Change the I/Q lookup table values for better detection
Change the I/Q lookup table for better detection. Changes fully described in the source dump1090.c at line 347 onwards. This change results in about 30% more frames being detected at weak signal input levels. Also a bug fix from the last commit - C doesn't support the min() function.

// Each I and Q value varies from 0 to 255, which represents a range from -1 to +1. To get from the
|
||||||
|
// unsigned (0-255) range you therefore subtract 127 (or 128 or 127.5) from each I and Q, giving you
|
||||||
|
// a range from -127 to +128 (or -128 to +127, or -127.5 to +127.5)..
|
||||||
|
//
|
||||||
|
// To decode the AM signal, you need the magnitude of the waveform, which is given by sqrt((I^2)+(Q^2))
|
||||||
|
// The most this could be is if I&Q are both 128 (or 127 or 127.5), so you could end up with a magnitude
|
||||||
|
// of 181.019 (or 179.605, or 180.312)
|
||||||
|
//
|
||||||
|
// However, in reality the magnitude of the signal should never exceed the range -1 to +1, becaure the
|
||||||
|
// values are I = rCos(w) and Q = rSin(w). Therefore the integer computed magnitude should (can?) never
|
||||||
|
// exceed 128 (or 127, or 127.5 or whatever)
|
||||||
|
//
|
||||||
|
// If we scale up the results so that they range from 0 to 65535 (16 bits) then we need to multiply
|
||||||
|
// by 511.99, (or 516.02 or 514). antirez's original code multiplies by 360, presumably because he's
|
||||||
|
// assuming the maximim calculated amplitude is 181.019, and (181.019 * 360) = 65166.
|
||||||
|
//
|
||||||
|
// So lets see if we can improve things by subtracting 127.5, Well in integer arithmatic we can't
|
||||||
|
// subtract half, so, we'll double everything up and subtract one, and then compensate for the doubling
|
||||||
|
// in the multiplier at the end.
|
||||||
|
//
|
||||||
|
// If we do this we can never have I or Q equal to 0 - they can only be as small as +/- 1.
|
||||||
|
// This gives us a minimum magnitude of root 2 (0.707), so the dynamic range becomes (1.414-255). This
|
||||||
|
// also affects our scaling value, which is now 65535/(255 - 1.414), or 258.433254
