Getting timestamp from Ettus USRP X300 series

Hello,

I am using an Ettus X310 + TwinRX + GPSDO.

Is it possible to get the timestamp when receiving signals from the radio? As far as I understand, the time information of the first sample is contained in the metadata. However, metadata are not provided when signal data from the radio are received. Is there a way to get metadata?

The feature appears available with other hardware, for example with the Embedded Series radios using the capture function. Is there any chance that the feature will be added also for the X300 series or is it a matter of hardware capability?

Thanks.

Hi,

Time stamps for USRP is supported in R2022a, that is currently available as pre-release.

The support package for pre-release can be downloaded from this link https://in.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/40406-communications-toolbox-support-package-for-usrp-radio and can be installed with MATLAB R2022a pre-release.

Dear,

I have been trying to acquire signals from USRP X300 from both the receiver channels in simulink. It seems there is a problem in MATLAB 2020 version and above. I have also tested it in MATLAB 2022. It does not work while it works in MATLAB 2019. Has anyone encountered this problem

Hi,

can you let us know the error you are seeing while running the receiver.

Thanks
