Re: [EXTERNAL] Request for GNU Radio OOT for Sending and Receiving VITA49 Data in Amazon Format on AWS

The AWS Ground Station Vita49 spec is close to but not identical to the DIFI spec.

I forked gr-difi a while back to fix some bugs and add compatibility with AWS GS. I got as far as adding a new option that supports AWS GS for downlink. However, I didn't get around to adding the uplink capability.

If you know c++ you can perhaps get a good starting point from this fork:

Kind regards,

I don't know what "Amazon format on AWS" means, but VITA-49 is an industry standard. That said, it is extremely customizable, so it's always best to refer to the documentation of the data producer when decoding it.

 

I have used the driver provided by CyberRadio Solutions (formerly owned by G3, now owned by Epiq) found here: https://github.com/CyberRadio/gr-cyberradio (because I was using one of their radios). I hope it's helpful

Dear GNU Radio Community,

I hope this message finds you well. I am currently looking for a GNU Radio Out-of-Tree (OOT) module that supports sending and receiving VITA49 data using the Amazon format on AWS. I need this to help validate my C++ implementation. If anyone has experience with this or can share relevant links or resources, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards,
Moses
