The comms/rtl-sdr port
rtl-sdr-2.0.2 – software to turn RTL2832U into an SDR
Description
DVB-T dongles based on the Realtek RTL2832U can be used as a cheap SDR
(software defined radio), since the chip allows transferring the raw I/Q
samples to the host, which is officially used for DAB/DAB+/FM demodulation.
RTL-SDR provides some tools to work with these devices:
rtl_eeprom: EEPROM programming tool
rtl_fm: general purpose analogue demodulator
(narrow band FM, wide band FM, AM and SSB)
rtl_sdr: tunes the device and captures raw data to a file
rtl_test: check the possible tuning range
rtl_biast: turn the RTL-SDR.com bias tee or any GPIO ON and OFF
rtl_power: simple FFT logger
rtl_adsb: simple ADS-B decoder (aircraft tracking)
rtl_tcp: provides a network server for remote access to an SDR
