摘要: A system for reception of radio transmissions includes: a collector, coupled to a plurality of transmitters via a plurality of wireless radio frequency (RF) links. The collector has a channelizer chain that receives an RF signal stream comprising broadcasts from the plurality of transmitters according to one or more known packet transmission protocols, converts the RF signal stream into digital bit streams that each correspond to a corresponding frequency channel. The collector also has a plurality of packet receivers that comport with a number of frequency channels provided by the channelizer chain and that are coupled in parallel to the channelizer chain. Each of the receivers processes more than one sample within each bit of a corresponding digital bit stream to detect, demodulate, and decode bits of the corresponding digital bit stream into packet payloads. The collector validates the packet payloads and forwards the packet payloads to one or more entities. A configuration processor enable and disables selected channels to comport with location.
