FM transmitter on many channels using gnuradio.
Tools needed:
- gnuradio 3.2
- grc (gnuradio companion)
- USRP with BasicTX daughterboard or any other card covering FM frequencies
In this example we will show how to make an FM software transmitter broadcasting simultaneously many stations on different channels. Unix FIFO are used as input (to create FIFO files, use "mkfifo" command).
Example of feeding FIFO files with mp3 radio streams.
#!/bin/sh mpg123 -r32000 -m -s http://maxxima.mine.nu:8000 >stream_32k.fifo & mpg123 -r32000 -m -s http://maxxima.mine.nu:8004 >lemixx.fifo & mpg123 -r32000 -m -s http://fbpc5.epfl.ch:8001 >banane.fifo &
Start FIFO streams and then run GRC or python script below.
