We usually think of the RTL-SDR as a low-cost alternative to a “real” radio, but this incredible project spearheaded by [Rodrigo Freire] shows that the two classes of devices don’t have to be mutually ...

It is sort of the American dream: start a company in your garage and have it get crazy big. After all, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and even Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard did it. Seems hard to do these ...

Like almost everything else in electronics, radios are becoming processors with software that communicate via a small amount of RF I/O circuitry. Surely, then, the rise of software-defined radio (SDR) ...

Traditionally, working with RTL-SDR required a deep understanding of radio frequency (RF) principles and a significant investment in sourcing compatible components. This complexity often posed a ...

Software Defined Radio (SDR) is “a radio communication system where components that have been typically implemented in hardware are instead implemented by means of software on a personal computer or ...
