3 | 16 | h1. Welcome to [[OsmoSDR]] |
|

6 | [[OsmoSDR]] is a 100% Free Software based small form-factor inexpensive |
||
7 | 1 | SDR (Software Defined Radio) project. |
|
8 | 2 | laforge | |
9 | 16 | If you are familiar with existing SDR receivers, then [[OsmoSDR]] can be thought |
|
10 | of something in between a "FunCube Dongle":http://tetra.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/Funcube_Dongle (only 96kHz bandwidth) and a USRP (much more expensive). |
||
11 | For a very cheap SDR (with limited dynamic range), you can use the DVB-T USB stick using the RTL2832U chip, as documented in [[rtl-sdr]]. |
||
12 | 2 | laforge | |
13 | 16 | It consists of a USB-attached [[Hardware]], associated [[Firmware]] |
|
14 | as well as [[GrOsmoSDR]] gnuradio integration on the PC. |
||
15 | 1 | ||
16 | 13 | laforge | The first generation hardware (1.2 MS/s) was available to interested developers from http://shop.sysmocom.de/ |
17 | 1 | ||
18 | 3 | laforge | We are currently doing a re-design for the second-generation hardware, featuring higher sample rate and other goodies. |
