High-performance narrow-band receiver hardware.

SuperH_rev4





To compile:
install the gcc arm toolchain version gcc-arm-none-eabi-7-2018-q2-update/
https://developer.arm.com/tools-and-software/open-source-software/developer-tools/gnu-toolchain/gnu-rm/downloads/7-2018-q2-update

In the firmware directory, create a symbolic link to the toolchain:
e.g. ln -s ../gcc-arm-none-eabi-7-2018-q2-update arm-toolchain
Then type 'make'

The firmware can decode the follow protocols in stand-alone mode (NO PC):

Available SuperH+ built-in/stand-alone demod/decoders
------------------
FM Analog narrow/med/wide (mode fm)
AM Analog narrow/med/wide (mode am)
IQ 16-bit over UDP (mode iq) + GNURadio Driver
P25P1 Voice + Trunking Control Channel (mode p25)
DMR Voice + ConnectPlus Trunking Control Channel (mode dmr)
ADSB Mode-S - Console output (mode adsb)   This mode uses 2 separate ADCs in single ended mode with 2 Msps / 8-bit.
ACARS - Console output (mode acars)
FLEX-4FSK-1600 - Console output (mode pagers, fm)
POCSAG 1200 - Console output (mode pagers, fm)


1st IF is 1.5 GHz (high IF like a typical spectrum analyzer)

Baseband filters are 10 - 150 kHz in 16 steps. 70dB adjacent rejection, 100+ dB alternate rejection.

NCO based final tuning.

20dB pre-LNA step-attenuator front-end (controlled by AGC)

AGC + DSP extends dynamic range to over 150dB.

ACARS receives long messages >350 miles away with an indoor antenna and 0 bit errors.

DC coupling and extremely stable TCXO makes sub-Hz demodulation with software-based DC offset correction possible

I/Q ADCs SNR is >= 82 dB in 16-bit differential mode of operation (10-150 kHz baseband filter mode).
