ANALOG DEVICES ADALM-Pluto SDR Software Defined Radio Active Learning Module PlutoSDR

Connecting RF Theory with RF Practice: The PlutoSDR works as a portable lab that, when used with a host, can augment classroom learning. MATLAB and Simulink are two of the many software packages supported by PlutoSDR, and it provides an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) so students can learn faster, work smarter, and explore more.

Made for Teachers, Students, and Self-Learners: The PlutoSDR features independent receive and transmit channels that can be operated in full duplex. The active learning module can generate or acquire RF analog signals from 325 MHz to 3800 MHz at up to 61.44 megasamples per second (MSPS). Small enough to fit in a shirt pocket, the PlutoSDR is completely self-contained and entirely USB powered with the default firmware. Because PlutoSDR is enabled by libiio drivers, it supports OS X, Windows, and Linux, which allows students to learn and explore on a variety of devices.

With dozens of available online tutorials for SDR-based projects, PlutoSDR boasts labs and teaching material covering topics such as ADS-B aircraft position, receiving NOAA and Meteor-M2 weather satellite imagery, GSM analysis, listening to TETRA signals, pager decoding, and many more!
