Interface Radio SDR pour récepteur GNSS multi constellations pour la continuité de positionnement entre l’intérieur et l’extérieur / SDR Radio Interface for GNSS multi constellation receiver for positioning continuity between indoor and outdoor

Mehrez, Hanen 08 July 2019 (has links)
Dans le but d’améliorer la disponibilité des services fournis par un récepteur, la conception d’un récepteur GNSS permettant de recevoir plusieurs signaux de toutes les bandes simultanément semble être la solution. Une architecture à sous échantillonnage RF optimisée de type SDR (Software Defined Radio) comportant un étage RF intégrable et reconfigurable et un étage de traitement numérique avec une implémentation logicielle du traitement en bande de base est défini pour ce récepteur GNSS, tout en répondant aux exigences des spécifications des standards GNSS : des réseaux radio cellulaires : GPS, Glonass, Galileo, Beidou. Un choix des composants discrets suite au dimensionnement system est effectué et ceci pour installer un prototype de validation expérimental. Ensuite nous nous s’intéressons à la caractérisation de la chaine RF afin d’étudier les limitations causés par la non linéarité et d’étudier la stabilité du prototype proposé. Un étage de traitement numérique des signaux IF, capturés à la sortie de l’ADC, est implémenté sous Matlab. L’acquisition de ces données permet la détermination des satellites visible à un instant donné qui nous permet éventuellement la détermination d’une position / In order to improve the availability of services provided by a receiver, designing a GNSS receiver to collect multiple signals from all bands simultaneously seems to be the solution. An optimized software-defined RF (SDR) sub-sampling architecture with an integral and reconfigurable RF stage and a digital processing stage with a software implementation of the baseband processing is defined for this GNSS receiver, while meeting the requirements GNSS standards specifications: cellular radio networks: GPS, Glonass, Galileo, Beidou. Many discrete components are selected after system dimensioning. Thus, experimental validation prototype is installed. Then we are interested in the characterization of the RF front-end in order to determine the limitations caused by the nonlinearity and to study the stability of the proposed prototype. A stage of digital processing of the IF signals, captured at the ADC output, is implemented under Matlab software. The acquisition of these data allows the determination of satellites visible at a given instant that allows us to determine a position

Software Defined Radio Short Range Radar

Kohls, Nicholas Everett 08 June 2021 (has links)
High cost is a current problem with modern radar systems. Software-defined radios (SDRs) offer a possible solution for low-cost customizable radar systems. An SDR is a radio communi- cation system where, instead of the traditional radio components implemented in hardware, many of the components are implemented in software on a computer or embedded system. Although SDRs were originally designed for wireless communication systems, the firmware of an SDR can be configured into a radar system. With new companies entering the market, various types of low- cost SDRs have emerged. This thesis explores the use of a LimeSDR-Mini in a short-range radar through open software tools and custom code. The LimeSDR-Mini is successfully shown to detect targets at a short range. However, due to the instability of the LimeSDR-Mini, the consistent detection of a target is not possible. This thesis shows how the LimeSDR is characterized and how timing synchronization and instability issues are mitigated. The LimeSDR-Mini falls short of operating reliable in a radar system and other SDR boards need to be explored as viable options. Test setups using coaxial cables and test setups using antennas in an outdoor environment show the instability of the LimeSDR-Mini. The transmitter and the receiver are asynchronous. The timing difference varies slightly from run to run, which results in issues that are exacerbated in a short-range radar. The bleed-through signal is the signal leakage from the transmitter to the receiver. The bleed-through signal prevents the detection of targets at a short-range. Feed-through nulling is a signal processing technique used to eliminate the bleed-through signal so that short- range targets can be detected. The instability of the LimeSDR-Mini reduces the effectiveness of feed-through nulling techniques.

Scalable Cognitive Radio Network Testbed in Real Time

Yu, Kevin Z 01 June 2021 (has links) (PDF)
Modern society places an increasingly high demand on data transmission. Much of that data transmission takes place through communication over the frequency spectrum. The channels on the spectrum are limited resources. Researchers realize that at certain times of day some channels are overloaded, while others are not being fully utilized. A spectrum management system may be beneficial to remedy this efficiency issue. One of the proposed systems, Cognitive Radio Network (CRN), has progressed over the years thanks to studies on a wide range of subjects, including geolocation, data throughput rate, and channel handoff selection algorithm, which provide fundamental support for the spectrum management system. To move CRN technology forward, in this thesis we propose a physical, scalable testbed for some of the extant CRN methodologies. This testbed integrates IEEE standards, FCC guidelines, and other TV band regulations to emulate CRN in real time. With careful component selections, we include sufficient operational functionalities in the system, while at the same time making sure it remains affordable. We evaluate the technical feasibility of the testbed by studying several simple CRN logics. When comparing a system with a selection table implemented to those with naive selection methods, there is more than a 60 percent improvement in the overall performance.

Remote Access and Service Discovery for a Vehicular Public Safety Cognitive Radio

Rangnekar, Rohit Dilip 28 July 2009 (has links)
The Virginia Tech Center for Wireless Telecommunications' (CWT) Public Safety Cognitive Radio (PSCR) addresses the radio interoperability issues that plague many of the existing public safety radios — disparate frequency bands, incompatible modulation schemes and lack of active channel detection features. The PSCR allows the operator to scan for active channels, classify the detected channels, connect to any of the recognized waveforms and begin analog audio communication as well as bridge two incompatible waveforms together. The PSCR, although very useful, unfortunately is not portable enough to be used by public safety officials. The power requirement, processing requirement and equipment is respectively large, hungry and bulky. In this thesis, a possible solution to the portability problem is addressed by installing the PSCR in a public safety vehicle and using a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) for remote access. The PDA allows the user to remotely scan, classify, talk, and bridge waveforms similar in operation to the PSCR. An ergonomically designed interface masks the channel and modulation selection procedure. This architecture can be extended to offer service to any remotely connected device. In the second part of this thesis, the concept of remote access is extended to a wide-area wireless public safety network. A public safety network consisting of heterogeneous devices is proposed utilizing a small number of backbone nodes. The major research focus of this section is the algorithm for distributing services across the network. Service discovery is optimized to reduce the overhead of service messages and multiple service distribution techniques are utilized depending on the location of the services. Simulation is performed to evaluate the performance of the service discovery protocol in terms of overhead, dissemination time and scalability. The proposed protocol is determined to be superior to the competition in the overhead and scalability tests. / Master of Science

Polyphase Symbol Timing Synchronization on a Software-Defined Radio

Lundberg, Georg January 2021 (has links)
Software-defined radio is a continuously developing technology applied in fields of mobile communications and among others. It is a radio communication system where software is used to implement parts of its functionality in an embedded system or computer. Devices which can transmit and receive different radio protocols based on software has major advantages. The ability to be able to reconfigure and change functionality on the fly to adapt to different environments is suited for multiple different applications, one of such is the environment in space. Distortions such as phase, frequency and timing offset all occur in such environment. The effects of these distortions can be reduced using different synchronization techniques in the receiver. A polyphase symbol timing synchronizer with two different timing error detectors, is designed in Simulink consisting of an 8-tap polyphase filter bank, a zero-crossing or Gardner timing error detector, a second order Phase-locked loop and a numerically controlled oscillator. The initial design uses floating-point precision. A fixed-point model is implemented using Xilinx System Generator and is used to generate a custom IP. Simulation is done by implementing a transceiver model with Simulink for the transmitter and parts of the receiver. The polyphase symbol timing synchronizer locks after about 4000 symbols for lower signal-to-noise and the Gardner timing error detector performs better than the zero-crossing error detector at higher signal-to-noise ratios.

Implementation of UAS-based P-band signals of opportunity receiver for root-zone soil moisture retrieval

Peranich, Preston 30 April 2021 (has links)
Root-zone soil moisture (RZSM) is an important variable when forecasting plant growth, determining water availability during drought, and understanding evapotranspiration as a flux. However, current methods indirectly estimate RZSM using data assimilation, which requires time-series data to make model-based predictions. This is because direct measurement requires a lower frequency signal, typically P-band and below (<500MHz), to reach root zone depths and, in turn, necessitates a larger antenna to be deployed in space, which is often unfeasible. A new remote sensing technique known as Signals of Opportunity (SoOp) reutilizes transmitted communication signals to perform microwave remote sensing. This means that SoOp platforms need not include a transmitter, but rather rely on passive radar technology to make measurements. This thesis details the development of a UAS-based P-band SoOp receiver instrument. This platform will be used to progress the state-of-art in techniques for direct measurement of RZSM.
