pub fn frequency( &self, direction: Direction, channel: usize, ) -> Result<f64, Error>

Get the overall center frequency of the chain.

• For RX, this specifies the down-conversion frequency.

Returns the center frequency in Hz.

pub fn set_frequency<A: Into<Args>>( &self, direction: Direction, channel: usize, frequency: f64, args: A, ) -> Result<(), Error>

Set the center frequency of the chain.

• For RX, this specifies the down-conversion frequency.
• For TX, this specifies the up-conversion frequency.

The default implementation of set_frequency will tune the “RF” component as close as possible to the requested center frequency in Hz. Tuning inaccuracies will be compensated for with the “BB” component.

The args can be used to augment the tuning algorithm.

• Use "OFFSET" to specify an “RF” tuning offset, usually with the intention of moving the LO out of the passband. The offset will be compensated for using the “BB” component.
• Use the name of a component for the key and a frequency in Hz as the value (any format) to enforce a specific frequency. The other components will be tuned with compensation to achieve the specified overall frequency.
• Use the name of a component for the key and the value "IGNORE" so that the tuning algorithm will avoid altering the component.
• Vendor specific implementations can also use the same args to augment tuning in other ways such as specifying fractional vs integer N tuning.
