About

Software radio decoding written in Java. The idea of this project is to get blocks from the gnuradio and implement them in Java. This gives the following:

  • No need for tooling. You could use gnuradio-companion to build a working pipeline, then use the same blocks to build the pipeline in Java.
  • All Java benefits: run same binaries on multiple platforms without compilation. Single programming language instead of Python and C++. Better tooling like IDE, profilers and memory analyzers.

Demodulators

jradio supports high-level generic demodulators. They convert I/Q signal into the stream of soft bits (0-255).

Modulators

Some generic modulators. They take hard bits and produce I/Q signal.

De-framers

De-framer is a component that converts soft stream of bits into the frames of specific protocol.

Auxiliary tools

Quite often decoding require some additional tooling. jradio has some.

Forward error correction:

Randomization

CRC

Most likely the algorithm name can't say you much, so it is better to check corresponding test case. Here is list of supported implementations:

Satellite protocols

Low-level blocks

All blocks meant to be binary compatible with gnuradio versions. This will ensure you got the same results when moving from gnuradio-companion to Java.

Doppler correction

Doppler correction could be made using SigSource and Multiply blocks. Here is the sample code:

PassPredictor predictor = new PassPredictor(tle, currentLocation);
SigSource source2 = new SigSource(Waveform.COMPLEX, sampleRate, new DopplerValueSource(sampleRate, satelliteFrequency, correctPeriodMillis, startTimeMillis) {

	@Override
	public long getDopplerFrequency(long satelliteFrequency, long currentTimeMillis) {
		return predictor.getDownlinkFreq(satelliteFrequency, new Date(currentTimeMillis));
	}
}, 1.0f);
Multiply mul = new Multiply(source, source2, true);

Where "getDopplerFrequency" can be calculated using orekit or predict4java.
