Abstract
GNU Radio beacon receiver is a digital beacon receiver developed to receive beacon signals (150MHz and 400MHz) from LEO satellites for ionospheric study. This project is implemented based on software-defined radio (SDR) technology. Open source software GNU Radio is used with its friendly hardware USRP to perform real time reception. Some of the components like mixer, filter and demodulator are programed by GNU Radio, so greatly reduce the complexity of the circuit, thus, greatly reduce the cost of fabrication and maintenance compares to analog beacon receiver. Besides that, a satellite tracking program is developed to aim the reception of beacon signals. Satellite tracking program is developed by writing a python script that use PyEphem library for implementing astronomical algorithm.
