The RFspace Cloud\u00adIQ is a high performance, direct sampling software radio with an ethernet interface. It offers outstanding low distortion, low noise and low spurious characteristics. The CloudIQ radio was developed for both direct streaming of I\/Q data to the PC, as well as, remote radio monitoring anywhere in the world. It performs spectrum analysis, demodulation, and streaming to a computer.<\/p>\n

The Cloud\u00adIQ features a direct sampled 9kHz to 56 MHz RF port. It includes a two input antenna\u00a0switch that can be remotely selected. One input can be used for VHF and one for HF. The RF port\u00a0has built\u00adin variable attenuation, preselection and surge protection. The Cloud\u00adIQ is designed to be\u00a0connected directly to antennas without the need of external amplifiers or extra filtering.\u00a0The Cloud\u00adIQ handles all of the streaming via ethernet. It offers an I\/Q streaming mode where the\u00a0radio sends 24 bit I\/Q pairs to the PC for processing. This I\/Q mode offers one of the cleanest and highest dynamic range baseband signals that we have seen in any commercial receiver. The I\/Q\u00a0balance, DC spur, IMD and phase noise performance is superb. This mode of operation has a very\u00a0high ethernet bandwidth utilization which limits the use to direct to PC connections.<\/p>\n

In addition to the I\/Q streaming mode, the Cloud\u00adIQ has a low bandwidth, cloud mode for internet\u00a0operation. In this mode, the radio will capture spectrum data as well as demodulate the signals of interest. The radio has built in demodulators for AM, SAM, LSB, USB, WFN, FM, CW, ASK, OOK,\u00a0and PSK31. The radio will compress the demodulated waveform using the high performance and\u00a0phase continuous G726 and G711 codecs. The raw 64 kbit\/s stream can also be selected if that is\u00a0preferred.<\/p>\n

The Cloud\u00adIQ\u2019s cloud mode also offers a variable width spectrum analyzer with adjustable spans up\u00a0to 10 MHz wide. The spectrum update rate can be adjusted up to 10 Hz or turned off to limit the\u00a0bandwidth utilization. In addition, the built\u00adin squelch can be used to limit data transmission when no\u00a0signals are present.<\/p>\n

Features:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wideband spectrum analyzer mode offers 56 MHz wide spectral captures in both 2D, 3D and\u00a0waterfall formats.
\n9kHz low end frequency range allows SONAR, VLF and ultrasound applications.
\nTCXO for best frequency stability.
\nThe Cloud\u00adIQ has an internal triggering mode for capturing repetitive signals. The internal trigger\u00a0mode allows the phase to be adjusted, as well as the frequency in steps of 1nHz.
\nThe built\u00adin remote server allows the Cloud\u00adIQ to be placed anywhere in the world. A PC running\u00a0Windows, Linux, Android or MacOS is able to access the radio with very low latency. It does not
\n5\/15\/2015 CLOUD\u00adIQ RFspace CONNECTED SDR\u00a0require a PC at the server side and the server is available within 10 seconds of boot up.\u00a0An Android application has been developed to access the Cloud\u00adIQ in cloud mode. In addition, an\u00a0open source client is available license free for Windows, Linux and MacOS. Programming is\u00a0extremely easy since all of the DSP, FFTs and scaling are done inside the radio.
\n\u00ad
\nBuilt\u00adin RS\u00ad232 connector for logging and control of\u00a0REMOTE OPERATION
\nThe RFSPACE Cloud\u00adIQ is designed for streaming I\/Q spectrum data to a PC or to be remotely\u00a0located anywhere on the internet. The built\u00adin remote server allows the Cloud\u00adIQ to serve as a remote\u00a0receiver node or receive gateway anywhere in the world. The fact that the Cloud\u00adIQ does not require\u00a0a computer, makes it highly reliable. During remote operation, the radio handles all of the\u00a0demodulation, compression, directory listing, spectrum FFT processing and packetizing. The client\u00a0application just sends the center frequency, demod mode and other settings and gets the formatted\u00a0audio and spectrum packets. All of the DSP is handled server side. In order to make custom\u00a0application development easy, RFSPACE supplies an open source and license free\u00a0RemoteSDRClient application using the QT framework. It can be compiled for Windows, Mac OS and\u00a0Linux. RFSPACE also supplies a compiled Android client that has been optimized for 3G \u00a0and LTE\u00a0connections.<\/p>\n
