Sharing & Managing SDR Streams

The WSDR.io platform provides tools for sharing, storing, and managing SDR data via WebSocket streams and cloud storage.

This section covers:

• Share Device – Share your SDR with remote users.

• Streams – Manage and reuse SDR data streams.

• Cloud Storage – Store and share IQ samples.

1. Share Device

The Share Device app allows you to share your SDR with others via WebSocket.

Stream Modes:

• Controlled – Remote users can adjust hardware settings (if allowed).

• Uncontrolled – Remote users can only receive the stream.

Steps:

• Open Applications, select Share Device.

• Choose an SDR Source (USB device, network stream).

• Configure Parameters (frequency, bandwidth, gain).

• Copy and share the Device Stream URL with another users.

• Click Run to start streaming.

Note

Any WSDR.io application can generate a stream. Streams are received over WebSocket.

2. Streams

The Streams tab saves incoming SDR streams.

Steps to Create a Stream:

• Open Streams in the WSDR.io menu.

• Click Create Stream.

• Enter a Name.

• Paste the Device Stream URL.

• Select Stream Type:

  • WebSocket (Uncontrolled)

  • WebSocket with Control

• Ensure Data Type matches original stream.

Note

Controlled WebSocket streams need a local daemon tool.

Saved streams are accessible from all WSDR.io applications.

3. Cloud Storage

Store and share IQ samples in the WSDR.io platform.

Steps:

• Go to Cloud Storage.

• Click + to create a container.

• Enter a name and select Storage Type: - WSDR (internal) - Azure (external integration)

• Set Access Type:

  • Private Container

  • Shared Container

Note

‘Private container’ is for your files, and the ‘shared container’ is for the files being shared with you.

• Create directories, upload files.

To Share a File:

• Click + to create a share link.

• Send the link to another user.

• They added the link to their shared container in cloud storage.

To Revoke Access:

• Disable the shared link.

Open Files in Applications:
