Hello Guoan,
You can use the BB_DIRECT_RF flag in this manner,
bbInitiate(handle, BB_STREAMING, BB_DIRECT_RF);
In this mode you will receive 80MS/s 16-bit direct RF samples. In the frequency domain, you will measure frequencies from 0Hz to 40MHz, but there is a low pass filter that is roughly around 27MHz. The LO conversion stages are bypassed in this mode, resulting in exceptional RF performance. The samples are full scale.
Regards,
A.J.
