  • Inventors, Technologists and Entrepreneurs
    19 November 2013 We, the undersigned, are a group of inventors, technologists and entrepreneurs. Many of us have founded technology businesses; we have invented many of the protocols, systems and devices that make the Internet work, and we are collectively listed as the inventors on over 150 patents. We write to you today about the U.S. patent system. That system is broken. Based on our experiences building and deploying new digital technologies, we believe that software patents are doing more harm than good. Perhaps it is time to reexamine the idea, dating from the 1980s, that government-issued monopolies on algorithms, protocols and data structures are the best way to promote the advancement of computer science. But that will be a complex task, and one we don't expect to happen quickly. Unfortunately, aspects of the problem have become so acute they must be addressed immediately. Broad, vague patents covering software-type inventions—some of which we ourselves are listed as inventors on—are a malfunctioning component of America's inventive machinery. This is particularly the case when those patents end up in the hands of non-practicing patent trolls. These non-practicing entities do not make or sell anything. Their exploitation of patents as a tool for extortion is undermining America’s technological progress; patent trolls are collecting taxes on innovation by extracting billions of dollars in dubious licensing fees, and wasting the time and management resources of creative businesses. Many of us would have achieved much less in our careers if the trolling problem had been as dire in past decades as it is now.

  • Internet of Things Spectrum Monitoring and Localization
    MQP 2A18 Internet of Things Spectrum Monitoring and Localization A Major Qualifying Project Submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science By: _________________________________ Lauren Getz _________________________________ William Schwartz _________________________________ Katherine Smith Project Advisors: ____________________________________________ Professor Stephen J. Bitar, Electrical & Computer Engineering- Advisor-of-Record ____________________________________________ Professor Michael J. Ciaraldi, Computer Science -Co-Advisor ____________________________________________ Professor Alexander M. Wyglinski, Electrical & Computer Engineering- Co-Advisor Abstract A system which localizes indoor sub-1GHz transmission signals provides a low cost and effective alternative to traditional signal sensing and localization. The system uses a pre-existing WiFi network, PlutoSDRs, and a web server to visualize the estimated location of the transmitted signals. The system achieved 2.5-meter accuracy under ideal conditions satisfying the goal of 3- meter accuracy set forth by the team. i Acknowledgements We would like to thank our advisors, Stephen Bitar, Michael Ciaraldi, and Alex Wyglinski for their mentorship throughout the duration of this project. ii Executive Summary Implementing localization with SDR devices is more cost effective and more accurate than other spectrum sensing products currently on the market. With the development of Internet of Things (IoT), many smart devices are increasingly using wireless communication, making localization of these devices an important security measure. Using the PlutoSDR, signals were effectively localized within 3-meter accuracy on the 900MHz band. Problem Statement IoT devices can pose a threat to a secure network. Since there are a lot of known IoT vulnerabilities [1], many malicious actors will target them in order to gain access to an otherwise secure network.

This thesis aims to compare two different ways of implementing these functions, or waveforms. The Software Communications Architecture (SCA) is an open standard developed by the United States Department of Defense. It uses a CORBA interface environment to make waveform applications interoperable and platform independent. This method of developing SDR is compared to an open-source initiative going by the name GNU Radio. Two waveform applications are developed, one transmitter using SCA, and one receiver using GNU Radio. The analog radio interface is simulated using the sound cards of two regular PCs.

  • I/Q Data Guide V.1
    I/Q Data Guide v.1 Guide for acquiring I/Q data with the Gnu Radio Framework Flagstaff, AZ March 5, 2017 Edited by Michael Finley Northern Arizona University Dynamic and Active Systems Laboratory CONTENTS I/Q Data Guide v.1: Project Manual Contents 1 Project Description 3 2 Methods/Procedures 4 3 MATLAB Processing 6 4 Recommendations 8 Page 2 of 9 I/Q Data Guide v.1: Project Manual 1 Project Description The aim of this project is to construct an unmanned aerial system that integrates a radio telemetry receiver and data processing system for efficient detection and localization of tiny wildlife radio telemetry tags. Cur- rent methods of locating and tracking small tagged animals are hampered by the inaccessibility of their habitats. The high costs, risk to human safety, and small sample sizes resulting from current radio telemetry methods limit our understanding of the movement and behaviors of many species. UAV-based technologies promise to revolutionize a range of ecological field study paradigms due to the ability of a sensing platform to fly in close proximity to rough terrain at very low cost. The new UAV-based (UAV-RT) system will dramatically improve wildlife tracking capability while using inexpensive, commercially available radio tags. The system design will reflect the unique needs of wildlife tracking applications, including easy assembly and repair in the field and reduction of fire risk. Our effort will focus on the development, analysis, real-time implementation, and test of software-defined signal processing algorithms for RF signal detection and localization using unmanned aerial platforms.

Great for non-trivial business-logic (You still understand while your client is long time lost in his own specs) Maintainable even after 150 last-minute changes (Don't tell me it never happens) Maintainable even after 10,000 lines of code (Maintenance = €) - Totally Free & Truly Open Source (PEPs, PSF, ...) - Portable on most OS, including embed systems, including GUI lib - Many different uses: Small helper-scripts (Any Sys-admins in the room ?) Softs with GUI (Cool to build cross-OS heavy clients) Serious daemons (numerous frameworks & protocol libs, API-Hour being the best) Scripting in other softs (GNU Radio, Blender, OOo, AutoDesk Maya, ArcGIS, GIMP, Minecraft, Corel, Rhino 3D ...)

  • Gr-Ais I Suse12.3
    gr-ais i SuSE12.3 First a Warning! Never use gr-ais in real navigation it's neither stable or reliable. The description below is just made for ”amusement” in the purpose of getting ”real-time” updated AIS-messages to OpenCPN! Suggestions for suitable DVB-T USB-dongles you can get from here: http://www.reddit.com/r/RTLSDR/comments/s6ddo In he examples below we used two different USB-recievers: One Newsky TV28T Coax DVB-T DAB DAB+ FM Stick SDR with RTL2832U-chipset and E4000-tuner, respectively a LIFEVIEW NO DVB-T USB DELUXE LV5T with rtl2832 chipset and fc0013 tuner. -We both live in in different places in Stockholm, neither of us, living within 1000 m from the sea (or lake), 10 resp. 45 m above sealevel, have got a visible contact with a harbor. We both used the small indoor antennas that came with the dongles. Prerequisites The description below comes from an installation in OpenSuSE12.3 with kernel 3.7.10-1.1-desktop, in both cases x86_64. The reason we used such a new version was due to a basic misunderstanding. We thought that the cipset-modules rtl2832 and tuner-modules fc0013 or e4000 respectively were necessary for being able to install gnuradio. Kernel support for those modules were first integrated in kernel 3.6 →. Many observations after our installation indicated that our assumption was wrong. -Finally we tried it out by shutting them -and the other dvb-t-modules- down using blacklist/rmmode. To our surprise gnuradio worked perfectly without them! Note: the modules rtl2832 and fc0013/e4000 are not necessary for running gnuradio, rtl-sdr, osmosdr or gr-ais.

  • Usage of the Gstreamer Framework for the Generation, Analysis, Processing and Visualization of Sonar Signals
    Volume 18 HYDROACOUSTICS USAGE OF THE GSTREAMER FRAMEWORK FOR THE GENERATION, ANALYSIS, PROCESSING AND VISUALIZATION OF SONAR SIGNALS KRZYSZTOF CZARNECKI, DORIAN DĄBROWSKI Gdansk University of Technology Faculty of Electronics, Telecommunications and Informatics Department of Marine Electronic Systems Narutowicza 11/12, 80-233 Gdańsk, Poland [email protected] In this paper, the usage of the GStreamer framework in applications of classical digital signal processing is discussed. Especially, its adaptation regarding sonar technique is presented here. Signal generation, analysis, processing, and visualization are implemented as GStreamer plugins. The new plugins and the structure of data transmitted through the GStreamer pipeline are both briefly discussed. The introduced plugins are published as free software under the GROJ project. INTRODUCTION The need for an open software platform given over to application development is evident. Moreover, technical support, the availability of documentation, and a lack of dependence on the hardware and operating system is desirable here. Essentially, the benefit of using such a platform is source code portability, software standardization, and finally, cost reduction in the development process. These requirements are fulfilled by The GStreamer framework (GSF) [1] and The GNU Radio Toolkit [2,3], amongst others. The considerations in this paper are focused on the GSF and its use in the analysis and processing of sonar chirp signals. GStreamer is an open source multiplatform framework originally dedicated to the stream- ing and processing of multimedia data. It is known to work on Linux, Solaris, Microsoft Win- dows, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, and many other popular operating systems. It is also widely em- ployed as an engine for many multimedia applications, such as media players and capture en- coders, for example: Banshee, Kaffeine, Rhythmbox, Sound Juicer, Totem and so on.
