Introduction -USRP

• Software defined radios are wireless devices commonly used

for wireless research prototyping and deployed applications
• It has highly channel density.
• It has unique capabilities of the device, such as reliability,
fault-tolerance, and remote management

Features-USRP X410

• RF capabilities - 4 TX, 4 RX, 1 MHz to 7.2 GHz, tunable up to 8

GHz Up to 400 MHz bandwidth per channel.
• Digital interfaces - 2 QSFP28 (10/100 GbE, Aurora)1 2 iPass+
zHD (cabled PCIe Gen3 x8)2 Ethernet (1 GbE to PS) 2 USB-C

Features-Octoclock CDA 2990 and CDA-G 2990

• this allows developers to time-align multi-channel systems

across the globe.
• 8-Way Time and Frequency Distribution (1 PPS and 10 MHz)
-Convenient Solution for Multi-Channel Synchronization.
-Use with MIMO Capable N-Series Devices for Coherent
System.
-External 10 MHz/1 PPS Source Required for Octoclock CDA
2990.
• Imp point- When using USRP for an UE , integrated inbuilt clock
refrence is needed so Octoclock CDA-G 2990 is recommended.

Applications of USRP

• Wireless Testbeds- Scalable MIMO prototype

• Remote Radio Heads - Small cells to be deployed in denser
networks
• Building testbed infrastructure is complicated, and it is more
valuable for researchers to focus on their ideas.
