I need to make several independent collections of RF data at locations separated by 100 to 500 meters.
All locations have ethernet connections.
I need to be able to synchronize the collected data after the collection with other data which has GPS time stamps embedded.
Can a device like the USRP-2930 give me data which either has GPS time with the samples or has the GPS time stored at the start of the
collection?
I need to analyze the data for anomalies that may have occurred with other events over which I have no control, but do have time information
about.
If the 2930 can't do it, is there another product that can?

Hi,
If you have the 2930(s) and the NIUSRP driver you may be able to build what you want.
Please refer to the niUSRP EX Tx with GPS.vi and niUSRP EX Rx with GPS.vi examples which ship with the NI USRP driver.
You can select a time to start capture (which in turn gets converted to a a trigger time).
You will be using the GPS as timebase and reference clock source for both devices.

Thank you. That should do what I need.
