Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] OFDM Implementation

You seem to be quite new to Linux, what do you intend to do for your Master thesis? Gnuradio is not something you can master in a couple of months.

To go to a directory, you need to use the 'cd' command. Ie
cd /usr/local/bin

My benchmark_ofdm code is not in /usr/local/bin so when you get to that folder, do a 'ls' to see if the code is there. If not, you can run
locate benchmark_ofdm_tx.py

The results will show you where the file is in your system.

Good luck,
Johnny

Hi Sumit,
Thanks you so much for ur detailed explanation . i really appriciate your
help.
I am following the same steps as you mentioned earlier but iam getiing this
message when i am entering these comands in terminal. here is the messages .

address@hidden:~$ /usr/local/bin
bash: /usr/local/bin: is a directory
address@hidden:~$ directory/usr/local/bin
bash: directory/usr/local/bin: No such file or directory
address@hidden:~$ /usr/local/bin
bash: /usr/local/bin: is a directory
address@hidden:~$ benchmark_ofdm_tx.py-h
benchmark_ofdm_tx.py-h: command not found

when i enter this comand i get this result
address@hidden:~$ directory/usr/local/bin
bash: directory/usr/local/bin: No such file or directory
address@hidden:~$
No such file or directory.  how to access that directory? do i need to run
some other commands before that ?
what could be the problem ? any suggestion ?
