RA-Sentinel Code Liberation
Royalty free synthesizable Verilog code for signal processing
RA-Sentinel is a small, low-power wide band radio receiver device that automatically detects various malicious attacks on Wifi access points, such as Man in the Middle and Denial of Service attacks. The RA-Sentinel project is designed to protect your home WiFi from unwanted cyber threats. The RA-Sentinel Code Liberation project replaces hardware-specific "black box" components in RA-Sentinel with fully portable, openly licensed code that anyone can use, modify, and redistribute. The project will lower entry barriers to FPGA development, ensure long-term sustainability free from vendor licensing restrictions and product deprecation, and empower the global community to innovate without costly proprietary constraints. This work directly supports digital sovereignty, inclusive access to technology, and fostering community-driven innovation.
This project was funded through the NGI0 Commons Fund, a fund established by NLnet with financial support from the European Commission's Next Generation Internet programme, under the aegis of DG Communications Networks, Content and Technology under grant agreement No 101135429. Additional funding is made available by the Swiss State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation (SERI).
