rtl-wmbus - Software Decoder for Wireless-M-Bus with RTL-SDR
------------------------------------------------------------
rtl-wmbus is a software-defined radio receiver for Wireless-M-Bus. It is
written in plain C and uses RTL-SDR to interface with RTL2832-based hardware.
Wireless-M-Bus is the wireless version of M-Bus ("Meter-Bus", http://www.m-bus.com),
which is an European standard for remote reading of smart meters.
The primary purpose of rtl-wmbus is experimenting with digital signal
processing and software radio. rtl-wmbus can be used on resource constrained
devices such Raspberry Pi Zero or Raspberry PI B+ overclocked to 1GHz.
Any Android based tablet will do the same too.
rtl-wmbus provides:
* FSK demodulating
* clock recovery
* mode T1 and mode C1 packet decoding
rtl-wmbus requires:
* Linux or Android
* C99
* supported DVB-T receiver
* RTL-SDR library for Linux: http://sdr.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/rtl-sdr or
* (optional, only for android builds) RTL-SDR library port for Android: https://github.com/martinmarinov/rtl_tcp_andro-
For the latest version, see https://github.com/xaelsouth/rtl-wmbus
Installing
----------
The Osmocom RTL-SDR library must be installed before you can build
rtl-wmbus. See http://sdr.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/rtl-sdr for more
information. RTL-SDR library for Android would be installed via
Google Play.
To install rtl-wmbus, download, unpack the source code and go to the
top level directory. Then use one of these three options:
$ make debug # (no optimization at all, with debug options)
$ make release # (-O3 optimized version, without any debugging options)
$ make pi1 # (Raspberry Pi optimized version, without any debugging options,
will build on RasPi1) only
Before building Android version the SDK and NDK have to be installed.
See androidbuild.bat for how to build.
Usage
-----
Shown using "release"-version:
To save IQ-stream on disk and decode them off-line:
$ rtl_sdr samples.bin -f 868.9M -s 1600000
$ cat samples.bin | build/rtl_wmbus
To run continuously:
$ rtl_sdr -f 868.9M -s 1600000 - 2>/dev/null | build/rtl_wmbus
To count "good" (no 3 out of 6 errors, no checksum errors) packets:
$ cat samples.bin | build/rtl_wmbus 2>/dev/null | grep "[T,C]1;1;1" | wc -l
Carrier-frequency given at "-f" must be set properly. With my DVB-T-
Receiver I had to choose carrier 50kHz under the standard of 868.95MHz.
Sample rate at 1.6Ms/s is hardcoded and cannot be changed.
samples2.bin is a "life" example with two devices received.
On Android first the driver must be started with options given above.
IQ-data goes to a port which is would be already set by driver settings.
Use get_net to get IQ-data into rtl_wmbus.
