Open IP over VHF/UHF #PiDay #Radio #RaspberryPi @Raspberry_Pi
The Rowetel blog discusses sending Internet Protocol (IP) traffic over VHF and UHF radio frequencies.
My initial goal for this work is a “100 kbit/s IP link” for VHF/UHF using Codec 2 modems and SDR. One application is moving Ham Radio data past the 1995-era “9600 bits/s data port” paradigm to real time IP.
I’m also interested in IP over TV Whitespace (spare VHF/UHF spectrum) for emergency and developing world applications. I’m a judge for developing world IT grants and the “last 100km” problem comes up again and again. This solution requires just a Raspberry Pi and RTLSDR. At these frequencies antennas could be simply fabricated from wire (cut for the frequency of operation), and soldered directly to the Pi.
