Integrating F' GDS with COSMOS/GNURadio

[mattoro]

Hi,

My current goal is to implement the F' GDS packet framing, deframing, file uplink and downlink infrastructure for radio hardware, and hopefully integrate the F' GDS with COSMOS/GNURadio.

At the moment, I am a bit lost on where to begin, or what components/files will need to be replaced. For instance, should I begin with the StandardPipeline (and the ThreadedTCPSocketClient), or the current Ref deployment itself? Will a new adapter (using https://github.com/fprime-community/fprime-gds/blob/devel/src/fprime_gds/common/communication/adapters/base.py) need to be created first?

Lastly, I saw that there was an attempt to integrate Fprime with COSMOS several years ago in fprime-community, but it does not seem to be supported any longer. Has anyone else been able to achieve something similar?

EDIT: Would scrapping COSMOS and attempting to use F' GDS as our ground station by writing a radio driver and communication plugin for the GDS be a more viable option?

Thank you!
