Decimation, interpolation, downsampling, upsampling, antialiasing filter. It contains rfx2400 daughterboards which perform both transmit tx and receive rx functionality. In communications and in typical gnuradio applications, decimation is most commonly used to reduce the sampling rate of an oversampled signal, in order to reduce the computational complexity of the system. You get a 3 db increase in signal to noise ratio every time you double the decimation rate. This flowgraph generates a sine wave and plots it in time and frequency along with a slider that allows us to dynamically adjust the sample rate while we hold the frequency of the sine wave constant. If we upsample by factor l to get vm, the desired portion of vej. The three seperate gain stages offer much greater control over optimization of signal snr and interference management. However, you can do interpolation prior to decimation to achieve an overall rational factor, for example, 45.
