Programming with GNU Radio HackRF is an open-source hardware platform developed by Great Scott Gadgets and serves as a versatile front end for software-defined radio (SDR). With HackRF One and its successor, HackRF Pro, users can develop their own SDR applications, build powerful receivers and transmitters, and tackle demanding RF measurement tasks. This book provides a practical introduction to the world of SDR. Step by step, the author shows how powerful SDR projects can be implemented with HackRF – from the fundamentals of RF technology to advanced applications using GNU Radio. In addition to working with SDR Sharp (SDR#), RadioConda, and GNU Radio, the book also covers the fundamentals of modern digital signal processing. Numerous experiments and easy-to-follow practical examples guide readers through topics such as AM, FM, and SSB reception, digital filters, shortwave radio, amateur radio, signal generators, and custom RF projects up to 6 GHz. Whether you are a maker, radio amateur, electronics enthusiast, or SDR beginner, this book provides solid knowledge, practical applications, and the motivation to creatively explore the possibilities of modern SDR technology.

Through more than 20 structured projects, you’ll design and build digital systems using real-world components such as logic gates, multiplexers, decoders, flip-flops, counters, and shift registers. The projects range from basic LED logic circuits to digital locks, display systems, traffic light controllers, and timing-based designs. Selected projects introduce the use of tools such as CircuitVerse for circuit simulation, while several designs make use of 74HC-series logic devices, commonly used in digital hardware prototyping. Inside, you’ll find: Clear coverage of number systems and binary arithmetic Logic gate fundamentals and universal gate implementations Step-by-step projects using flip-flops, counters, and registers Real-world design with 74HC-series logic chips Techniques for designing combinational and sequential systems This book takes a design-first, application-driven approach to digital electronics—built around working circuits, tested logic, and hands-on experimentation.

Die Kurzwellentechnik übt einen ganz besonderen Reiz aus. Man kann mit geringstem Aufwand große Entfernungen überbrücken. Durch Reflexion an leitenden Schichten der Ionosphäre und am Boden werden Kurzwellensignale auch an Orten jenseits des Horizonts hörbar. So lässt sich jeder Ort auf der Erde erreichen. Zwar strebt die Technik nach immer höheren Frequenzen, und Radio hört man meist auf UKW, über DAB+, über Satellit oder das Internet. Aber alle diese moderneren Übertragungswege benötigen eine umfangreiche Infrastruktur und sind extrem verletzlich. Im Falle eines globalen Stromausfalls geht nichts mehr außer auf der Kurzwelle. Deshalb wird im Amateurfunk nicht nur ein Hobby gepflegt, sondern auch ein Notfunksystem aufrechterhalten. Das Elektor SDR-Shield ist ein vielseitiger Kurzwellenempfänger bis 30 MHz. Zusammen mit einem Arduino-Board und der passenden Software lassen sich nicht nur Rundfunkstationen empfangen, sondern auch Morsesignale, SSB-Stationen und digitale Signale. Der Erfolgsautor und begeisterter Amateurfunker Burkhard Kainka beschreibt im vorliegenden Buch die moderne Praxis des Software Defined Radios mithilfe des Elektor SDR-Shields. Dabei vermittelt er nicht nur den theoretischen Background, sondern erklärt auch zahlreiche Software-Werkzeuge aus dem Open-Source-Bereich, die heute die Kurzwellentechnik zu einem absolut spannenden und hochmodernen Hobby machen.

Comme la demande pour la pose de panneaux solaires a fortement augmenté, surtout pour les installations plus vastes que les centrales de balcon, les carnets de commandes des entreprises dans le domaine du solaire sont pleins. Si vous demandez aujourd’hui un devis, vous risquez d’attendre un moment, si votre demande n’est pas tout simplement renvoyée à une date indéterminée. Une autre conséquence de cette explosion du solaire est que certaines entreprises pratiquent des prix très élevés pour réaliser des installations. Il y a pourtant une solution évidente et radicale contre les prix excessifs : Do it yourself comme le disent les Anglais. Le prix du matériel est actuellement abordable, c’est la période idéale pour ceux qui font le travail eux-mêmes. Ils ne pourraient pas réaliser davantage d’économies. À cela s’ajoutent la satisfaction de faire quelque chose d’utile, tant sur le plan économique qu’écologique, et le plaisir de construire soi-même. Dans ce numéro spécial, vous trouverez une large sélection de montages d’Elektor, du régulateur pour panneaux solaires à celui pour chauffe-eau solaire, en passant par le système d’orientation pour panneaux solaires. Ce numéro contient également des informations pratiques sur l’installation des panneaux solaires ainsi que la technologie qu’ils renferment.

Schrittweise Einführung in das praktische Schaltungsdesign Der Einstieg in die Elektronik ist nicht so schwierig, wie man vielleicht denkt. Mit diesem Buch werden die wichtigsten Konzepte der Elektrotechnik und Elektronik auf spielerische Weise erkundet, indem verschiedene Experimente durchgeführt und Schaltungen simuliert werden. Es vermittelt Elektronik praxisnah, ohne in komplexen Fachjargon oder lange Berechnungen einzutauchen. Dadurch werden schon bald eigene Projekte ermöglicht. Es sind keine Vorkenntnisse in Elektronik erforderlich; lediglich einige grundlegende Algebra-Kenntnisse werden in wenigen einfachen Berechnungen verwendet. Viele getestete und funktionierende Projekte und Simulationen werden vorgestellt, um mit dem Aufbau elektronischer Schaltungen vertraut zu werden. Für problemloses Experimentieren – ohne die Gefahr, etwas zu beschädigen – werden zudem frühzeitig auch softwarebasierte Schaltungssimulationen vorgestellt. Lernziele: Konzepte von Spannung, Strom und Leistung Wechselstrom (AC) und Gleichstrom (DC) Grundlegende Lampenschaltungen mit Schaltern Passive Bauteile: Widerstände, Kondensatoren und Induktivitäten RC- und RCL-Schaltungen und Elektromagnetismus Lautsprecher, Relais, Summer und Transformatoren Aktive Bauteile: Dioden und LEDs, Bipolartransistoren und MOSFETs Transistorbasierte Schaltungen Optokoppler-Schaltungen Astabile und monostabile Multivibratoren Verwendung des 555-Timer-ICs Operationsverstärkertechnik Digitale Logik Beispiele: Verstärker, Oszillatoren, Filter und Sensoren Test- und Messwerkzeuge Mikrocontroller: Arduino Uno, ESP32, Raspberry Pi Pico und Raspberry Pi Datenblätter lesen und Auswahl von Komponenten EMV & EMI sowie Normen & Vorschriften
