gr-dvbs2acm is a GNU Radio OOT module including transmitter and receiver blocks for software-defined radio and (primarily) message passing simulation.
This repository consists of two parts: transmitter and receiver. The transmitter is a fork of drmpeg's gr-dvbs2 project. The receiver is a fork of igorauad's gr-dvbs2rx project. In particular, this fork adds VCM (Variable Coding and Modulation) support to receiver blocks with the same stream tags interface as in the transmitter blocks.
This project is licensed under GPLv3 and was developed primarily for non-commercial research, experimentation, and education. Please feel free to contribute or get in touch to request features or report any problems.
The only available installation method is compiling from source. You will need to clone this repository first:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/AsriFox/gr-dvbs2acm.git
cd gr-dvbs2acm/
Install dependencies on Ubuntu:
apt install cmake pkg-config doxygen gnuradio-dev \
graphviz libsndfile1-dev libspdlog-dev \
pybind11-dev python3-packaging
Install dependencies on Fedora:
dnf install cmake doxygen gnuradio-devel \
fftw-devel gmp-devel graphviz \
libsndfile-devel spdlog-devel \
pybind11-devel python3-packaging \
Build:
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$(gnuradio-config-info --prefix) ..
cmake --build . -j$(nproc)
Or use the convenience script build.sh.
Install:
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig
It's possible to use Igor Freire's Ubuntu-based Docker image (link) for GNU Radio OOT development. A Dockerfile is available with a recipe to build gr-dvbs2acm blocks in the container.
First, install Docker. After that, install docker-compose (e.g. on Ubuntu: apt install docker-compose).
Build the image:
docker compose build
Run the image:
docker compose run -d grc
This will launch an instance of gnuradio-companion inside the container with gr-dvbs2acm blocks ready to use. You can navigate to /src/gr-dvbs2acm/examples to use the provided example flowcharts.
