NAME

       gr_plot_psd_c - plot power spectral density using GNU Radio

SYNOPSIS

       gr_plot_psd_c: [options] input_filename

DESCRIPTION

       Takes a GNU Radio binary file (with specified data type using --data-type) and displays the I&Q data versus time as well as the power spec-
       tral density (PSD) plot. The y-axis values are plotted assuming volts as the amplitude of the I&Q streams and converted	into  dBm  in  the
       frequency  domain  (the	1/N  power adjustment out of the FFT is performed internally). The script plots a certain block of data at a time,
       specified on the command line as -B or --block. The start position in the file can be set by specifying -s or --start  and  defaults  to  0
       (the start of the file). By default, the system assumes a sample rate of 1, so in time, each sample is plotted versus the sample number. To
       set a true time and frequency axis, set the sample rate (-R or --sample-rate) to the sample rate used when capturing the samples.  Finally,
       the  size  of  the FFT to use for the PSD and spectrogram plots can be set independently with --psd-size and --spec-size, respectively. The
       spectrogram plot does not display by default and is turned on with -S or --enable-spec.
