Hi Shuai,

I understand that you are encountering an error 'ID: sdrr:driver:CreateDriverCouldNotCreateDriver' while running the simulation. The screenshot attached in the comments reflects that the RTL-SDR radio is 'Not Found'. To troubleshoot this issue, I recommend the following steps:

1. Uninstall the USB driver: Start by uninstalling the USB driver for the radio. This will ensure a clean installation and eliminate any potential conflicts.

2. Install the USB driver: After uninstalling the driver, proceed with installing the USB driver again. Follow the steps mentioned in the article to ensure proper installation and establish communication between host and radio hardware.
