preamble and other lora header parts were added to the front of a packet in the Modulate block. (I used to think that the all symbols of the entire data packet were calculated and then mapped to the baseband signal. Now I realize this is not feasible due to the presence of 2.25 down-chirps...) What I can't determine is whether the int data stream saved by File Sink after gray_demapping is the decimal symbol of the original information?

For example, I'm trying to transmit 'hello-world',

Convert data-int.bin in my matlab to get 44 decimal numbers as:

It seems to be correct, because the maximum value of these decimal numbers does not exceed 2^7=128.

I'm not sure about what you mean by "original information", the input values of the Modulate block are directly use to modulate the LoRa chirps. The decimal values you observe contains all the content of the frame (i.e header, payload, CRC).

Ok, that's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the reply~

I'm glad I could help! I'm closing this issue then.
