Meshtastic / Meshcore research and plans.
Basic plan
I want to build an off-grid, movable, solar-powered station for LoRa based mesh networking and ADS-B receiving.
Functional requirements
The system should be able to:
- Receive and decode 1090MHz ADS-B signals
- Send and Receive 868MHz LoRa Signals for Mesh networking
- Be maintainable from a remote position
Proposed parts
Not quite yet a BOM
Raspberry Pi Zero 2, for running dump1090 and remote firmware updating
Waveshare LTE Hat, cellular service
2x LoRa Radio, One for meshcore, one for meshtastic
Battery, lead-acid for lower maintaince
Software BOM
| What | Why |
|---|---|
| Raspbian Lite | Basic OS |
| Dump1090 | Decoding ADS-B |
| Wireguard | VPN Tunnel for remote management |
| PlatformIO | Building and flashing the LoRa nodes |
