Experiments

For the aim of this project, mainly three different types of experiments have been realized:

1. Applications using code in Matlab for publications and theoretical demonstrations mainly.
2. Applications using the SDR platform for trying the algorithms with real components.
3. Applications deployed in real networks without using the SDR platform.

SDR Experiments

For this experiments, the USRP B210 and GRC 3.7.10 has been used, as explained in detail in the documentation section.

First, the GNU tutorials have been done, for learning how to use this tools. Following this tutorials a simulated transmission of data using a QPSK modulation has been realized. Also, a more complex simulation with the problems of real channels has also been performed, working with ISI and multi-path channels.

Also, an OFDM transmitter and receiver have been created. This has been done step by step, not using the predefined blocks that GRC offers for this, with the main idea of using an adaptive transmission.
