在uhd下使用usrp2和n系列

1、在 UHD 下使用 USRP2 和N 系列将映像文件装入 SD 卡中 （仅对 USRP2）提示 !谨慎使用命令 usrp2_card_burner.py 。如若指向错误的设备 节点，可能会重写硬盘。请确认 -dev= 指向 SD 卡。提示 ! 尽管理论上 USRP2 可以使用第三方 SD 卡。但是有些类型的 SD 卡不能同 CPLD 进行交互：该卡 可能是 SDHC ，它不支持同 CPLD 的交互。 该卡有意外的时间特性。鉴于上面的这些因数，建议使用随 机的 SD 卡。使用 Unix 烧卡工具 sudo /share/uhd/utils/usrp2_card_burner_gui.py- OR

2、 - cd /share/uhd/utilssudo./usrp2_card_burner.py -dev=/dev/sd -fpga= sudo./usrp2_card_burner.py -dev=/dev/sd -fw=使用选项 -list 可获取可能的原始设备清单。 list 将会剔除 容量太大无法装入 SD卡的磁盘扇区和设备。 Linux, Mac OS X, 和 Windows 都具 有该 -list 选项。使用windows 烧卡工具/share/uhd/utils/usrp2_card_burner_gui.py将映像文件装入板上闪存中 （仅对 USRP-N 系列 ）USRP-

3、N系列产品可以通过网络进行重新编程来更新或更改固件( firmware )和 FPGA映像( images )。但每当在更新映像( images )过程中，总 是在系统重新启动( powercycling )之前对 FPGA 和固件两者的映像烧结。这便可确保设备一旦被重启，其映 像文件与之配套。使用 Unix的网络烧卡工具sudo/share/uhd/utils/usrp_n2xx_net_burner_gui.py- OR -cd /share/uhd/utils-fw=./usrp_n2xx_net_burner.py -addr=地址总是 192.168.10.2o./usrp_n2xx

4、_net_burner.py -addr=-fpga=使用Windows 的网络烧卡工具 /share/uhd/utils/usrp_n2xx_net_burner_gui.py 设备的恢复 - Device recovery and bricking载入有问题的映像文件可能会招致设备处于无法工作的状 态。幸运的是， USRP-N 系列可以启用安全（只读）映像模式。如若启用安全映像模 式，用户便可试图再次装入映像文件。壳体内的按钮（ S2） 便是安全模式按钮。在上电启动过程中 按下该按钮便可启动安全映像模式。持续按住该按钮直到前 面板的LED 从闪烁到稳定（ blink and remains

5、olid ）。在安全模式中， USRP-N 设备的 IP 配置网络 - Setup networkingUSRP2 仅支持千兆级以太网，所以其无法同10/100 Mbps接口直接相互工作。 尽管如此， 10/100 Mbps 接口还是可以 通过一个千兆级的以太网交换机间接同USRP2 相连接。配置主机接口- Setup the host interfaceUSRP2的通过千兆级以太网的通信是基于 IP/UDP 层。其缺省 IP 地址为192.168.10.2 。这样只需配置计算机侧一个静态 IP 地址便可使其相互通信。推荐使用 IP 地址 192.168.10.1 和子网掩码255.255.2

6、55.0.备注：在使用 UHD 情况下，如若 USRP2的 IP 地址没有被指定，应用软件便会使用 UDP 广播的数据包来定位 USRP2 。存在这样一些情况，防火墙 软件会阻碍 UDP 广播的数据包。在此建议更改或取消防火墙相关功用。 单口多机化 - Multiple devices per host 为最大化数据处理能力，建议一个以太网接口配置一台 USRP2 设备。尽管如此，通过千兆级的交换机也可以同多 台设备相互连接。无论哪种情况，每个以太网接口单元都必 须有自己的子网，其相关的USRP2 的地址应当处于其子网范围内。例如：USRP2 设备 0 的配置 :以太网接口 IPv4 地址 :

8、改 USRP2 IP 地址的先决条件是必须清楚其正在使用的地址，网络也必须 如上所述地被恰当的配置成功。然后运行下面的命令：cd /share/uhd/utils./usrp_burn_mb_eeprom-args= -key=ip-addr -val=192.168.10.3方法 2（仅适用于 Linux）: 此方法假定在对设备现在使用的 IP 地 址不清楚的情况下。它使用以太网的原始数据包短接（ bypass ）IP/UDP 协议层而直接同 USRP2 通信。如下运行命令：cd /share/uhd/utils sudo./usrp2_recovery.py-ifc=eth0 -new-i

9、p=192.168.10.3通信问题 - Communicationproblems首次构建一个开发平台时，碰到各种各样的 USRP 通信问题是不足为奇的。下面便是一些简化的问题和诊断的 建议。防火墙 - Firewall issues 在没有配置设备的IP 地址的情况下，设备查询机制便会通过各个以太网接口广 播 UDP 数据包来试图建立相互间的通信。众多防火墙会阻碍对这些 广播信息的反馈。如若（如此，只能）禁止系统的防火墙功 能、或明晰需确认的设备的 IP 地址。在此情况下的建议是：要么关闭防火墙、要么建立一 个规则为端口号为 49152 的 UDP 的数据源建立通道。“Ping ”设备 -

10、 Ping the deviceUSRP响应 icmp echo 。成功的 ping 意味着设备已经被成功地启动，也意味着希望的 IP 地址被 成功的配置。ping 192.168.10.2 监视串口 - Monitor the serial outputRead the serial port to get debug verbose from the embedded microcontroller.The microcontroller prints useful information about IP addresses,MAC addresses, control packets,

11、 fast-path settings, and bootloading. Use a standard USB to 3.3v-level serial converter at230400 baud. Connect GND to the converter ground, and connect TXDto the converter receive. The RXD pin can be left unconnected asthis is only a one-way communication.USRP2:Serial port located on the rear edgeN2
