Leandvb and ADALM-Pluto

Post by g4dcp » Sat Oct 21, 2017 5:13 pm

Just a query on how you can use leandvb with the adalm-pluto?

It there a howto or FAQ on this. I suspect one needs to build leandvb for the pluto and feed the results out to other devices.

I have seen the video of this being done but can't find any details to replicate it.

Many Thanks

Yes, you can compile leandvb on another ARM machine such as a Raspberry Pi and run the statically-linked binary on a Pluto. This is similar to what I recommended for using leandvb on Outernet embedded receivers:

You will also need a command-line utility to capture IQ and feed it into leandvb; iio_readdev or ad9361-iiostream in the libiio source tree is a good start.

Hopefully I will release howto articles and an easy-to-use solution with pre-compiled sdcard images before the next batch of devices ships (mid November according to Mouser). Having an onboard CPU that can serve a web GUI is definitely a game changer for low-cost SDR.
