Clocking and Timekeeping in the USRP
CHDR Packet Types and Structure
CHDR or "Compressed Header" packets are a derivative of the VITA 49 (VRT) protocol. While the protocol is proprietary to USRP devices, mapping to and from VITA-49 is a trivial task. All packet routing in b2xx and "Gen 3" USRPs uses the CHDR protocol.
There are 4 types of packets used in the USRP:
- Data
- Flow Control
- Command
- Command Response
