|Name=Foundations Friday: Software Defined Radio workshop
|Picture=UpduinoV2.jpg
|Omschrijving=A workshop to give people the basic knowledge needed to start building radio receivers using SDR hardware
|DateStart= {{#time: 2019-06-28 20:00 }}
|DateEnd= {{#time: 2019-06-28 23:00 }}
|InfoLocation=Overgoo 1, Leidschendam

== Software Defined Radio workshop: receiving a wireless microphone ==

== 1. Goal of the workshop: ==

At the end of the workshop (ca two hours), participants will be able to
* Receive a simple wireless microphone signal from the presenter
* Using their own laptop
* Using their own RTL-SDR dongle or other software-defined radio receiver
* Understand a few basic concept of radio signals, signal processing, and software-based radio signalprocessing in particular.

== 2. Prerequisites: ==

Please bring your own radio-receiver:
* A RTL-SDR hardware (very cheap, $20-$40 or less)
* A funcube dongle
* Other SDR hardware (USRP or other GNURadio supported SDR)
* A laptop with GnuRadio and Gnuradio-companion installed (version 3.7.5 ... 3.7.11 is ok)
There might be a few available @ revspace coin-op machine by the time the workshop starts.
* Optional: a gqrx installation or other software-defined radio/waterfall receiver with WBFM support

== 3. Quick introduction ==
Quick introduction into GNURadio companion 3.7.x user interface and concepts and keyboard shortcuts
(have it preinstalled and git client to download the samplecode)

== 4. Theory of signal processing ==
This takes about half an hour, it is an interactive session so
that we can adapt the speed a bit depending on prior knowledge
of the participants. Questions in between are very welcome,
we will be with a small group.

== 5. Radio receivers and/or detectors ==
* Build a simple mono FM receiver using standard gnuradio blocks
* Decomposing the function of the gnuradio blocks

The transmitter in question will be an ordinary wireless presentation microphone for stage-usage, that
the presenter will bring and setup to transmit at a fixed frequency.

It will generate a mono, wideband FM signal in the 473-494 MHz band.
The transmitter will also feature a tone-code of 35 kHz that will be inaudible to the public and normal
receivers. The tone is used to detect nearby presence of the transmitter, and estimate the
signal level.

The goal is to
- find the exact frequency the presenter is using
- demodulate the FM signal using basic gnuradio blocks
- play back the audio from a local speaker or headphone

The latter might also introduce one into the problem of samplerate-conversions and free-running clocks
between the radio-receiver, audio device sample clock, and a PC's local software clock

== 6. Practice of signal processing ==

The examples will be provided via git and just need to be started,
so the focus is understanding the signal flow, making modifications
predict what will happen, and then test the result in practice.
This takes about another half hour

=== 6.1 Real signals ===
Real sinewaves
* In the timedomain
* Displayed using time sink / oscillioscope
* Displayed uisng frequency sink / FFT / spectrogram
Multiplying real-sinewaves, in the time domain
* Displayed using time sink / oscillioscope
* Displayed uisng frequency sink / FFT / spectrogram
* Usage of the word 'mixing' in radioterms (multiplication or usage of other non-linearities)

=== 6.2 Complex signals ===
Quadrature or complex (IQ) sinewave signal sources
* Displaying IQ signals in timedomain ('constellation' diagram)
* Displaying IQ signals in frequency domain (using FFT or frequency sinks)
Multiplying quadrature (IQ) sinewaves and spectrogram
* Effect of quadrature multiplication (phases of are added)
* Usage of complex multiplication in signal processing

=== 6.3 Filtering complex signals ===
Filtering IQ signals using FIR filters with complex coefficient/taps.
* FIR or Finite Impulse Response filters.
* IIR filters will be skipped.
* Hilbert transform filters might be skipped too (generating complex analytical signals from real ones).

=== 6.4 Calculating FIR filter coefficients or parameters ===
Filtering coefficients/taps, impulse response of filter
* Calculating FIR filter coefficients/taps using gr-filter
Performance limitations, tradeoffs between
* Computational complexity of filter (number of multiply/add operations per processed sample)
* Steepness of cut-off frequency
* Flatness of passband of filter (integrity of signal that still should pass through the filter)
* Depth and ripple of stopband of filter (flatness of suppression of unwanted signal)
* (Using inverse FFT/inverse DFT and windowing functions to determine filter coefficients/taps will be skipped)

ESP8266

2016-07-03T15:36:37Z

Gábor Nyers: /* Arduino */

[[File:esp12e.jpg|200px|right|ESP12E]]
== Inleiding ==
De ESP8266 is een kleine, krachtige 32bits microcontroller. Het heeft een paar zeer uitnodigende features zoals een hoge kloksnelheid, WiFi, een flinke sloot geheugen, PWM op elke pin én een hele lage prijs!

Tegenwoordig is het heel eenvoudig om deze chip van software te voorzien via de Arduino programmeeromgeving.

== Hardware ==

=== ESP12E ===
[[File:esp12e.jpg|150px|right|ESP12E]]
De 12E is de meest standaard ESP module die er te krijgen is. Voor ongeveer 2 euro uit China te krijgen met een flink flashgeheugen, bijna alle pins naar buiten gebracht, dus genoeg aansluitmogelijkheden en een lekker compact model.

Nadeel is de relatief kleine pitch tussen de pads, je zult vaak naar een adapterboardje moeten grijpen of een eigen printje layouten. Adapterboardjes zijn al vanaf 20 cent te krijgen.
 
=== ESP12F ===
[[File:esp12f.jpg|150px|right|ESP12F]]De 12F is een doorontwikkeling van de 12E. De grote verbetering zit in het WiFi bereik, de antenne is namelijk iets aangepast. Mensen rapporteren significant beter signaal. De modules zijn op het moment van schrijven wel duurder dan de 12E.
 
=== NodeMCU v3 ===
[[File:nodemcuv3.jpg|150px|right|NodeMCU v3]]Een ESP12E op een adapterboardje met een aantal luxe features. 3.3volt regulator, USB-Serial dmv een CH340G, alle knopjes voor flashen zitten er al op. Is voor ongeveer 3,50 te krijgen vanuit China. Heeft als nadeel dat het bordje niet echt compact is en dat je mogelijk GPIO's niet/lastig kunt gebruiken omdat daar al knopjes/weerstanden aan hangen.
 

== Aansluiten ==

Er zijn een paar belangrijke zaken om in acht te nemen bij het ontwerp van hardware met de ESP boards (met name de 'losse' ESP boards, de NodeMCU heeft al een hoop aan boord.

* 3.3volt, voor enkel de ESP minimaal 500mA begroten. Stabiliteit van de voeding beïnvloed de stabiliteit van de ESP
* Condensatoren. Op VCC/GND moet minimaal een 10uF en een 100nF geplaatst worden, zo dicht mogelijk op de VCC
* Pullups en Pulldowns. Bij Boot kijkt de ESP naar de volgende pinnen:
** GPIO 0 laag = boot from UART (Programmeren), hoog = boot from SPI flash (plaats 10k pullup naar 3.3v en switch naar gnd
** GPIO 2 moet hoog zijn, dus pullup naar 3.3v
** GPIO 15 laag = boot from UART/SPI, hoog = boot from SDIO (plaats 10k pulldown naar GND)
** CH_PD laag = ESP uit, hoog = ESP aan. Pullup 10k naar 3.3v
** RST laag = ESP reset, hoog = ESP aan. Pullup 10k naar 3.3v (plus resetknop naar GND)

Als je wilt programmeren moet je GPIO0 laag maken, en de ESP van stroom voorzien of resetten. Zodra de bootloader actief is kun je GPIO loslaten.

== Software ==

=== Arduino ===
[https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino De Arduino boardmanager] op Github is een goed startpunt voor software. Je volgt de handleiding hoe je de boards installeert en je kunt aan de slag.

Veel libraries van bv Adafruit zijn al aangepast op de ESP8266.

* De 15segmentsdisplay-klok

== Inhoud ==

We gaan aan de slag met de ESP8266 (zie ook [[ESP8266]]). Ik ga je helpen om van reguliere Arduino's over te gaan op de ESP8266:

* Basisintroductie ESP8266
* Getting started: Hello World / Blinky
* Connecting to the WiFi
* Internet Of Shit waarschuwingen
* Having fun with MQTT and sensors
* Valkuilen in hardware en software
* etc

Format gaat zijn dat ik een niet al te lang praatje houd, of meerdere en dat we tussendoor veel hands-on bezig zijn.

== Praktische informatie ==

Inloop vanaf 13.37.

* Neem een laptop mee met daarop Arduino 1.6.9 (arduino.cc) en de CH340g driver voor de USB-Serial. Waarschuwing over Arduino 1.6.9: ik moest op mijn Mac alle 'achtergrondzooi' van Arduino handmatig wegslopen voor ik 1.6.9 installeerde om de boel werkend te hebben.
* Zorg voor een NodeMCU of Wemos D1 Mini of iets vergelijkbaars (ik heb een royale voorraad van deze bordjes in de snoepautomaat gedaan, maar ik heb geen USB-touwtjes over...)
* Neem eventueel sensoren mee of ledjes of ander leuk spul om mee te rommelen (breadboardjes en onderdelen zijn ook op de space)

==Inschrijvingen==
Meld je aan via IRC, deze Wiki of via workshop at sebasti.us :)

Mochten er meer dan 12 deelnemers zijn moet ik de kantine reserveren :), dan hebben we een max van 16 ivm zitplekken (en dat is best knus al).

* Neem eventueel sensoren mee of ledjes of ander leuk spul om mee te rommelen (breadboardjes en onderdelen zijn ook op de space)

==Inschrijvingen==
Meld je aan via IRC, deze Wiki of via workshop at sebasti.us :)

Snijplotter

2013-03-15T13:59:50Z

Gábor Nyers:

[[Image:Snijplotter.jpg|300px|thumb|Lijn de folie uit met de 0cm-markering rechts.]]

Revspace heeft sinds Februari 2013 beschikking over een snijplotter die gebruik kan worden voor o.a. vinyl-snijden. Het betreft een (chinese) [http://www.creation-cn.com Creation Technologies] [http://www.creation-cn.com/cn/product/product_more.php?id=34 PCut CT630] ([http://www.creation-cn.com/en/product/product_more.php?id=34 of in Engels]). Het apparaat spreekt HP-GL via een usb-seriele verbinding op 19200 baud.

Aansturing gaat het beste vanuit Inkscape met de InkCut addon. Verander de objecten in paden met 'object to path', en kies dan de InkCut addon in het extensions menu. Vergeet niet je object eerst te spiegelen.

== Gebruikskosten ==
Te betalen via revbank:
* Vinyl: standaard 10 cent per centimeter (lengte @ 61cm)
** Mat Zwart
** Mat Groen
** ...
* Transferfolie (incl in vinylprijs, anders 5ct/cm)

Alleen hele breedtes (61 cm). Gebruik je de helft van de breedte niet, dan moet je die wel betalen.

Supplies:
* Blade holder (origineel) type PCUT, Diameter 11.5mm, Lengte (clamp to down 28mm, totaal 51.5mm) (30 graden)
** Mesjes: 1.5mm doorsnede (type pcut) (30 graden)
* Blade holder (huidig) type ROLAND (45graden)
** Mesjes: 2mm, lengte 23mm, offset 0.25mm, type Roland (45 graden)
* Kosten blade-holder: ~10 USD op ebay, keyword: 'cutter blade'
* Kosten mesjes: < 2 USD / stuk op ebay
* Vinyl
** [http://www.mijnwebwinkel.nl/winkel/adhesivevinyl/ Poeldijk,NL] (Beperkt aanbod, kleine voorraad)
** [http://www.signseen.nl/ SignSeen] (Venendaal, redelijk aanbod)
** [http://www.nautasign.nl/ NautaSign] (Ede, ruim aanbod)

= Inkscape =
[[Image:VinylSnijder-PortSettings.png|150px|thumb|Device properties in InkCut.]]
Direct plotten vanuit Inkscape is mogelijk met de Inkscape extensions InkCut.

[http://inkcut.sourceforge.net/ InkCut extensie]

== Randvoorwaardelijkheden ==

=== Debian ===
naast de lib pygtk and gtk, pyserial, librsvg2-common is ook python-cupshelper nodig

=== openSUSE ===
zypper in python-pyserial librsvg-2-2 python-gtk

=== InkCut ===
[http://inkcut.sourceforge.net/ InkCut extensie]

[https://sourceforge.net/projects/inkcut/files/InkCut-1.0.tar.gz/download Download] en pak het archief uit:
tar -xzvf Downloads/InkCut-1.0.tar.gz -C .config/inkscape/extensions/

== Gebruik ==

Let op: wanneer je de extentie installeert en in inkscape wilt testen: maak eerst object aan en maak er een path van (anders krijg je de melding 'There were no paths were selected.')

Instellingen voor de CT630:
* Press: 110 (voor mesje/vinyl) (150 voor pen/papier)
* Test: 001
* Repeat: 001
* Cut speed: 060
* X-Scale: 25795
* Y-Scale: 25858
* Baudrate: 19200

Volgende is getest en functionerend bevonden met Fedora 18

* Kies als interface '''Serial'''
* Selecteer de poort (waarschijnlijk voor voor jou /dev/ttyUSB0)
* Port: 19200N81
* RTS/CTS on
* Klik op Test Connection & Save

Indien de plotter na gebruik niet meer werkt (je hebt Inkscape opnieuw opgestart) moet je de poort instellingen opnieuw goed instellen, kies dan bijvoorbeeld eerst /dev/ttyS0, druk op save en herstel dan weer de instellingen zoals je deze wil hebben. Dit lijkt een bug te zijn in Inkcut.

Alternatieve manier (wanneer bovenstaande niet wil)

* In InkCut, ga naar Options tabje
* verander Output van '''Sent to cutter/plotter''' naar '''Write to file'''
* Klik '''Plot Paths'''
* In de '''InkCut Send Plot Data'''-dialoog klik '''Send''' (dialoogje zal sluiten0
* Klik '''Cancel''' om InkCut dialoog te sluiten, zal afsluiten met foutmelding: negeer
* in terminal: stty -F /dev/ttyUSB0 19200
* cat inkcut.hpgl > /dev/ttyUSB0

Microscoop

2013-03-06T12:52:32Z

Gábor Nyers:

De space krijgt een binoculaire microscoop! Deze kan gebruikt worden voor fijn elektronicawerk en ander gepriegel.

Het wordt er ongeveer zo eentje, maar dan trinoculair (dus met camera-aansluiting):

Microscoop

2013-02-26T21:55:04Z

Gábor Nyers:

Ik (smeding) loop al een tijdje met het idee te spelen om een microscoop voor de space te regelen. Idee is dat dit het veel makkelijker maakt om bijvoorbeeld klein elektronicagepruts te doen. Daarom deze pagina, om eens te registreren hoeveel interesse er is.

Wat ikzelf in een microscoop zoek is:
* bin- of trinoculair
* vergroting ergens tussen de 10 en de 40
* liefst op een arm gemonteerd
* genoeg ruimte eronder om ook te kunnen werken met bijvoorbeeld een soldeerbout.

Opties variëren van redelijk goedkoop maar bare-bones (zoals [http://link.marktplaats.nl/628211804 deze]) tot duur maar goed en flexibel inzetbaar (zoals [http://link.marktplaats.nl/645560827 deze]). Meer geld is dus van harte welkom!

* bin- of trinoculair
* vergroting ergens tussen de 10 en de 40
* liefst op een arm gemonteerd
* genoeg ruimte eronder om ook te kunnen werken met bijvoorbeeld een soldeerbout.

Opties variëren van redelijk goedkoop maar bare-bones (zoals [http://link.marktplaats.nl/628211804 deze]) tot duur maar goed en flexibel inzetbaar (zoals [http://link.marktplaats.nl/645560827 deze]). Meer geld is dus van harte welkom!
