|
||
|
|
||
|

|
||
|

![blah2 example display](./example.png "blah2")
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Features
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Currently only support for the [SDRplay RSPDuo](https://www.sdrplay.com/rspduo/).
|
||
|
- 2 channel processing for a reference and surveillance signal.
|
||
|
- Designed as a passive radar, but can also work as an active radar.
|
||
|
- Outputs delay-Doppler maps to a web front-end.
|
||
|
- Record raw IQ data by pressing spacebar on the web front-end.
|
||
|
- Saves delay-Doppler maps in a *json* array.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Services
|
||
|
|
||
|
The build environment consists of a docker-compose.yml file running the following services;
|
||
|
|
||
|
- The radar processor responsible for IQ capture and processing.
|
||
|
- The API middleware responsible for reading TCP ports for delay-Doppler map data, and exposing this on a REST API.
|
||
|
- The web front-end displaying processed radar data.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Install docker and docker-compose on the host machine.
|
||
|
- Clone this repository to some directory.
|
||
|
- Install dependencies from Dockerfile.
|
||
|
- Edit the config.yml for desired processing parameters.
|
||
|
- Run the docker-compose command.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
git clone http://github.com/30hours/blah2
|
||
|
cd blah2
|
||
|
vim config/config.yml
|
||
|
sudo mkdir /opt/blah2
|
||
|
sudo chmod a+rw /opt/blah2
|
||
|
|
||
|
sudo docker-compose up -d blah2_frontend blah2_api
|
||
|
mkdir build && cd build
|
||
|
cmake .. && make && cd ..
|
||
|
./bin/blah2 -c config/config.yml
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
The radar processing output is available on [http://localhost:49152](http://localhost:49152).
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Future Work
|
||
|
|
||
|
- The blah2 service can be built in Docker, except for the SDRplay API due to its dependence on *systemd*. This service needs to be built manually with *cmake* at present.
|
||
|
- A CFAR detector has not yet been implemented.
|
||
|
- Support for the HackRF and RTL-SDR using front-end mixer to sample 2 RF channels in 1 stream.
|
||
|
- Occasional segmentation fault from a mutex issue.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## FAQ
|
||
|
|
||
|
- If the SDRplay RSPduo does not capture data, restart the API service using `sudo systemctl restart sdrplay.api`.

## Contributing
|
||
|
|
||
|
Pull requests are welcome - especially for adding support for a new SDR.
