I should have acknowledged that the article I wrote is derived from the
presentation of Antoine Blais from the French Civial Aviation University
at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apf5fvGSYHc&t=201s
who does not share GNU Radio flowgraphs but all the underlying
principle of angle of arrival measurement in his excellent presentation.

VOR DEMODULATION

2024-07-19 Thread Muhammad Anas
Dear GNU Radio Community,

I am working on vor signal reception using USRP N210 in GNU Radio
Companion, Could you please help me how to do its demodulation (suggest me
some blocks) as it has both AM and FM modulated signal. I am doing this on
Windows 10, it is possible to do phase comparison without using python
block.

I would greatly appreciate any guidance or suggestions you can provide to
help me.

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards,

Muhammad Anas

Making a VLF SSB receiver

2024-07-19 Thread Julian Aranguren
Hi everyone !

Long story short, in the context of a broader project I am attempting to
recreate on GNUradio an SSB receiver for VLF, meant to function with an
ultrasonic hydrophone. The goal here is to demodulate everything between 20
and 40khz (or higher, with a similar bandwidth) down to between 0 and 20.
Basically the same as a bat detector or a surface-diver communication
device.

A few colleagues and I made a flowgraph by copying and adapting the SSB
receiver from the GNUradio tutorial (
https://wiki.gnuradio.org/index.php/Simulation_example:_Single_Sideband_transceiver#The_Weaver_method_of_SSB_demodulation).
It works, but it doesn't really do what we exactly want and we are
struggling to get it to work that way, as we're unfamiliar with some of the
GNUradio terminology and online tutorials tend to be unclear.

How would you change the flowgraph to work the way we seek to ? I noticed
in particular that this version has a fine tuning option which we believe
to be superfluous (with a 17.5khz carrier), and a 16khz carrier.

Thanks a lot !

Making a VLF SSB receiver

2024-07-19 Thread Steve Hageman
Hello Julian - It is unclear as to what is not working for you, so it is 
kind of hard to suggest improvements.


In situations like these it is important to have a test signal to 'play 
around with' so you can study and understand the issues more fully.


I would either,

1) Record one or more sample signals for later playback into your 
processing flowgraph.


or

2) Make a flowgraph that generates a test signal that you can then pass 
into your signal processing flowgraph.


Then you can play the test signals and go block by block of your signal 
processing flowgraph to understand what is going on.


Hope this helps

Hi all,

Just posted my blog for this week: https://kaylacomer.github.io/blog/. I
will not work on the project next week, as I had something come up, but I
am planning to add another week on to the end of the coding period.

Best,
