Wideband Capture Demonstration

This tutorial discusses how to set up Cyan for wideband capture, and processing.

1. Prerequisties

In order to download and capture, you will need the following files.

TODO: List files here.

NOTE: Example programs and files should be hosted on the Per Vices Example repo.

The program or learning what the different parameters do, you can run the following within dump1090:

2. Physical Setup

Show physical set up with external signal generator going to a 1:2 splitter, whose outputs each go to 1:4 splitters. Each of the outputs from the two 1:4 splitters (8 outputs total), should go to a different Rx SMA input port.

Set the frequency generator to 1.5GHz.

3. Capturing data

Show the script command we use to capture data. Set the LO to 1.3GHz, and the sample rate to

$ example-command --with-options foo

3.1 Discussion

What does the above program do, and how does it work.

4. Processing data

Discuss how we can process the data to show it in python. Provide an example that parses two files, and displays them in python or matlab/octave.

$ example-command --with-options foo

4.1 Discussion

What does the above program do, and how does it work.
