Receive P3i / OGN to show Pilot Aware, gliders and ultralights #5

Open blinken opened 4 years ago

blinken commented 4 years ago

Background

P3i (https://pilotaware.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Protocol.pdf) is the open protocol that Pilot Aware uses to transmit beacons from aircraft. Currently we only receive ADS-B, but frequency hopping on the SDR should make this possible.

Proposal

Write a custom SDR backend that receives multiple open protocols via frequency-hopping (P3i and FANET).

Consider also whether I can leverage the GPU on the Pi to accelerate the signal processing and decoding (maybe this is too much work).
