#ispace expects to deploy at least five lunar orbiting #satellites 🛰️ by 2030, which will serve as critical infrastructure for the #communications 📶 system.

Critical to the new business will be the development of #GroundStation 📡 services on Earth capable of stably receiving large-capacity […]

Viasat will deliver advanced S/X/Ka-band ground antennas to support Astralintu in the delivery of equatorial ground station network services.

A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words This image, made with the MacOS DataGraph program by Paul Williamson KB5MU, shows that the Opulent Voice transmit first in first out buffer (FIFO) wasn’t properly reset at the start of the program. This means that there was data already in the transmit FIFO at startup. This is not desirable because when we want to … Continue reading "A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words"

TX IIO Timeline Implementation for Opulent Voice by Paul Williamson KB5MU In the August 2025 Inner Circle newsletter, I wrote some design notes under the title IIO Timeline Management in Dialogus — Transmit. I came to the tentative conclusion that the simplest approach might be just fine. This time, I will discuss the implementation of that approach. You might want to re-read … Continue reading "TX IIO Timeline Implementation for Opulent Voice"

Opulent Voice Working Over-the-Air with Framing Opulent Voice digital radio protocol with very high quality voice sent over the air with real Barker code synchronization words and basic framing is working great in our PLUTO SDR implementation. This works for both terrestrial and space applications in amateur radio. https://github.com/OpenResearchInstitute/pluto_msk

IIO Timeline Management in Dialogus — Transmit The next step in debugging/optimizing the design of the transmit pipeline in Dialogus (https://github.com/OpenResearchInstitute/dialogus) is to get control of the timeline. Frames are coming in via the network from Interlocutor (https://github.com/OpenResearchInstitute/interlocutor), being processed by Dialogus, and going out toward the modulator via iio_buffer_push() calls that transfer data into Linux kernel buffers on the Pluto’s ARM. … Continue reading "IIO Timeline Management in Dialogus — Transmit"
