Naslov: RS41 Tracker
Autor: diego - 14.05.2018. u 12:26:59 sati

Hello All,
It's a long time I don't post anything on this forum.
In these months here in Italy I have studied  several aspects of RS41 decoding, from GFSK to data telemetries.

So I started to develop and engineering tools on that topics.


The result is a Freeware software called RS41 Tracker.

If someone want to test it  the RS41 Tracker is available at the following link:

Suggestions are of course welcome.

Software description

RS41 Tracker is a software running on Windows that it’s able to decode telemetries generated by Vaisala RS41 radiosondes.

Used in conjunction with a FM radio receiver it allows operators to display radiosonde positions on a map and to control other meaningful parameters like temperature, wind speed/direction and burst killer related information.

All in real time.

 

Main features are:

* Directly decoding of GFSK signal received by the FM radio receiver (the use of a Software Defined Radio is recommended).

* Capability to connect and command SDRSharp software by mean of Net Remote Control plugin.

* Advanced frequencies scan and decode: RS41 Tracker is able to look for RS41 radiosonde signal in a given list of frequencies, starting the radiosonde decoding when a valid signal is detected.

* Real time showing radiosonde position on google map (internet connection is required)

* Map auto centered on radiosonde position

* Map type selectable by user (road, satellite, hybrid, terrain).

* Burst killer detailed information and launch time estimation.

* Radiosonde RAW data save

* Post processing of RS41 RAW data file

Wish list!?
well, not much, location shortcut for google-maps in browser
and path in KML file

Hi all,

lots of things left to do, but a new version of RS41 Tracker (v1.2) is available at the following address:

http://escursioni.altervista.org/Radiosonde/ (http://escursioni.altervista.org/Radiosonde/)

ChangeLog

005 - Tracking information added. RS41T is now able to provides elevation, bearing, range and Slant range of the received sonde.

004 - Home location is now shown on map using a new marker symbol (settings -> Maps to provide Home coordinates).

003 - New working session automatically starts when a new sonde is received (This allow to handle several RS41s on the same working session without restart software) 

PROBLEMS SOLVED:
002 - The decoding function doesn't work as expected When Radio control is activated but SDRSharp plugin is not running. Solution:Radio Control Engine reengineered.


Thanks

Diego
