TCP Aircraft Server
The tcp aircraft server (in sw/tools/tcp_aircraft_server/) is an agent that re-broadcasts the ivy telemetry stream from a specified vehicle over tcp to a specified remote ip which hosts its own local ground segment ivy network. This allows the broadcast of a vehicle telemetry stream over the internet to a remote party without the need for VPNs.
Usage
Broadcast Ground Station
If you have not done so already, set your Paparazzi src and home directories:
export PAPARAZZI_SRC=~/path/to/paparazzi export PAPARAZZI_HOME=~/path/to/paparazzi
Then, from your Paparazzi directory, run:
./sw/ground_segment/tmtc/ivy_tcp_aircraft -id <ac_id_number> -h <remote IP>
Recipient Computer
Run:
./sw/tools/tcp_aircraft_server/tcp_aircraft_server.py
Then open Paparazzi Center using the -n option for the Server unless you wish to log messages locally, and use the tools within Paparazzi Center as you would do normally.
The recipient side of the setup broadcasts locally over the default Paparazzi ivy bus 127.255.255.255:2010
