UDP Socket

Send data to UDP Socket.

    class UDPSocket {
        constructor UDPSocket(String deshost, int destport);
        bool sendIQ( IQData iq ); // send IQ to UDP
        bool sendBytes( Array );
        bool sendString( txt );
        close();
    }

Constructor

  • Object: UDPSocket('name')
var p = new UDPSocket('test');

.sendString

Send string (text object).

.sendString(txt);
- Example

// run 'nc -ul 8888' in bash
var s = new UDPSocket('127.0.0.1',8888);
if( s.sendString('Hello world') == false ) {
    printf('Udp Error');
    exit();
}

.sendBytes

Send bytes (Uint8Array object)

.sendBytes(bytes);
  • Example
// run 'nc -ul 8888' in bash
var s = new UDPSocket('127.0.0.1',8888);

// sendString
if( s.sendString('OneTwoThee') == false ) {
    printf('Udp Error');
    exit();
}

// sendBytes
var buff = new Array();
for( var ascii=48 ; ascii < 68 ; ascii++ ) 
   buff.push( ascii );
s.sendBytes( buff );
s.close();

.sendIQ

Send IQ blocks

.sendIQ( IQBlock, channel, IQFormat);

Available fields are :

  • IQBlock : IQ object to send
  • Channel : 0 (RXA), or 1(RXB)
  • IQFormat :

    • 0 : CF32
    • 1 : CS16
  • Basic example

// run 'nc -ul 8888' in bash
var s = new UDPSocket('127.0.0.1',8888);
var iq = DSP.tone(440, 80000, 48e3);
s.sendIQ(iq,0,1);
  • Example
// open and tune RF input
var rx = Soapy.makeDevice({'query' : 'driver=sdrplay' }) ;
rx.setRxCenterFreq(465.5);
rx.setRxSampleRate(2e6);
rx.setGain( 10 ) ;


// engage streaming
var fifo_from_rx = Queues.create( 'input');
if( !fifo_from_rx.ReadFromRx( rx ) ) {
    print('Cannot stream from rx');
    exit();
}

// Prepare UDP
var s = new UDPSocket('0.0.0.0',8888);
if( s.sendString('OneTwoThee') == false ) {
    printf('Udp Error');
    exit();
}




var IQBlock = new IQData('iq');
print('starting rx process');
while( fifo_from_rx.isFromRx() ) { 
    if( IQBlock.readFromQueue( fifo_from_rx ) ) {   
       //IQBlock.dump();
//      s.sendIQ( IQBlock,0,1 );  //CS16
        s.sendIQ( IQBlock,0,0 );  //CF32

       }
    }
}

.close

Close the active connection

.close();
