## Running RADE mode on Linux
|
||||
|

RADE is a new FreeDV mode that uses machine learning to improve voice quality and decoding ability.
|
||||
We are currently focused on Windows and macOS for initial development, but it is possible to run on
|
||||
Linux by following these steps:
|
||||
## Running FreeDV on Linux
|
||||
|
||||
1. Install PyTorch, TorchAudio and matplotlib Python packages. Some distros have packages for one or more of these,
|
||||
but you can also use pip in a Python virtual environment (recommended to ensure the latest versions):

|

to helping Linux users more easily get on the air with FreeDV, the FreeDV development team will not provide
|
||||
support. All support inquiries regarding this script should be directed to the linked repo.
|
||||
|
||||
## Building without LPCNet
|
||||
|
||||
In preparation for possible future deprecation of FreeDV 2020 and 2020B modes, it is
|
||||
possible to build without requiring the [LPCNet](https://github.com/drowe67/LPCNet.git) library.
|
||||
To do this, pass `LPCNET_DISABLE=1` as an environment variable to the build script, i.e.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ LPCNET_DISABLE=1 ./build_linux.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
or alternatively, do not pass in `LPCNET_BUILD_DIR` to `cmake` if manually executing the build.
|
||||
This also has the side effect of disabling 2020 and 2020B in the user interface, preventing either
|
||||
from being selected.
|
||||
|
||||

class="header-section-number">9.3</span> FreeDV 2020</h2>
|
||||
<p>FreeDV 2020 was developed in 2019. It uses an experimental codec
|
||||
based on the LPCNet neural net (deep learning) synthesis engine
|
||||
developed by Jean-Marc Valin. It offers 8 kHz audio bandwidth in an RF
|
||||
bandwidth of just 1600 Hz. FreeDV 2020 employs the same OFDM modem and
|
||||
FEC as 700D.</p>
|
||||
<p>The purpose of FreeDV 2020 is to test neural net speech coding over
|
||||
HF radio. It is highly experimental, and possibly the first use of
|
||||
neural net vocoders in a real world, over the air system.</p>
|
||||
<p>FreeDV 2020 is designed for slow fading HF channels with a SNR of
|
||||
10dB or better. It is not designed for fast fading or very low SNRs like
|
||||
700D. It is designed to be a high quality alternative to SSB in channels
|
||||
where SSB is already an “arm-chair” copy. On an AWGN (non- fading
|
||||
channel), it will deliver reasonable speech quality down to 2dB SNR.</p>
|
||||
<p>FreeDV 2020 Tips:</p>
|
||||
<ol type="1">
|
||||
<li>It requires a modern (post 2010) Intel CPU with AVX support. If you
|
||||
don’t have AVX the FreeDV 2020 mode button will be grayed out.</li>
|
||||
<li>Some voices may sound very rough. In early testing about 90% of
|
||||
speakers tested work well.</li>
|
||||
<li>Like 700D, you must tune within -/+ 60Hz for FreeDV 2020 to
|
||||
sync.</li>
|
||||
<li>With significant fading, sync may take a few seconds.</li>
|
||||
<li>There is a 2 second end-to-end latency. You are welcome to try

||||
tuning this (Tools - Options - FIFO size, also see Sound Card Debug

|
||||
<p>Experimental mode developed in February 2022. The goal of this mode
|
||||
is to improve the performance of FreeDV 2020 over HF channels.</p>
|
||||
<p>Here are the three main innovations, and the theoretical
|
||||
improvements:</p>
|
||||
<ol type="1">
|
||||
<li>Compression (clipping) of the 2020x modem waveforms has been added,
|
||||
which is worth about 4dB. This should also improve the original FreeDV
|
||||
2020 mode. The Clipping checkbox is located on Tools-Options-Modem. As
|
||||
per the other warnings in this manual please make sure you transmitter
|
||||
can handle the higher RMS power.</li>
|
||||
<li>2020B is like 700E to 700D - it works with fast fading but requires
|
||||
a few more dB of SNR. This will make it usable in European Winter (or
|
||||
over the South Pole Argentina to Australia) type channels - if you have
|
||||
enough SNR. The challenge with this mode is squeezing all the
|
||||
information we need (enough pilots symbols for fast fading, LPCNet, FEC
|
||||
bits) into a 2100 Hz channel - we are pushing up again the edges of many
|
||||
SSB filters. It also uses unequal FEC, just the most important 11 bits
|
||||
are protected.</li>

||||
</ol>
|
||||
<p>This modes is under development and may change at any time. If you
|
||||
experience comparability issues with another operator - check your Git
|
||||
Hash values on the Help-about menu to ensure you are running the same
|
||||
versions of LPCNet and codec2.</p>
|
||||
<p>It is recommended that multi-RX be disabled when using 2020B. This
|
||||
mode is not supported by multi-RX, you will need to manually coordinate
|
||||
the mode with other stations.</p>

<p>RADE is a new mode with state-of-the-art performance, it is a

contraction of Radio AutoencoDEr so-named because the modulation

<p>Unlike the previous FreeDV modes which all use QPSK modulation, the

<p>In order to use FreeDV 2020 mode, you must have both of the
|

following:</p>
|

<ol type="1">
|

<li>If using an Intel based CPU, it must have AVX support. A Microsoft
|

utility called <a

href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/coreinfo">coreinfo</a>
|
||||
can be used to determine if your CPU supports AVX. A * means you have
|

AVX, a - means no AVX:</li>

</ol>
|

<pre><code>AES - Supports AES extensions
|
||||
AVX * Supports AVX instruction extensions
|

FMA - Supports FMA extensions using YMM state</code></pre>
|

<p>On Linux, you can check for <code>avx</code> in the
|
||||
<strong>flags</strong> section of <code>/proc/cpuinfo</code> or the
|
||||
output of the <code>lscpu</code> command:</p>
|
||||
<pre><code>lscpu | grep -o "avx[^ ]*"</code></pre>
|
||||
<p>will display <code>avx</code> (or <code>avx2</code>) if your CPU
|

supports the instructions.</p>

<li>Your computer must be able to decode 2020 at a minimum of 2x real
|
||||
time (i.e. < 0.5 seconds for 1 second of encoded audio). A Mac with
|
||||
an ARM processor (e.g. 2020 Mac Mini or later) is an example of such a
|
||||
device.</li>

<p>This version contains the first official release of the RADE V1 mode
|

previously trialled over several preview releases. Radio Autoencoder
|

(RADE) technology is a new approach to sending speech over HF radio. It
|

combines Machine Learning (ML) with classical DSP to send high quality
|
||||
speech over HF radio at SNRs as low as -2dB in a bandwidth of 1500 Hz.

FreeDV 700E was developed in December 2020 using lessons learned from on air operation of 700C and 700D. A variant of 700D, it uses a shorter frame size (80ms) to reduce latency and sync time. It is optimized for fast fading channels channels with up to 4Hz Doppler spread and 6ms delay spread. FreeDV 7000E uses the same 700 bit/s codec as FreeDV 700C and 700D. It requires about 3dB more power than 700D, but can operate reliably on fast fading channels.

|

The 700E release also includes optional compression (clipping) of the 700D and 700E transmit waveforms to reduce the Peak to Average Power Ratio to about 4dB. For example a 100W PEP transmitter can be driven to about 40W RMS. This is an improvement of 6dB over previous releases of FreeDV 700D. Before enabling the clipper make sure your transmitter is capable of handling sustained high average power without damage.

On good channels with high SNR clipping may actually reduce the SNR of the received signal. This is intentional - we are adding some pre-distortion in order to increase the RMS power. Forward error correction (FEC) will clean up any errors introduced by clipping, and on poor channels the benefits of increased signal power outweigh the slight reduction in SNR on good channels.

## FreeDV 2020
|
||||
## FreeDV RADEV1
|
||||
|
||||
FreeDV 2020 was developed in 2019. It uses an experimental codec
|
||||
based on the LPCNet neural net (deep learning) synthesis engine
|
||||
developed by Jean-Marc Valin. It offers 8 kHz audio bandwidth in an
|
||||
RF bandwidth of just 1600 Hz. FreeDV 2020 employs the same OFDM modem
|
||||
and FEC as 700D.
|
||||
RADE is a new mode with state-of-the-art performance, it is a contraction of Radio AutoencoDEr so-named because the modulation encoding uses a Machine-Learning method where the modulation and demodulation are achieved by training on a large number of speech samples over a modelled radio channel with typical propagation disturbances in phase and amplitude as found in HF radio. The speech is synthesised using the FARGAN neural vocoder (Frame-wise Auto-Regressive GAN) where GAN is a Generative Adversarial Network).
|
||||
|
||||
The purpose of FreeDV 2020 is to test neural net speech coding over HF
|
||||
radio. It is highly experimental, and possibly the first use of
|
||||
neural net vocoders in a real world, over the air system.
|
||||
|
||||
FreeDV 2020 is designed for slow fading HF channels with a SNR of 10dB
|
||||
or better. It is not designed for fast fading or very low SNRs like
|
||||
700D. It is designed to be a high quality alternative to SSB in
|
||||
channels where SSB is already an "arm-chair" copy. On an AWGN (non-
|
||||
fading channel), it will deliver reasonable speech quality down to 2dB
|
||||
SNR.
|
||||
|
||||
FreeDV 2020 Tips:
|
||||
|
||||
1. It requires a modern (post 2010) Intel CPU with AVX support. If you
|
||||
don't have AVX the FreeDV 2020 mode button will be grayed out.
|
||||
1. Some voices may sound very rough. In early testing
|
||||
about 90% of speakers tested work well.
|
||||
1. Like 700D, you must tune within -/+ 60Hz for FreeDV 2020 to sync.
|
||||
1. With significant fading, sync may take a few seconds.
|
||||
1. There is a 2 second end-to-end latency. You are welcome to try tuning
|
||||
this (Tools - Options - FIFO size, also see Sound Card Debug
|
||||
section below).
|
||||
|
||||
## FreeDV 2020B
|
||||
|
||||
Experimental mode developed in February 2022. The goal of this mode is to improve the performance of FreeDV 2020 over HF channels.
|
||||
|
||||
Here are the three main innovations, and the theoretical improvements:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Compression (clipping) of the 2020x modem waveforms has been added, which is worth about 4dB. This should also improve the original FreeDV 2020 mode. The Clipping checkbox is located on Tools-Options-Modem. As per the other warnings in this manual please make sure you transmitter can handle the higher RMS power.
|
||||
1. 2020B is like 700E to 700D - it works with fast fading but requires a few more dB of SNR. This will make it usable in European Winter (or over the South Pole Argentina to Australia) type channels - if you have enough SNR. The challenge with this mode is squeezing all the information we need (enough pilots symbols for fast fading, LPCNet, FEC bits) into a 2100 Hz channel - we are pushing up again the edges of many SSB filters. It also uses unequal FEC, just the most important 11 bits are protected.
|
||||
|
||||
This modes is under development and may change at any time. If you experience comparability issues with another operator - check your Git Hash values on the Help-about menu to ensure you are running the same versions of LPCNet and codec2.
|
||||
|
||||
It is recommended that multi-RX be disabled when using 2020B. This mode is not supported by multi-RX, you will need to manually coordinate the mode with other stations.
|
||||
Unlike the previous FreeDV modes which all use QPSK modulation, the RADEV1 modulation produces an analog phase-amplitude output without defined constellation points. It has been chosen as it offers a combination of high speech quality together with reduced RF bandwidth and good resistance to fading and multipath HF radio channels.

## Test Frame Histogram
|
||||
|
||||
This feature was developed for testing FreeDV 700C. Select the Test
|
||||
Frame Histogram tab on Front Page
|
||||
|
||||
Displays BER of each carrier when in "test frame" mode. As each QPSK
|
||||
carrier has 2 bits there are 2*Nc histogram points.
|
||||
|
||||
Ideally all carriers will have about the same BER (+/- 20% after 5000
|
||||
total bit errors), however problems can occur with filtering in the
|
||||
TX path. If one carrier has less power, then it will have a higher
|
||||
BER. The errors in this carrier will tend to dominate overall
|
||||
BER. For example if one carrier is attenuated due to SSB filter ripple
|
||||
in the TX path then the BER on that carrier will be higher. This is
|
||||
bad news for DV.
|
||||
|
||||
Suggested usage:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Transmit FreeDV in test frame mode. Use a 2nd RX (or
|
||||
get a friend) to monitor your RX signal with FreeDV in test frame
|
||||
mode.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Adjust your RX SNR to get a BER of a few % (e.g. reduce TX
|
||||
power, use a short antenna for the RX, point your beam away, adjust RX
|
||||
RF gain).
|
||||
|
||||
1. Monitor the error histogram for a few minutes, until you have say
|
||||
5000 total bit errors. You have a problem if the BER of any carrier
|
||||
is more than 20% different from the rest.
|
||||
|
||||
1. A typical issue will be one carrier at 1.0 and the others at 0.5,
|
||||
indicating the poorer carrier BER is twice the larger.

## FreeDV 2020 mode is grayed out
|
||||
|
||||
In order to use FreeDV 2020 mode, you must have both of the following:
|
||||
|
||||
1. If using an Intel based CPU, it must have AVX support. A Microsoft utility called [coreinfo](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/coreinfo)
|
||||
can be used to determine if your CPU supports AVX. A * means you have
|
||||
AVX, a - means no AVX:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
AES - Supports AES extensions
|
||||
AVX * Supports AVX instruction extensions
|
||||
FMA - Supports FMA extensions using YMM state
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
On Linux, you can check for `avx` in the **flags** section of `/proc/cpuinfo`
|
||||
or the output of the `lscpu` command:
|
||||
```
|
||||
lscpu | grep -o "avx[^ ]*"
|
||||
```
|
||||
will display `avx` (or `avx2`) if your CPU supports the instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Your computer must be able to decode 2020 at a minimum of 2x real time (i.e. < 0.5 seconds for 1 second of encoded audio). A Mac with an ARM processor (e.g. 2020 Mac Mini or later) is an example of such a device.
|
||||
|
||||
If your system does not meet either (1) or (2), the 2020 option will be grayed out.

It combines Machine Learning (ML) with classical DSP to send high quality speech over HF radio at SNRs
|
||||
as low as -2dB in a bandwidth of 1500 Hz. More information about Radio Autoencoder can be found at
