Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] file source with gr-ieee802.11 tx

[Marcus Müller]

Hi Simone,
The wifi_tx example GRC comes with a Socket PDU source.
Just send UDP packets to the port specified containing a IEEE 802.11 
packet's amount of data per UDP packet; netcat/nc/ncat is sadly no good 
for this, because it doesn't allow specification of packet sizes.

You can also use a file source, stream to tagged stream, tagged stream 
to PDU flow graph.

To be honest, GNU Radio is kind of lacking a simple "take n items from 
the input stream and generate a PMT pair (n, items), send that over your 
message port" block, which would take roughly 10 lines of python to 
write (and not much more C++) -- so you might as well do that.

Best regards,
Marcus
