rtl-sdr over multicast & multiple decoders
by James Sharp 31 Dec '12

31 Dec '12

I've been playing around with rtl-sdr as a way to stream trunking radio and air band traffic. I've done a bit of research and found people who are using multiple dongles, one to digest the control channel and one or more to tune and receive the voice channels as the talk groups come and go. They're also using multiple dongles and/or squelch scanning to stream airband signals Around here, all of the channels of the trunking system as well as all of the "interesting" fit inside the bandwidth of a dongle running at 3.6Msps. So, my question is this: Would it not be more efficient to have a single tuner dongle outputting all of its samples over multicast (or into a shared memory segment for that matter, if you want to stay on the same host) and then having a bunch of decoder processes listening to the samples and decoding what they need out of them?

decode raw
by Vitaliy Kulchevych 21 Dec '12

21 Dec '12

Hi, all! I want parse and decode raw data from my sdr device. I have RTL2832 based DVB-T receiver. I want get data from receiver via rtl-sdr sotware, parse and decode, and sent completed data through websocket to client in browser. Where I can find description of returning data from rtl_sdr, rtl_tcp. Specs, docs? Or what is the best way to do something like this my idea? Thanks! -- live free or die;

Maybe I lost some previous message, but I don't remember to have already seen that here. Anyway... From http://ehsm.eu/index.html: Harald Welte will present the Osmocom project he founded. In particular, there will be OsmocomBB, a free software GSM stack evolved enough to actually make phone calls and send SMS (plus all the possible explorations of the GSM system), and OsmoSDR, a small-size, low-cost software defined radio device. *am* --------------------------------------------------------- Andrea Montefusco iw0hdv http://www.montefusco.com tel: +393356992791 fax: +390623318709 ---------------------------------------------------------

Information about the sampling rate of the RTLSDR driver
by frederic.evennou＠orange.com 17 Dec '12

17 Dec '12

Hello, I am testing a DVB-T USB key including the Elonics E4000 chipset and I want to check the sampling rate of this card. I set up the sampling rate at 2.048 Ms/s (rtlsdr_set_sample_rate), and my storing buffer is 8*1024 bytes, so I expect receiving 1024 I/Q samples every 500 microseconds. I am using the rtlsdr_read_async function to read the samples. Unfortunately the loop in my program indicates that 8*1024 bytes are read every 2 milliseconds. I am using the gettimeofday function to measure the time in microseconds. Does this result mean that the best I can do is to read some samples every 2 ms at 2.048 Ms/s. This would mean that I am missing 1.5 ms of signal. Is that correct or I am doing something wrong ? Thanks for your help.

patch for rtl_tcp
by TAKAHASHI Tomohiro 14 Dec '12

14 Dec '12

Hi all, I'm new to this list. First, I want to say thank you to authors and contributors of this great work. I have set up a receiver server on Raspberry Pi with rtl_tcp, it seems it works good and can receive various signals with client gr-osmosdr on gnuradio or gqrx. But unfortunately I have encountered a trouble. I found rtl_tcp raise segv on reconnected from client. I investigated cause of segv and succeed to make a patch. Fixed rtl_tcp works good on raspberry pi(raspbian) and windows(mingw). I also make a startup script for debian/raspbian. I have push fixed code on github branch. https://github.com/edy555/rtl-sdr/tree/rtltcpFixSegv Please consider to pull this patch into original osmocom repo. Thanks, Tomohiro --- TT twitter: @edy555 blog: http://ttrftech.tumblr.com (in japanese)

Incorrect Sampling Rate
by Knee, Peter A 13 Dec '12

13 Dec '12

All, I have been experimenting with the Realtek dongle and am noticing some strange behavior. There is one sampling rate that I can not seem to get to match up with the number of samples that I'm receiving asynchronously. Specifically, when I try to sample at 514 kHz, I receive samples at approximately half this rate. Has anyone experienced something similar? I've tried looking through the Osmocom driver but everything looks good and it's really odd that everything looks good for other sampling rates. Just for reference, when I run rtl_sdr, I get the following device information: Found 1 device(s): 0: ezcap USB 2.0 DVB-T/DAB/FM dongle Using device 0: ezcap USB 2.0 DVB-T/DAB/FM dongle Found Elonics E4000 tuner Any help would be appreciated! Thanks, Peter

Update: New and improved airplane stuff
by keenerd 12 Dec '12

A few new features have been pushed in the last two days. Most significant is rtl_adsb, a fast and simple ADS-B decoder. It is not the most sensitive decoder (Prog's and rtl-1090 pick up a few more planes) but it works fairly well. Of course it lacks the interactive maps of other software, however the output can be piped into fancier programs or across the network with netcat. To use it, just run "rtl_adsb". It does not need any options and can pick up plenty of signals with only the stock antenna. Here is a snippet if you plan to use rtl_adsb over the network: while true; do rtl_adsb -R | nc -lp 8080; done Where -R enables raw mode, 8080 is the port of choice, and the while loop restarts netcat after network disconnections. Rtl_fm also got a few tweaks to make it work better with AM voice airband. Rtl_fm could always do scanning but it needed every frequency listed out explicitly. Kind of awkward with hundreds of airband channels. So now you can use ranges: rtl_fm -M -f 118M:137M:25k -s 12k -l 280 | .... That will scan every voice channel. Adjust squelch level for local conditions. Also of note are two little convenience features in rtl_fm. If the output filename is omitted, stdout is assumed. And the use of k/M/G in addition to e3/e6/e9. -Kyle http://kmkeen.com
