Acknowledgments
This book would not exist without … the GNU Radio development team. Over the years, numerous contributors have improved the software, sometimes with challenging decision on the software architecture (e.g. SWIG to PyBIND transition), but always to achieve utmost quality and performance. Next to the development, the opensource spirit has driven not only software development but also sharing the complex field of digital signal processing. By tackling practical applications, GNU Radio provides a fun and attractive framework for becoming familiar with such obscure concepts as an imaginary voltage or a negative frequency.
In this vein, the GNU Radio related conferences have been the opportunity for developers not only to share results as is usual in “scientific” conferences, but most importantly the means to achieve and reproduce these results. The American GNU Radio Conference with its proceedings available at https://pubs.gnuradio.org and YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@GNURadioProject, the European Free Open-Source DEveloper Meeting (FOSDEM) software defined radio devroom and the European GNU Radio Days – with its YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@europeangnuradiodays1445/ that both authors have helped co-organize since 2018 – have been the source of inspiration and motivation with technical discussions with speakers and attendees.
