Sessions
Wireless signals are pervasive from high above in orbit, on the ground, and all the places in between. This presentation will focus mostly on unencrypted signals easily received and analyzed, sent from birds (Motus), balloons (NWS upper air), aircraft (ADS-B and UAT), and drones (RID), to name just a few taking place from a few feet to 15 miles above ground. Some limited ethical ways to access encrypted flying signals may also be explored. Topics will include how to receive, what is needed, what to do with the data, important use cases, and overall ethics for unintended users surrounding them. Some hands-on demonstrations will also take place following the presentation in the RF Village for those interested in some deeper information.
