HacDC starts funding for USRP2 - Bringing RF / software radio research to DC!Do you wish you had truly universal communication device? A device that is a cell phone and can connect using GPRS, 802.11 Wi-Fi, 802.16 WiMax, a satellite hookup or any emerging standard, as well as GPS, GLONASS or both?The HacDC has started a fundraising campaign to acquire a Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRPv2) from Ettus Research. Some projects that the USRP can be used for:
HacDC will use the USRPv2 to research Radio Frequency (RF) / Software Radio! / Digital Signal Processing (DSP) and open up classes and teach these subjects to the DC community. As always our classes and study groups our free and open to the public, so donate, join (www.hacdc.org) and help build a new RF / software radio group in DC! DONATE HERE: http://pledgie.com/campaigns/4801 Below are the details of the USRPv2 from Ettus’ website: The Universal Software Radio Peripheral product family allows you to create a software radio using any computer with a USB2 or Gigagbit ethernet port. Various plug-on daughterboards allow the USRP and USRP2 to be used on different radio frequency bands. Daughterboards are available from DC to 5.9 GHz at this time. The entire design of the USRP family is open source. The USRP and USRP2 work with GNU Radio, a free-software (open source) framework for the creation of software defined radios. GNU Radio works on all of the following operating systems: * Linux Picture below available via carrierdetect under Creative Commons Share Alike Attribution license:

You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!

I nearly squealed with delight upon reading this. Why? First of all, I don’t know that many other people who are (a) into electronic music to begin with and/or (b) also into producing it. Also, this kind of thing seems pretty niche, especially for a city like DC where (I wasn’t aware) there was any demand for electronic music workshops of any kind.

I have always wondered if there would be a device which can act as a cell phone as well as a device that can be connected using GPRS, Wi-Fi, Wi-Max, satellite hook ups etc. However I thought of that dream as something which is unattainable until now. It seems like HacDC has started raising funds for USRP2( Universal Software Radio Peripheral). The purpose is to bring RF or that software radio research to DC.
