== Spectrum visualization with Fosphor ==

=== Description ===

This tutorial illustrates use of [https://archive.fosdem.org/2015/schedule/event/rfnocfosphor/attachments/slides/804/export/events/attachments/rfnocfosphor/slides/804/fosdem2015_rfnoc_fosphor.pdf RFNoC Fosphor block for spectrum visualization]. RFNoC Fosphor block is the FPGA accelerated version of [https://projects.osmocom.org/projects/sdr/wiki/Fosphor gr-fosphor (CPU/GPU version)]. As any other RFNoC blocks, RFNoC Fosphor can be instantiated on 3rd generation USRP devices, and can be used in conjunction with gnuradio-companion on the host computer. This tutorial demonstrates grc RFNoC Fosphor application on USRP-2974s in [COSMOS testbed wiki:Hardware/sdr/usrp2974] and USRP X310s in [ORBIT]. 

It also illustrates use of [https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/ MobaXterm] and jumphost to for remote display.
