Signal Discovery Activity

Overview

To become more familiar with SDRs and GNU Radio, you will search for a unique signal at an unknown frequency in this activity. I will be transmitting the signal from the front of the class.

Objectives

  • Learn how to use GNU Radio to find signals.

Requirements

  • Using an SDR, design a GNU Radio flowgraph to find a signal being transmitted from a nearby location. The only information I will give you is the broad range of frequencies it will be on: 902 MHz to 928 MHz.

  • Answer the following questions:
    • What is the signal?
    • What is the frequency of the signal?
  • Upload your answers and flow graph to Learning Suite.
