0x00 概览
LimeSDR部分特性: USB 3.0 ; 4 x Tx 发射天线接口 6 x Rx 接收天线接口;
可用于Wi-Fi, GSM, UMTS, LTE, LoRa, Bluetooth, Zigbee, RFID等开发测试环境中。
RTL电视棒、HackRF、BladeRF、USRP、LimeSDR参数对比表:
HackRF One的价格,性能参数却能跟BladeRF甚至USRP媲美!
LimeSDR核心组件:
先上几张特写:
主板长10cm,算上USB接口11.5cm:
主板宽5.7cm:
相对于HackRF、BladeRF、USRP这三款主流SDR硬件(USRP mini除外),体积已经很小巧了。LimeSDR其体积实测只有一个iPhone5s的体积大小!
当插上USB供电后,除了上图显示的两颗绿色LED灯,还有一颗一闪一闪的红色LED灯也在工作。
接下来将分一键快速安装和源码编译安装来使用LimeSDR硬件,推荐使用源码编译安装。
0x01 Mac OSX
1.1 搭建开发环境
Mac OSX当中强烈推荐通过Mac Port 搭建SDR环境,配合源码编译达到最佳效果。
1.通过AppStore安装Xcode https://itunes.apple.com/cn/app/xcode/id497799835?mt=12
2.下载安装 XQuartz/X11 http://xquartz.macosforge.org/landing
3.下载安装 MacPorts https://trac.macports.org/wiki/InstallingMacPorts
sudo port search sdr
sudo port install rtl-sdr hackrf bladeRF uhd gnuradio gqrx gr-osmosdr gr-fosphor
完成之后便可从GayHub上clone源码并进行编译安装。
1.2 源码编译LimeSuite
git clone https://github.com/myriadrf/LimeSuite.git
cd LimeSuite
mkdir builddir && cd builddir
cmake ../
make -j4
sudo make install
1.3 源码编译UHD驱动&&增加UHD对LimeSDR的支持
jocover基于UHD给LimeSDR开发了LimeSDR的驱动支持OpenUSRP,把LimeSDR来模拟成USRP B210来使用。
git clone https://github.com/EttusResearch/uhd.git
cd uhd/host/lib/usrp
git clone https://github.com/jocover/OpenUSRP.git
echo "INCLUDE_SUBDIRECTORY(OpenUSRP)">>CMakeLists.txt
mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make -j4
sudo make install
1.4 添加环境变量
echo 'export UHD_MODULE_PATH=/usr/lib/uhd/modules' >> ~/.bashrc
如果用的是iTerm2+zsh则执行:
echo 'export UHD_MODULE_PATH=/usr/lib/uhd/modules' >> ~/.zshrc
1.5 检测LimeSDR模拟USRP是否成功:
LimeSDR模拟成USRP B210之后最终的效果跟USRP是一样的:
uhd_find_devices
uhd_usrp_probe
Mac OS; Clang version 8.1. (clang-802.0.); Boost_105900; UHD_003.010.001.-MacPorts-Release Using OpenUSRP
