Paul Maine has shared a video tutorial about creating single side band (SSB) receivers using GNU Radio and an RTL-SDR dongle.
SSB signals require less bandwidth since they process a single sideband, making it popular in radio transmission.
The tutorial covers topics including explaining SSB, modelling an SSB modulator, and using a complex filter to separate audio.
While some of the concepts require understanding maths, the presenter keeps it light with mostly intuitive explanations.
The tutorial is ideal for anyone wishing to experiment with radio technology, even without the equipment, as it comes with a sample IQ file to practise with.
Recommended reading for beginners is also provided, reminding viewers of a previous Hackaday article on getting started with GNU Radio.
