A Software Defined Radio for Everyone

LimeSDR is a low cost, open source, apps-enabled (more on that later)
software defined radio (SDR) platform that can be used to support just
about any type of wireless communication standard. LimeSDR can send
and receive UMTS, LTE, GSM, LoRa, Bluetooth, Zigbee, RFID, and Digital
Broadcasting, to name but a few.

While most SDRs have remained in the domain of RF and protocol
experts, LimeSDR is usable by anyone familiar with the idea of an app
store - it’s the first SDR to integrate with Snappy Ubuntu Core. This
means you can easily download new LimeSDR apps from developers around
the world. If you’re a developer yourself, you can share and/or sell
your LimeSDR apps through Snappy Ubuntu Core as well.

The LimeSDR platform gives students, inventors, and developers an
intelligent and flexible device for manipulating wireless signals, so
they can learn, experiment, and develop with freedom from limited
functionality and expensive proprietary devices.
