ADS-B Capability Provider

This capability provider captures real-time messages from a telnet server that exposes AVR messages. These AVR messages are then parsed into a meaningful data structure and delivered via actor binding to a processor actor.

Pre-Requisites

The following must be in place in order to successfully run this provider in a waSCC host:

  • TCP connectivity to the telnet server exposed by the dump1090 application.
  • A machine connected to an RTL-SDR dongle and antenna combination with the appropriate device drivers. Consult the RTL SDR website for advice on purchasing devices, antennas, physical configuration, and device drivers and software installation for your equipment.

Simply run dump1090 --net or dump1090 --interactive --net to start the telnet server required by this capability provider.

Actor Bindings

When binding an actor to this capability provider, supply the following values to allow the capability provider to connect to a dump1090 telnet server:

  • PORT - port number of the dump1090 process (default 30002)
  • HOST - the host IP on which the dump1090 process is running
  • STATION_ID - the unique station ID that corresponds to the dump 1090 process
  • STATION_NAME - human-readable name of the station to which this binding is connecting
  • TIMEOUT - socket timeout period in milliseconds (default 30000 , 30 seconds)
