What is USRP for GNU Radio?

The USRP Source Block is used to stream samples from a USRP device (i.e. act as the receiver). There is no need to use a Throttle block when a hardware source like a USRP Source is used, because the USRP acts as the throttle. There are two methods of setting parameters and adjusting them while running.

What is bandwidth on a spectrum analyzer?

The resolution bandwidth is the width of the bandpass filter that is swept across the frequency range. Decreasing the resolution bandwidth increases the ability of the spectrum analyzer to resolve signals at discrete frequencies and causes the sweep rate to take a longer period of time.

How does GNU Radio work?

GNU Radio is a free & open-source software development toolkit that provides signal processing blocks to implement software radios. It can be used with readily-available low-cost external RF hardware to create software-defined radios, or without hardware in a simulation-like environment.

Is GNU Radio and SDR?

We all know GNU Radio as a powerful framework for developing streaming, real-time signal processing applications for Software Defined Radio (SDR) on general purpose processors.
