Does Matlab support system objects for X410 USRP?

Does Matlab R2024a support system objects such as comm.SDRuTransmitter or comm.SDRuReceiver with the X410 USRP when using Wireless TestBench? If not, is this something that will be available in future updates?

Hi,

Comm.SDRuTransmitter and comm.SDRuReceiver are not supported for the X410 at the moment, but it is under consideration for a future release. It would be helpful to know what your use case is that is not supported by other Wireless Testbench functionality such as basebandReceiver, basebandTransmitter, etc.

Kind regards,

Neil

I just found out that this code will be implemented on a system running R2021b on Linux, so Wireless Testbench is actually not an option. Is the X410 even supported with the Communications toolbox and USRP Support package, or is my best bet to just use Matlab to interact via the command line and Ettus HDL?

[Neil MacEwen]

I'm afraid MATLAB has no support for the X410 before R2023a. You will likely need to cook up something yourself to use Ettus drivers and then pass the data to MATLAB for processing, if that's what you need to do.

Alright, I figured that might be the case. Thanks for the help!
