C16 file format complex, float...? #246

What data contain these files? complex, float..? Could not find any information about these files. May be someone could advise how to open these files in GNU Radio?

furrtek commented 5 years ago

C16 means Complex 16-bit. It's a stream of 16-bit integer pairs for I and Q. Try the "ishort to complex" block in GRC.

Thank You! That is i was looking for!

Can I decrypt the C16 file format? Man code is definitely what I lack in. I put the file in a hex edit but it shows nonsense because it's encrypted.

furrtek commented 5 years ago

It's not encrypted. Why would it be ? You're seeing pairs of signed 16-bit values as stated above.
