automatic locking at c-channels not working #32
Comments
I've noticed this as well, sometimes it locks just fine but most of the time it requires me manually selecting the channel in the window a couple times for it to recognize there is something there. |
Yup. The 8400bps demodulator needs improving both with locking and with adjacent channel rejection. I didn't write the 8400bps demodulator so will need to look at how it works. I'll also need a suitable test recording to work with (one with 2 active adjacent channels). Then I'll need a bit of free time. I've got this planned but just don't have the time for the rest of the month. In the meantime if someone attaches an baseband/audio file of 2 adjacent 8400bps signals (the baseband or sound of from something like SDR# covering the 2 channels that I can play on a loop) which is a problematic signal that would be one less thing I have to do. |

Thanks for that. Ekks they are some weak crowded signals and very sort lived. Interesting, playing them back I don't get as much trouble with adjacent channels compared to when I did a real life test. Very odd. Just out of interest, for signals that lock have no sound and vanish after a few seconds... When someone makes a C-channel call it will ring like a typical telephone. The ringing sound is encoded differently than normal speech and libaeroambe doesn't support the ringing sound. So these silent signals are people calling someone but no one picks up on the other end. I'll see what I can do with your recording. As I said I don't have much time this month so any improvements wont be seen till January at the earliest. Figures crossed it's not too difficult. |
Hi all, I been given two recordings and that is what I've been working on for the last few days. These are the only recordings I've tested the demodulator on. One is the very week one from jlxsolutions above and the other one is a very strong one someone emailed me directly which I have also found invaluable to work with. The more the better really, anyway I got two and hopefully that has been enough to get a realistic sample of signals. I have pushed the new changes... The changes are... Oh and I just remember another one was optimizing the sample time better, it was somewhat off before. It addresses a lot more than just the automatic locking. It won't get permanently stuck in that silly state that it used to but it is a little slow and takes a few seconds to get unstuck and try again. The reason it's a little slow is it has to wait for the DCD LED to go off and that uses the sub data which is very slow on the 8400bps channels as most of it is used for audio. Anyway I'm sure it'll be fine. I don't think it affects anything else but the 8400 channels but it's possible I made a mistake. I haven't tested it on anything else but 8400 channels so that should really be done. If the people who can compile from source can test it out over the next few days and let me know if they find any problems that would be good. If I get the thumbs up or if I hear back from no one I'll package it up and make it the new release this weekend. Cheers, |
Okay I have published the new release so hopefully that should that should do the trick. I didn't hear back from anyone. I tried it out for a day and seems okay. I had actually written that demodulator, I hadn't realized that Jeroen was using the same one. Anyway, I will wait to hear feedback. |
When new c-channels are activ, jaero often does not lock at them, i have to do it manually.
Once it locked at them, with manual help, it mostly does not loose the lock, even if a other channel overlaps it a bit. jeara shows EbNo of 12 db.
