 Use OEDL script to execute hurdle3 transmit and receive benchmark scripts from the grid. 
 
-In this tutorial we'll use the USRPs on the grid for FFT-based spectrum sensing. Each USRP (centered on a frequency with specified bandwidth) will collect data into an OML server for post processing. For details on available USRP2s on the grid, please check the status page in [https://www.orbit-lab.org/loginService/ControlPanel Control Panel] or check the [http://www.orbit-lab.org/wiki/Hardware/fDevices/gUSRP#USRPdevices available USRP2 HW table].

 == Hardware / Software Resources utilized ==
  1. Two grid nodes with USRPs.
- 2. ''baseline-gnu-12-04-32bit.ndz'': disk image loaded onto nodes. This image has all the pre-compiled - software required to configure the USRPs and analyze recorded data. The USRP2's interface with the node is already configured.

  3. Orbit's Arbitrary Waveform Injection System: used to inject noise or simple signal into RF environment. [http://www.orbit-lab.org/wiki/Software/bAM/mInterf#InterferenceAggregateManager More information of this generator can be found here.]
  4. Packet server: This is server that resides on the grid console and used by a transmitting node to send data packets over the air via USRP.
- 5. dc.rb: this is the ODEL experiment script to run the transmit and receive scripts.
