***Example: OsmoSDR-compatible Signal Source***
[OsmoSDR](http://sdr.osmocom.org/trac) is a small form-factor, inexpensive software defined radio project. It provides a driver for several front-ends, such as [RTL-based dongles](http://sdr.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/rtl-sdr), HackRF, bladeRF, etc. Note that not all the OsmoSDR-compatible devices can work as radio frequency front-ends for proper GNSS signal reception, please check the specifications. For suitable RF front-ends, you can use:

In order to start using GNSS-SDR, you may want to populate ```gnss-sdr/data``` folder (or anywhere else on your system) with raw data files. By "raw data" we mean the output of a Radio Frequency front-end's Analog-to-Digital converter. GNSS-SDR needs signal samples already in baseband or in passband, at a suitable intemediate frequency (on the order of MHz). Prepare your configuration file, and then you are ready for running ```gnss-sdr --config_file=your_configuration.conf```, and seeing how the file is processed.
Another interesting option is working in real-time with a RF front-end. We provide drivers for UHD-compatible hardware such as the [USRP family](http://www.ettus.com/product), for OsmoSDR and other front-ends (HackRF, bladeRF), for the GN3S v2 USB dongle and for some DVB-T USB dongles. Start with a low number of channels and then increase it in order to test how many channels your processor can handle in real-time.
