Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Questions about receiving signals of Inmarsat I-4 Satellites

Hi Sylvain,

May I know what's the setup you used for receiving the signal? The spectrum
looks very clear.

Best regards,

 This is what I found for inmarsat :

 Some 200 kHz channels and some 50 kHz channels.

 There is also some 30 kHz channels with a small 'X' periodically in
 the spectrograme. Those are GMR-1 and probably leak through from
 Thuraya (either reflections off buildings, or my antenna polarization
 sucks). Or maybe inmarsat has some GMR-1 carriers, but I doubt it.

 Cheers,

[Discuss-gnuradio] Questions about receiving signals of Inmarsat I-4 Satellites

2014-03-28 Thread Cheng Chi
Hi,

I am trying to receive signal from I-4 satellites of Inmarsat.

I found that I-4 satellites have one global beam with 25 KHz bandwidth and
several regional beams with 50 KHz bandwidth. However, I have scanned
through frequency band 1525-1559 MHz and haven't been able to find those
beams.

Anyone has experience of receiving Inmarsat satellites? Which downlink
frequency should I tune to?

I have tuned to frequencies listed on this website, still without any luck.
http://www.uhf-satcom.com/lband/

Setup:
- USRP N210 + WBX
- LNA with 30dB gain (ZHL-1217MLN)
- Iridium antenna (I am not able to get specific antennas for
Inmarsat...Iridium is at 1616 -1626.5 MHz and Inmarsat is at 1525-1559 MHz.
I have used this antenna to capture signals around 1531 MHz successfully. I
guess this antenna would not kill signals from Inmarsat.)

Best regards,
Cheng Chi

Hi Nick,

Thanks for your explanation :)

Today I have collected some data using the same setup, USRP N210 with GPSDO
+ WBX. The collection is done at the rooftop with open sky.
Gain: 20
Sampling Rate: 10M
Center Frequency: 1090M
Data format: complex float (Use GNUradio Companion for collecting data. I
think this should be the same as using uhd_rx_cfile?)

As shown below, the decoded data seems correct, but the timestamp
information is still quite strange. Is it because the modes_rx program
can't timestamp packets for saved data? Do you have any suggestion about
how to identify the Mode S packet from the raw data? (I've tried using the
preamble to cross correlate with the received data, but no success so far.)

Hi Nick,

Thanks.

Is it possible to treat the start of the save samples as time 0, then
timestamp following packets accordingly? Well, if not, I think it would be
a good feature to be added in the future.

   - You can also try more directional types of antenna like described

Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Help about using gr-air-modes

2014-01-27 Thread Cheng Chi
Hi Nick,

Thanks for your quick reply!

I have to use a 10M sampling rate in my case, but due to computer
constrain, modes_rx will cause overflow when used directly with -r
1000. I gauss it's because it's sampling data in float? I am using a
GPSDO with USRP.

So I record data in short at 10M sampling rate, convert from short to float
and then input to modes_rx. The output looks like this:
{{{

(speed 600-1200kt)
(23 0.) Type 4 (short surveillance altitude reply) from 2443b0 at
59800ft (GROUND ALERT)
(24 0.) Type 4 (short surveillance altitude reply) from 3b1fc3 at

(37 0.) Type 17 BDS0,9-1 (track report) from 7805dd with velocity
218kt heading 238 VS -1664
}}}

The timestamp are all zeros.

Another question is that if I use modes_rx, how to save the sampled complex
baseband signal? Is the data saved somewhere that I've missed?

Cheng Chi

 If you're using a USRP, you should be getting a timestamp. It's the second
 number printed, as in the following:
 (-14 *1.29258827811*) Type 0 (short A-A surveillance) from ab2984 at
 3000ft

 If you are using a GPSDO with your USRP, the printed time will be in UTC
 seconds. Otherwise, it will be in seconds since the application started
 running.

 Thank you for any help you can provide in this situation.

 I found that there's a file called air_modes_preamble.cc seems to
 provide the timestamp function. Does anyone know how to use this file
 separately?

[Discuss-gnuradio] Help about using gr-air-modes

2014-01-26 Thread Cheng Chi
Hi,

I am using gr-air-modes for decoding the air plane signal with USRP. I've
successfully used the modes_rx and modes_gui for decoding the mode-S
packets.

However, it seems that the modes_rx or modes_gui can't provide the
timestamp of the mode-S packets being decoded. Is there any option that I
can set to timestamp the mode-S packet? The reason I want this timestamp
function is that I want to know the decoded packet data correspond to which
part of the raw data (complex baseband data samples).

Thank you for any help you can provide in this situation.

I found that there's a file called air_modes_preamble.cc seems to provide
the timestamp function. Does anyone know how to use this file separately?

Best regards,
Cheng Chi

Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Where can I get gr-air-modes for GNUradio 3.6.5

2014-01-13 Thread Cheng Chi
Hi Nick,

Thanks. It works fine.

I've another question. When using the modes_rx program, is there any option
that I can specify to save the original sampled baseband data?

Best regards,

 Hi,

 I just pushed a tag called 3.6 representing the last commit of
 gr-air-modes which was 3.6-compatible. Please note that a lot of the newer
 features of gr-air-modes are unavailable in this version. To use this
 version, do a git remote update from the gr-air-modes folder, then git
 checkout 3.6.

 Best,
 Nick

 Hi,

 I try to install gr-air-modes from the git source, but it seems the code
 only works with GNUradio 3.7. May I know where can I find the old version
 which is compatible with GNUradio 3.6.5?

 Thanks.
