It seems ridiculous to me, as a lifelong hobby algorithm researcher, to require an expensive radio with an fpga, to implement a sample algorithm, when computers have massive gpus nowadays and common math libraries to use them. I'm sad the researchers implemented their algorithm on an fpga, making it harder for people to use
the reason FPGA's are so common, particularly in TX scenarios is that time constraints for low level protocols are extremely tight. there is a non-trivial amount of latency for a round- trip to the bus, and then operating system is non-real-time. if you are receiving only, then this becomes less important so for your use case, maybe just downcoverters and RTL-SDR? keep going! you'll only make it better :) best regards, -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iNUEAREKAH0WIQRBwSuMMH1+IZiqV4FlqEfnwrk4DAUCYKldul8UgAAAAAAuAChp c3N1ZXItZnByQG5vdGF0aW9ucy5vcGVucGdwLmZpZnRoaG9yc2VtYW4ubmV0NDFD MTJCOEMzMDdEN0UyMTk4QUE1NzgxNjVBODQ3RTdDMkI5MzgwQwAKCRBlqEfnwrk4 DLZWAP4ypTTMnA+cZnQAA7lr/yvMWnmy1KhMzeKp5oBN/L8+xAEAtVRMMXFeTe4Y qRpXg8nzvVWoCPA11W0nHQecC8V5vnQ= =lEdl -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
