Title: Enhance Multi-Receiver Capability for Varied Frequencies
Description:
I would like to propose a feature request for readsb to include support for the simultaneous use of multiple receivers, each dedicated to different frequencies. Specifically, this would enable users to employ separate receivers for ADS-B and UAT (Universal Access Transceiver) frequencies concurrently.
Use Case:
Currently, readsb primarily focuses on receiving and decoding signals from ADS-B transponders at a specific frequency. With the growing adoption of UAT for additional aircraft information, it would be highly beneficial to have the capability to use a separate receiver tuned to the UAT frequency concurrently. This enhancement would provide a more comprehensive and versatile solution for users interested in monitoring both ADS-B and UAT transmissions simultaneously.
Requested Features:
Multi-Receiver Configuration: Allow users to configure and use multiple receivers within readsb, with each receiver dedicated to a specific frequency band.
Frequency Specification: Provide options for users to define the frequency for each receiver independently. For example, one receiver for ADS-B at 1090 MHz and another for UAT at a different frequency.
Enhanced Networking Support: Extend networking options to accommodate multiple receivers, allowing users to forward data from different receivers to distinct output ports or protocols.
Configuration Management: Include configuration parameters in the readsb configuration files or command line options to specify the details of each receiver, such as device type, frequency, gain, and network settings.
Benefits:
Expanded Coverage: Users can monitor multiple frequency bands simultaneously, expanding coverage and capturing a more comprehensive set of aircraft data.
Flexibility: Tailoring each receiver to a specific frequency allows for greater flexibility in adapting readsb to various aviation communication standards.
Real-time Monitoring: Improved real-time monitoring capabilities by simultaneously decoding and processing data from different frequency bands.
Note:
This feature request aims to enhance the versatility of readsb by accommodating users with diverse needs in the ADS-B and UAT monitoring space. The ability to utilize multiple receivers with different frequencies would contribute to the software's utility and relevance in evolving aviation communication scenarios.
