前言

本文记录在 GNU Radio+USRP 实现 OFDM 收发时，在接收端 QPSK 星座图映射无“抖动”问题的解决方法，

---

一、遇到的问题

我遇到的问题是，现在搭建的 OFDM 模型在接收端做信道均衡时，接收端的 QPSK 星座图映射在有噪声的情形下并没有出现 “抖动” 现象。如下图所示，可以看到 OFDM 头和负载的 BSPK 和 QPSK 都是比较规则的。

经过初步的分析，问题应当是出在了接收端的 “信道均衡模块” (OFDM Frame Equalizer Module)， 这个模块不仅仅进行了信道估计和信道均衡，同时进行了最小距离分析并把含有噪声的点强行 “拉回” 星座图上的标准映射点。这个与我们一般意义下理解的“信道均衡” 是不同的，一般不会“拉回去” 。所以，现在的任务就是找出与 equalizer 相关的 .h 和 .cc 文件，阅读源代码，并对源代码进行修改。

二、解决方案

在 gnuradio/gr-digital/include/gnuradio/digital/ 文件夹下找到了所有与 equalizer 有关的 .h 文件
在 gnuradio/gr-digital/lib/ 文件夹下找到了所有上述.h 文件对应的.cc 源文件

最后直接定位到 ofdm_equalizer_simpledfe.cc

其源文件完整源码如下：

我们需要对其进行修改，有关其修改内容及解决办法已放到文末，有需求的通信爱好者可以自取。

三、重新编译安装

首先进入安装的时候的 gnuradio 文件夹下，之后进入 build 文件夹下，在这个文件夹下开启 terminal
之后在 terminal 中输入下面命令：

cd workarea/gnuradio/build

cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/python3 ../
make -j4 
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

四、验证

打开 OFDM 工程，运行可以看到下面界面：

1、发端效果图：

2、收端效果图

可以看到目前属于正常的状态

五、资源自取
