On Wednesday, November 13, 2024 at 6:30 PM ET, the IEEE Consultants’ Network of Northern New Jersey will host a presentation on Prototyping amateur radio systems with SDR and Raspberry Pi.

About the Topic

This presentation will describe efforts to integrate USB Software-Defined Radio (SDR) modules with a Raspberry Pi 4 running the Raspberry Pi OS 12 (Bookworm) and open-source radio applications such as Software-Defined Receiver (GQRX) and weak signal communication software (WSJT-X) to create a modular portable amateur radio system.

Radio and RF apps, including a GNU Radio FM receiver flowgraph, Quite Universal Circuit Simulator (Qucs) with microstrip RF filter layout simulation, an Octave OpenEMS electromagnetic field solver, a KiCad layout example, and Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller programming examples using the Arduino IDE and the VS Code IDE, are also explored.
