This is an invitation for proposals for presentations for the second Open Radio Miniconf at linux.conf.au in Auckland, NZ from Kim Hawtin, the miniconf's organiser. Proposals must be received by 14 December 2014.
Hi, this is Kim VK5FJ.
In early January, I’ll be kicking off the second one day Open Radio Miniconf, in Auckland, NZ.
The Open Radio miniconf is about:
- exploring the open source hardware of software defined radio (SDR),
- understanding the open source software used in software defined radio, and
- exploring the open source protocols used over the air.
We’ll start off with a build-a-thon and a little theory.
We’re using an established SDR design, reworked by Mark VK5QI and Codec2 author David VK5DGR.
We will cover the how and why of SDR, and look at encoding and decoding some old and new modes.
Later in the day we will have a session for short talks on these topics, each around 10-15 minutes.
So if you are interested in presenting, please send an email to vk5fj@wia.org.au. Please submit your proposal to present at this miniconf by 14 December 2014.
More information on registering for Linux Conf in Auckland can be found at lca2015.linux.org.au.
