#grcon24 — Public Fediverse posts

Ah, @dkozel reminded me that it might make sense to remind people who need to relax from the #38c3 #SDR #CtF, there's even more, partially pretty involved, #RF CtFs from previous @gnuradio conferences:
- The #GRCon24 one: https://ctf-2024.gnuradio.org/
- The #GRCon23 one: https://ctf-2023.gnuradio.org/
- The #GRCon22 one: https://ctf-2022.gnuradio.org/

and you might spoiler yourself a bit on youtube: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbBQHMnVMR43Xlhj-IpT2mpAJhR4iNsaq

Monday skill extension post: The incredibly nice Dan Boschen agreed to offer two workshops at #GRCon24, and to share the recordings publicly. So: Here we go!

All you need to know to get started with FIR design in Python:

The #GRCon24 #CTF walk-through session begins in 15 minutes (14:00 EDT, 18:00 UTC). Come see how players decoded our mystery signals! https://gnuradio.gl.rna1.blindsidenetworks.com/rooms/emu-8mq-v4p-dw1/join

Andrej Rode (@noc0lour ) is rocking the stage, telling us about the virtues and fallouts of the @gnuradio Google Summer of Code participation! At #GRCon24, we see many excellent student contributions, and for coding work, students can even get paid for a season of creative work!

Now, Ere Oh and Matt Carrick are presenting TorchSig for Spectrogram analysis AND synthesis at #GRCon24 !
Reminder that slides are up in our schedule; https://events.gnuradio.org/event/24/contributions/628/ , and the live stream (https://grcon.stream) will later be cut and uploaded

Accelerating live on stage: John Moss of Oak Ridge, presenting the Spallation Neutron Source at #GRCon24

Her #GRCon24 Keynote has started, so Kristina Collins KD8OXT presents about what it is about The Lion In The 𝙋𝙧𝙤𝙥𝙖𝙜𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 Path, how we can find wisdom in the ionosphere, asking how to build scientific / engineering community cooperation. She's discussing the nature, uses, abuses and fun to be had with space weather science.

#Hamsci #CoDesignedScience #Spaaaaaaace

We're about to start the last day of this year's @gnuradio Conference (#GRCon24)! We let the incredible Kristina Collins, of Space Science Institute and hashtag#HamSci fame, open the day. A lot of her current work revolves around making complex information possible to experience – with sonification / augmented reality methods.

So, let's start this day off with an experience ourselves – if you're not in Knoxville yourself,you can still follow the stream at https://grcon.stream & ask in chat!

So here's some #GRCon24 social event and after-event facts:
1. There is an uncontestable @gnuradio bowling champion and he's manning the welcome desk
2. While A. is an absolute force of nature, Zhe Germans do actually do well in karaoke.
3. If you weren't at the knoxbox tonight, you might have been missing out

After an intense third day of #GRCon24 #CTF competition, the final results are:

1st: Aerospace Team Platypus
2nd: ThdrBrds
3rd: radiofrikis
4th: WhatTheFreq!
5th: Make WX Great Again

Full scoreboard: https://ctf-2024.gnuradio.org/scoreboard

Tune in tomorrow for solution demos.

And now it's @gnuradio board member Marc Lichtman rocking the RF recording world with Sigmf (sigmf.org)! #GRCon24

Now, at #GRCon24, Ralph Steinhagen of @FAIR_GSI_de fame, is giving us a highly energetic insight into research at the particle accelerator facility, and how GNU Radio 4.0 fit into that
Stream's still live at https://grcon.stream ; post-processed and cut videos later on Youtube. Don't forget to join the chat, and ask questions!

And we're into the Thursday Keynote of #GRCon24! It's Philip Erickson talking about how they keep a keen eye on the universe, its black holes and bright stars at MIT Haystack Observatory.
Stream at https://grcon.stream

The third day of talks of the Annual @gnuradio Conference #GRCon24 is about to kick off with the unbelievable @bluescreen introducing our Keynote speaker, Philip Erickson, Director of the MIT Haystack Observatory!
Stream live at https://grcon.stream; join us in chat and ask question (we do forward them to the hall if time permits)!

Eight hours to go in the #GRCon24 #CTF! Players are starting to get into the hard challenges and earn some big points. It's not too late to get started: https://ctf-2024.gnuradio.org/

You remember the Japanese SLIM Lunar Lander and wonder about the science payload rover? Then, Tetsuo Yoshimitsu's @gnuradio Conference 2024 talk is a must-see! He walks us how the relevant parts of the mission, the deployment process, and how communication with the craft was establlished. Super impressive!

Live stream at https://grcon.stream, videos cut and uploaded later, and slides at https://events.gnuradio.org/event/24/contributions/651/

#GRCon24 #SLIM #JAXA #SPAAAAAAACE

Michael Petry, PhD student, and Comms Engineer extraordinaire, talking about hardware acceleration for Non-Terrestrial 5G base stations. Very interesting stuff – he walks us from link budget calculations to an introduction to 5G systems, to computational system properties.

Did you know that there's not only the #GRCon24 stream on https://grcon.stream, but also the schedule & slides on https://events.gnuradio.org/event/24/timetable/#20240918.detailed; for this presentation, https://events.gnuradio.org/event/24/contributions/605/ holds all the material!

The top five teams are within 100 points of each other in the #GRCon24 #CTF! It's not too late to join in and decode some mystery signals. https://ctf-2024.gnuradio.org

Now up on stage, it's @setiinstitute 's @luigifcruz searching the aethereal waves for any signs of intelligence – at #grcon24 . Reminder: check out the live streams at https://grcon.stream , where there's also links to the chat rooms and further info!

How does one describe Radar (and other) pulses in a sensible way, within the @gnuradio ecosystem? James Humphries has you covered at #GRCon24!

#GRCon24 main track day 2 about to kick off!
We start with the keynote by Shahriar Sharamian, who's Director of the Communication & Sensing ASICs Research Group at Nokia Bell Laboratories.
The stream is life at https://grcon.stream (reload, you might still be getting yesterday's stream).
He might be famous for his VLOG ,,The Signal Path´´ https://thesignalpath.com/ . Live at @gnuradio Conference 2024!

At #GRCon24, Shammi Doly, researcher at WISCA / ASU is making the ubiquitous FMCW family of radars better, by applying adaptive waveform adaptation techniques.
The live stream is still undergoing at https://grcon.stream; the @gnuradio conference videos will later be cut and uploaded.

Chris Poore giving us the good word on the #FISSURE RF analysis framework!
Live on https://grcon.stream #GRcon24

Neil Rogers at #GRCon24 making undergrate education great: A Modern, Two-Course Undergraduate Communications Sequence!

At #GRCon24, Zachary Hicks will take us to the lower-cost end of actually making PYNQ SDR systems affordable!

@argilo tells you: You should play the #GRCon24 #CtF (signal Capture The Flag), even if you're not in-person at the @gnuradio ! https://ctf.gnuradio.org
#capturetheflag

By Hertz's beard! #GRCon24 swag is now available at https://gnuradio.myspreadshop.com/

Shout out to Dan Boschen (of DSP.SE fame!) giving a workshop on FIR Filters at #GRCon24! He's a tremendous teacher, and he's so much fun to learn from.
