GNU Radio - benchmarkTX Code Walk Through

The document provides a walkthrough of the benchmark_tx.py code, which is used to transmit data in GNU Radio. It imports necessary modules, constructs a transmitter flowgraph, allows the user to set transmission options, generates packets from raw data or a file, and sends the packets through the flowgraph. The main function constructs the flowgraph, starts the transmission, and keeps the flowgraph running until the user interrupts it to stop execution.
