Mit RPi-basierten Tools und Messgeräten Amateurfunkstationen bauen und programmieren Obwohl viele Funkamateure immer noch mit klassischer HF- und Mobilfunkausrüstung arbeiten, ist der Einsatz von Computern und digitalen Techniken inzwischen sehr beliebt. Heutzutage kann jeder für ca. 40 € einen Raspberry Pi-Computer kaufen und fast jede Amateurfunk-Software auf dem 'RPi' ausführen. Die RTL-SDR-Geräte sind bei Funkamateuren sehr beliebt, weil sie sehr preiswert sind und viele Funktionen bieten. Ein Basissystem kann aus einem USB-basierten RTL-SDR-Dongle mit einer geeigneten Antenne, einem RPi-Computer, einem USB-basierten externen Audio-Eingangs-/ Ausgangsadapter und einer auf dem RPi installierten Software bestehen. Mit einer solch einfachen Einrichtung ist es möglich, Signale von etwa 24 MHz bis über 1,7 GHz zu empfangen. Dieses Buch richtet sich an Funkamateure, die lernen wollen, wie man mit dem Raspberry Pi elektronische Projekte baut. Das Buch eignet sich für die gesamte Bandbreite von Anfängern bis hin zu alten Hasen im Amateurfunk. Die schrittweise Installation des Betriebssystems wird mit vielen Details zu den gängigsten Linux-Befehlen beschrieben. Einige Kenntnisse der Programmiersprache Python sind erforderlich, um die im Buch beschriebenen Projekte zu verstehen und zu bearbeiten. Zu den im Buch entwickelten Beispielprojekten gehören eine Stationsuhr, ein Signalgenerator, der Entwurf eines Transistorverstärkers, der Entwurf eines aktiven Filters, ein Morsezeichen-Übungsgerät, ein Frequenzzähler, ein HF-Meter und vieles mehr. Für jedes Projekt werden das Blockdiagramm, der Schaltplan und der vollständige Python-Quellcode angegeben, einschließlich der vollständigen Beschreibung der Projekte. Neben der umfassenden Behandlung von RTL-SDR für Amateurfunk fasst das Buch auch die Installations- und Gebrauchsanweisungen der folgenden Amateurfunkprogramme zusammen, die Sie auf ihrem Raspberry Pi ausführen können: TWCLOCK, Klog, Gpredict, FLDIGI, DIRE WOLF, xcwcp, QSSTV, LinPsk, Ham Clock, CHIRP, xastir und CQRLOG.

This book discusses the basic components of any alarm system. All alarm systems have two basic functions. First, they monitor their environment looking for a change such as a door or window opening or someone moving about in the room. Second, they alert the legal owner or user to this change. The system described in this book uses a scanning type software to detect intruders. It behaves like a guard dog, pacing up and down the fence line on the lookout for either an intruder or a familiar person. If you have an alarm key, you can disarm the system and enter. With the scanning method, the software is easy to write and explain. It can scan eight alarm zones plus two special fire zones in about one second. You don’t have to be an electrical engineer to install an alarm system, just a decent carpenter, painter, and plasterer! Because this alarm system runs on 12 volts, you don’t have to be a licensed electrician either to install it. The alarm system presented here uses Python software on the Raspberry Pi combined with some elementary electronic circuits. The code described in the book, as well as CAD files and a bill of materials for the alarm panel, are available for free downloading. The book provides the reader with examples of typical configurations coming straight from the author‘s experience. After reviewing the hardware components typically used in common alarm systems, the author shows how to plan one yourself. To implement a modular alarm, no matter if it is for a single house or for a business or restaurant, the book shows how to skillfully combine a Raspberry Pi with small auxiliary electronic circuits. These are not installation instructions but food for thought that will enable readers to find a solution to their needs.

Design IoT Projects with Raspberry Pi, Arduino and ESP32 The Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming a major application area for embedded systems. As a result, more and more people are becoming interested in learning about embedded design and programming. Technical colleges and universities are moving away from legacy 8 and 16-bit microcontrollers and are introducing 32-bit embedded microcontrollers to their curriculums. Many IoT applications demand precision, high processing power, and low power consumption. Produced by IBM, Node-RED is an open-source visual editor for wiring the Internet of Things. Node-RED comes with a large number of nodes to handle a multitude of tasks. The required nodes are selected and joined together to perform a particular task. Node-RED is based on flow type programming where nodes are configured and joined together to form an application program. There are nodes for performing complex tasks, including web access, Twitter, E-mail, HTTP, Bluetooth, MQTT, controlling GPIO ports, etc. One particularly nice aspect of Node-RED is that the programmer does not need to learn how to write complex programs. For example, an email can be sent by simply joining nodes together and writing only a few lines of code. The aim of this book is to teach how Node-RED can be used in projects. The main hardware platform used with most of the projects in this book is Raspberry Pi 4. Chapters are included to show how Node-RED can be also be used with Arduino Uno, ESP32 DevKitC, and the ESP8266 NodeMCU microcontroller development boards.

This book is all about building your own DIY home control system. It presents two innovative ways to assemble such a system: By recycling old PC hardware – possibly extending the life of an old PC, or by using Raspberry Pi. In both cases, the main system outlined in this book will consist of a computer platform, a wireless mains outlet, a controller and a USB webcam – All linked together by Linux. By using the Raspberry Pi in conjunction with Arduino (used as an advanced I/O system board), it is possible to construct a small, compact, embedded control system offering enhanced capacity for USB integration, webcams, thermal monitoring and communication with the outside world. The experience required to undertake the projects within this book are minimal exposure to PC hardware and software, the ability to surf the internet, burn a CD-ROM and assemble a small PCB.

Build Your Own Vintage Radio Broadcaster The Elektor AM Transmitter Kit allows streaming audio to vintage AM radio receivers. Based on a Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller module, the AM Transmitter can transmit on 32 frequencies in the AM band, from 500 kHz up to 1.6 MHz in 32 steps of approx. 35 kHz. The frequency is selected with a potentiometer and shown on a 0.96" OLED display. A pushbutton allows toggles the transmitting mode between On and Off. The range of the transmitter depends on the antenna. The onboard antenna provides a range of a few centimeters, requiring the AM Transmitter to be placed close to or inside the radio. An external loop antenna (not included) can be connected to increase the range. The Elektor AM Transmitter Kit comes as a kit of parts that you must solder to the board yourself. Features The board is compatible with a Hammond 1593N enclosure (not included).A 5 VDC power supply with micro-USB connector (e.g., an old phone charger) is needed to power the kit (not included). Current consumption is 100 mA. The Arduino software (requiring Earle Philhower’s RP2040 Boards Package) for the Elektor AM Transmitter Kit plus more information is available at the Elektor Labs page of this project.
