You can avoid this using the USB extension cable. If you connect the receiver to one of the USB port on Raspberry Pi directly, it will cover other ports.MicroSDHC Class 10 (high speed class) is highly recommended.Make sure memory card package includes the SD adapter so that you could use this card in a normal PC (which usually has a SD card reader but not the microSD.You will need a 2A power supply for Raspberry Pi.We'll assume that you already have a PC with microSD or SD card reader, monitor with HDMI connection and USB keyboard and mouse needed for installation and that you don't have to order the additionally. (9) (Optional) Cable SMA Female - MCX Male.(8) (Optional) Band-pass Filter SMA Female - SMA Male.(6) ADS-B Antenna with N Female Connector.(2) Memory Card 32GB MicroSDHC Class 10, SD adapter.Your router must support WiFi so that you could connect Raspberry Pi to the network wirelessly.If you don't have a static IP address (you normally don't), your router must support dynamic DNS using a provider like. OpenSky Network needs a static host name or IP address to connect to your base station.If you want to feed your data into OpenSky Network, you must be able to open and forward ports on your router.The most important prerequisite is place with clear view of the sky where you could place the antenna.This guide assumes installation in a home network with internet connection via router like FRITZ!Box. Instructions below are based on the ADS-B using dump1090 for the Raspberry Pi guide. You will also be able to feed your data into OpenSky Network and other networks and use it in local applications like PlanePlotter. The proposed base station will be able to receive and decode transponder signals from planes in the radius of up to 200-300 km. This guide explains how to assemble a simple ADS-B base station using Raspberry Pi and cheap off-the-shelf componentsĪnd how to connect your station to the OpenSky Network.
