Hi all, I’m a researcher at a university lab in Hong Kong, working on positioning with LEO satellites in cities. I’m looking for raw Starlink downlink recordings where buildings block part of the sky.<\/p>\n
What would help most:<\/p>\n
– An LNB\/LNBF (or horn) + SDR (RTL-SDR, HackRF, USRP, etc.) recording the Ku-band downlink (~10.7\u201312.7 GHz)<\/p>\n
– Receiver sitting still at ground level next to buildings, ideally a street with tall buildings on both sides<\/p>\n
– Bonus: a second receiver on a nearby roof recording at the same time<\/p>\n
– GPS or NTP-synced timestamps and a rough location (street-level is fine, no need for your address)<\/p>\n
– 10\u201360 minutes is plenty<\/p>\n
Already have old recordings sitting on a drive? Those count too, even if the blockage was accidental.<\/p>\n
Not looking for dish app screenshots or speed tests this time, just the raw RF.<\/p>\n
Anything used would be credited in the paper’s acknowledgments (or however you’d like to be credited). Happy to answer questions about setup. Comment or DM me. Thanks!<\/p>\n
P.S. – You will be credited based on the contribution you make. This is for a new research project. Likely credit is acknowledgements. You can ask me for more depending on what you contribute.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n submitted by \/u\/http-brandon <\/a>
