leansdr consists of:

  • A simple data-flow framework for signal processing
  • A C++ library of software-defined radio functions
  • Applications built on top of the above.

Currently the main application is leandvb.

leandvb

leandvb is a DVB-S demodulator designed for speed rather than sensitivity.

See http://www.pabr.org/radio/leandvb for details and use cases.

Quick start guide

git clone http://github.com/pabr/leansdr.git

./leandvb  -f 2400e3  --sr 2000e3  --cr 1/2   < capture.iq  > capture.ts
mplayer capture.ts

./leandvb  --gui  -v  -d  -f 2400e3  --sr 2000e3  --cr 1/2  < capture.iq  > capture.ts

Live receiver with auto-detection of symbol rate and code rate:
