RF Noise Monitoring Node

Purpose

Track and visualise local RF noise pollution over time.

Status

Planning

Current Next Action

  • Define the first measurable RF noise metric and logging interval.

Build State

  • Purpose is defined.
  • Hardware and software architecture still need notes.
  • No baseline measurements have been captured yet.
  • RF Propagation Research
  • SDR Research
  • Monitoring Index
  • Content Pipeline

Decisions

  • Start with repeatable local measurement before attempting wider network comparisons.

Open Questions

  • Which bands should be monitored first?
  • What hardware gives enough repeatability without increasing support burden?
  • How should local interference events be annotated?

Publication Opportunities

  • Local RF noise floor explainer.
  • Build notes for the first monitoring node.
  • Future RF noise dashboard or downloadable starter pack.
