SDRA'22 - 04 - Wojciech Kaczmarski, Niccolò Izzo: M17 Project; new digital voice mode for VHF and up

Wojciech Kaczmarski, SP5WWP
Radio amateur since 2016. ARRL's Technical Innovation Award 2021 recipient. Open source and hardware movement enthusiast. M17 Project founder and team lead.
Niccolò Izzo IU2KIN is pursuing a Ph.D. degree in information technology, at Politecnico di Milano, Italy. Among his research interests are security in traditional and emerging memory subsystems, and microarchitectural side channel attacks. In 2020 he co-founded the OpenRTX project: an open source firmware for digital radios.
M17 team is developing a new digital radio protocol for data and voice, made by and for amateur radio operators. The protocol's voice mode uses the free and open Codec 2 voice encoder. This means there are no patents, no royalties, and no licensing. This freedom to build, understand, and innovate is core to amateur radio, but has been missing from the commercially available digital voice modes. M17 is unlocking the capabilities that amateur radio hardware should already have. Started in Poland back in 2019, the project now embraces a vast community of radio operators from the whole world.

Interesting, so there is no longer any question of a square root Nyquist filter design? The content of this video is anecdotal, not to say ridiculous. Nice polo by the way.
