Hi all,
I am happy to announce the official release of CGRAN: The Comprehensive
GNU Radio Archive Network. Summary: CPAN->Perl as CGRAN->GNU Radio.
https://www.cgran.org/ (initial release only supports SSL, sorry!)
What Is CGRAN?
---------------
The Comprehensive GNU Radio Archive Network (CGRAN) is a free open
source repository for 3rd party GNU Radio applications that are not
officially supported by the GNU Radio project. CGRAN provides a
subversion repository for users to develop or submit new applications,
and wiki access for full project documentation. Trac (our web interface)
provides unique features such as a browser for the subversion repository
and a ticket system for users to file issues with projects in CGRAN.
Why?
----
Getting code into the GNU Radio code base is difficult. Share your GNU
Radio applications without the hassle of FSF copyright, obtaining a GNU
Radio developer account, integrating into the GNU Radio branch, and
following GNU Radio coding conventions. They are there for a reason,
but they are not for everyone... and not all applications are for the
official GNU Radio code base! ;)
CGRAN RELEASE BONUS: Architectural Latency Measurements
-------------------------------------------------------
As a CGRAN "first project" release for others to follow, I have added
code and applications which measure the latency of data as it flows from
GNU Radio to the USRP and back. This gives you an idea of GNU
Radio->USRP round trip time, GNU Radio->kernel latencies, and
kernel->USRP round trip time. This can certainly be extended... all you
need is a CGRAN account to work on it :)
Two initial projects I would love to see in CGRAN!
-----------------------------------------------------
* BBN 802.11 code (CGRAN would allow others to keep it up to date)
* Univ. of Utah 802.11b Decoder
I am open to suggestions about CGRAN, it's for the community... so
community feedback is appreciated. Of course, report issues.
Enjoy!
George
