.Transmitting
|
||||
|
||||
Immediately before the start of a transmission _WSJT-X_ encodes a
|
||||
user's message and computes the sequence of tones to be sent. The
|
||||
audio waveform is computed on-the-fly, with 16-bit integer samples
|
||||
sent to the audio output device at a 48000 Hz rate. Generated signals
|
||||
have continuous phase and constant amplitude, and there are no key
|
||||
clicks. The transmitter's power amplifier need not be highly linear.
|
||||
|
||||
.Receiving
|
||||
|
||||
_WSJT-X_ acquires 16-bit integer samples from the audio input device
|
||||
at a 48000 Hz rate and immediately downsamples the stream to 12000 Hz.
|
||||
Spectra from overlapping segments are computed for the waterfall
|
||||
display and saved for the decoder at intervals of 3456/12000 = 0.288
|
||||
s, half the JT9 symbol length.
|
||||
|
||||
.Decoding
|
||||
|
||||
At the end of a reception sequence, about 50 seconds into the UTC
|
||||
minute, received data samples are forwarded to the decoder. In JT9
|
||||
and JT65 modes the decoder goes through its full procedure twice:
|
||||
first at the selected Rx frequency, and then over the full displayed
|
||||
frequency range. Each decoding pass can be described as a sequence of
|
||||
discrete blocks. Details of the functional blocks are different for
|
||||
each mode. In dual-mode JT9+JT65 operation on computers with more
|
||||
than one CPU, decoding computations for the two modes are done in
|
||||
parallel.
|
||||
|
||||
The basic decoding algorithm for JT65 mode is described in the 2005
|
||||
{jt65protocol} paper. The following list summarizes the corresponding
|
||||
algorithm for JT9 mode. Blocks are labeled here with the names of
|
||||
functional procedures in the code.
|
||||
|
||||
[horizontal]
|
||||
+sync9+:: Use sync symbols to find candidate JT9 signals
|
||||
in the specified frequency range
|
||||
|
||||
Then, at the frequency of each plausible candidate:
|
||||
|
||||
[horizontal]
|
||||
+downsam9+:: Mix, filter and downsample to 16 complex
|
||||
samples/symbol
|
||||
|
||||
+peakdt9+:: Using sync symbols, time-align to start of JT9 symbol
|
||||
sequence
|
||||
|
||||
+afc9+:: Measure frequency offset and possible drift
|
||||
|
||||
+twkfreq+:: Remove frequency offset and drift
|
||||
|
||||
+symspec2+:: Compute 8-bin spectra for 69 information-carrying
|
||||
symbols, using the time- and frequency-aligned data;
|
||||
transform to yield 206 single-bit soft symbols
|
||||
|
||||
+interleave9+:: Remove single-bit interleaving imposed at the
|
||||
transmitter
|
||||
|
||||
+decode9+:: Retrieve a 72-bit user message using the sequential
|
||||
Fano algorithm
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
+unpackmsg+:: Unpack a human-readable message from the 72-bit
|
||||
compressed format
|
||||
|
||||
Decoding of clean JT9 signals in a white-noise background starts to
|
||||
fail below signal-to-noise ratio -25 dB and reaches 50% copy at -26
|
||||
dB.
|
||||
|
||||
With marginal or unrecognizable signals the sequential Fano algorithm
|
||||
can take exponentially long times. If the +sync9+ step in the above
|
||||
sequence finds many seemingly worthy candidate signals and many of
|
||||
them turn out to be undecodable, the decoding loop can take an
|
||||
inconveniently long time. For this reason the step labeled +decode9+
|
||||
is programmed to "`time out`" and report failure for a given signal if
|
||||
it takes too long. The choices *Fast | Normal | Deepest* on the
|
||||
*Decode* menu provide the user with a three-step adjustment of the
|
||||
timeout limit.
|
||||
|
||||
Decoding in JT4 and WSPR modes is basically similar to that for JT9.
|
||||
The same K=32, r=1/2 sequential Fano algorithm is used for all three
|
||||
modes. Other details such as tone numbers, symbol lengths,
|
||||
synchronizing scheme, and subroutine names are distinct for each mode.
|
||||
The WSPR decoder now uses a two-pass algorithm. Decoded signals are
|
||||
reconstructed and subtracted from the received waveform, after which a
|
||||
second decoding pass takes place.
