QT GUI Time Raster Sink

From GNU Radio
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This is a QT-based graphical sink that takes in numerical streams and plots a time_raster (spectrogram) plot.

This sink can plot messages that contain either uniform vectors of float 32 values (pmt::is_f32vector) or PDUs where the data is a uniform vector of float 32 values.

Note: This block does not limit the items per second it consumes, even though it has an "Update Rate" parameter; it will drop samples if the incoming data rate is higher than the product of the number of columns and the update rate. It is up to the user to choose an update rate that represents his processing needs.

Parameters

(R): Run-time adjustable

Multiplier (R)
Vector of floats as a scaling multiplier for each input stream
Offset (R)
Vector of floats as an offset for each input stream
Number of Inputs
