r2cloud converts Raspberry PI into the base station which supports various radio signals, such as:

• ADS-B (airplane)
• APT (weather satellite)
• 2FSK telemetry demodulation for various cubesats

1. Insert SD card into the card reader and create file r2cloud.txt in the root directory. This file should contain any random string. This string is a login token. This token will be used during initial setup.

2. Login via SSH and execute the following commands:

sudo gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 129E7CDE
sudo gpg --armor --export 129E7CDE | sudo apt-key add -
sudo bash -c "echo 'deb [arch=armhf] http://s3.amazonaws.com/r2cloud r2cloud main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/r2cloud.list"
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install r2cloud

• Autonomous:
  • Ability to operate without internet connection
  • synchronize state once connection restored
  • automatically calibrate average absolute error
  • configure base station location based on coordinates from GPS receiver
  • new decoders could be added after auto-update
• Integration with external systems:
  • share as much as possible data with external systems
  • re-use libraries
• Single stack
  • focus on single hardware and software stack
  • optimize it
• Stability
  • housekeeping logs and data based on available hard disk
  • auto-update
  • backward compatibility
• Security
  • safe to expose administration UI to the internet
