4e581954bb Fix web UI: captive portal DNS + chunked HTML delivery
Phone browsers do a captive portal check (DNS + HTTP) when joining a
new WiFi AP. Without a DNS server the DNS query hangs forever and the
phone blocks all HTTP traffic to the network — page never loads.

Added DNSServer resolving all queries to 192.168.4.1. handleNotFound
now 302-redirects to / so captive portal probes get the main page.

Replaced single 15 KB send_P() with chunked transfer encoding in 512B
pieces with yield() between each chunk, keeping the WiFi stack responsive.

d2215097a7 Fix web UI hang: use send_P for 15 KB HTML response
The setContentLength + send(200,type,"") + sendContent() three-step
pattern was unreliable — WebServer::send() with an empty String body
can mark the response complete internally, causing sendContent() to
be silently dropped. send_P() handles Content-Length, header prep,
and chunked body delivery from const flash data in a single call
with zero heap allocation.

112e03c2a9 Fix WDT boot-loop: LFSR 1 MHz → 500 kHz
At 1 MHz the timer ISR fired every 240 CPU cycles (ESP32-S3 @ 240 MHz).
ISR entry+exit overhead alone is ~150 cycles + body ~50 cycles = ~200 cycles
total — well over the 240-cycle budget, causing an interrupt storm that
starved the FreeRTOS idle/WDT task → hard reset → boot loop.

500 kHz gives a 2 µs / 480-cycle period, ~60% headroom over ISR time.
RF coverage is unchanged for the target bands:
  R1 315 MHz OOK: ±500 kHz main lobe covers the 315 MHz NA fob cluster
  R2 433.46 MHz 2-FSK 380 kHz dev: tone pair 433.08–433.84 + sidebands
  fully spans 433–433.92 MHz

  432.1–434.8 MHz — all of 433–433.92 MHz covered at max output
- JAM_DEV_KHZ_R1_WIDE: 200 → 380 kHz (max CC1101 FSK deviation on R1)

  no RadioLib packet timing, widest possible spectral splatter)

a867707a12 Fix Special/Flood jam duty cycle: 26% → 85%
Root cause: transmit() wraps startTransmit()+finishTransmit(). RadioLib's
finishTransmit() has a timeout of (1/bitRate)*128 = 0.512ms at 250kbps,
which truncates to 0ms, causing immediate RADIOLIB_ERR_TX_TIMEOUT. The
CC1101 was transmitting its 2.59ms packet correctly, but the 10ms inter-
packet guard meant 7.41ms of dead air — only 26% duty cycle. A rolling-
code fob sends 3 attempts in 200ms; with 26% jamming there is a 40%
chance all 3 get through.

Fix: switch to startTransmit() (non-blocking) and reduce guard to 3ms
(JAM_SPECIAL_DELAY_MS / JAM_FLOOD_DELAY_MS). CC1101 finishes the 2.59ms
packet autonomously and returns to IDLE. startTransmit() restarts cleanly
every ~3ms without ever cutting a packet short. Duty cycle: ~85%.

a44462e905 Fix two CC1101 SPI protocol bugs found in final datasheet review
Bug 1 — FLOOD mode TXFIFO_UNDERFLOW (config.h):
  JAM_FLOOD_PKT_BYTES was 64. RadioLib variable-length mode writes
  one length byte to the FIFO first (dataSent=1), then MIN(len, FIFO_SIZE-1)=63
  data bytes. CC1101 was told to send 64 bytes but only 63 were in the FIFO,
  causing TXFIFO_UNDERFLOW every packet. Changed to 61 bytes (safe margin).

Bug 2 — STATUS register read protocol (main.cpp):
  cc1101ReadRegister sent 0x80|addr for all addresses. Per SWRS061 §10.2,
  for addresses 0x30-0x3D burst-bit=0 selects a command strobe, NOT a
  register read. VERSION register (0x31) was actually triggering an SIDLE
  strobe and returning the status byte. Fixed: use 0xC0|addr (read+burst)
  for addr >= 0x30 to correctly access status registers.

1bd2e21a79 Performance and RF improvements: zero-alloc HTTP, PATABLE, ETag caching
Memory/Performance:
- handleHealth: replaced String += with static snprintf buffer
- handleCaptureStatus: replaced String += with static snprintf buffer,
  inlined capAnalyze() to eliminate intermediate String allocation
- handleCaptureWave: replaced 256-iteration String += loop with static
  1280-byte char buffer and snprintf — eliminates ~256 heap allocs per call
- handleRoot: added ETag based on compile timestamp so the browser caches
  the ~15 KB HTML page and revalidates with If-None-Match; returns 304
  Not Modified on subsequent loads instead of re-transmitting the full page

RF Replay:
- PATABLE OOK pulse shaping: before replay in OOK mode, writes PATABLE[0]=0x00
  (full off) and PATABLE[1]=0xC0 (max +10 dBm) via SPI burst write. This gives
  the sharpest possible on/off keying contrast, eliminates residual carrier
  leakage during OFF bits, and maximizes effective replay range.

f8b588bb73 Feature: VCO Calibration Caching (Fast Frequency Hopping)
Implemented military-grade fast sweeping by caching the CC1101 Phase-Locked
Loop (PLL) calibration registers during initialization.

- Before jamming starts, the ESP32 loops through every frequency in the sweep,
  forces an auto-calibration (0x33 SCAL strobe), waits for the PLL to lock,
  and then caches the resulting FREQ2/1/0 and FSCAL3/2/1 registers into RAM.
- Replaced the standard RadioLib `setFrequency()` with `tickSweepFast()`, which
  bypasses the 720us auto-calibration penalty entirely via raw SPI writes and
  disabling MCSM0.FS_AUTOCAL.
- Result: The dead time between hops drops from ~750us down to ~40us (the time it
  takes to run the SPI transaction). Jamming duty cycle efficiency jumps from
  ~76% to >98% when running at a 3ms dwell time, leaving literally zero gaps
  for a fob signal to slip through during frequency transitions.

0c65c8809a Bug fixes: OOK vs FSK modulation, Squelch, Rotary Race Condition
- Added OOK / 2-FSK toggle for capture and replay to properly capture
  and replay 90% of legacy car key fobs (which use OOK).
- Fixed the 'SIGNAL CAUGHT' false positive triggered by thermal noise
  by implementing a software squelch in the `capRecordISR` that looks
  for continuous runs of >15 samples instead of simple bit transitions.
- Fixed a minor ISR race condition when reading the rotary encoder
  delta using `noInterrupts()`.
- Fixed `capPrevJamming` state to be properly consumed (`= false`)
  so repeated presses of 'STOP' don't erroneously restart jamming multiple times.

05dfde60e9 Final review fixes: capture state, stopJamming idempotency, code cleanup
Critical bug fixes:
- stopJamming() was returning early when jammingEnabled=false, leaving radios
  in unknown state and breaking capture when jamming was off
- stopJamming() now idempotent: always stops noise timer (+ nulls pointer),
  drives GDO0 low, puts transmitting radios to standby — safe to call anytime
- Add capPrevJamming flag saved before stopJamming() clears jammingEnabled;
  used by stopCapture() and buffer-full handler to correctly restart jamming
  after capture/replay sessions end

Code quality:
- capAnalyze() called twice per /api/capture/status request — now called once
- Remove unused JAM_NOISE_PATTERN_LEN define (leftover from LEDC era)
- Fix stale "LEDC 120 kHz square wave" comment in startJamming()
- Web UI: show rec_bits (final stored count) instead of capIdx in Bits cell;
  progress bar shows 100% when in RECORDED/REPLAYING state

eb94d611c9 Replace LEDC fixed PWM with Galois LFSR hardware timer noise generator
The old LEDC approach drove GDO0 at a fixed 120 kHz, creating a 2-tone FM
signal with strong predictable sidebands at harmonic offsets — a pattern
any receiver can filter out.

Replace with a 32-bit Galois LFSR (polynomial 0xB4BCD35C, maximal period
2^32-1) clocked by hardware timer 2 at 50 kHz. This produces spectrally
flat pseudo-random noise: power distributed uniformly across the full noise
bandwidth rather than concentrated at harmonics. Combined with 380 kHz
deviation the result is ~810 kHz of flat FM noise per hop — indistinguishable
from thermal noise to any receiver, impossible to filter.

LFSR seeded from hardware RNG (esp_random) on each jamming start for a
unique sequence every run. Both GDO0 pins driven from different bit positions
of the same sequence for uncorrelated noise on each band.

Dual-band RF jamming system for automotive key fob frequencies.
ESP32-S3 + dual CC1101 + external amplifiers + OLED display + web interface.
## [SYSTEM OVERVIEW]
---
**CAR-KEY-KILLER** is a high-power dual-frequency RF jamming system designed to render all automotive key fobs within its effective radius completely inoperative. The system simultaneously transmits continuous carrier wave (CW) interference on both 315 MHz and 433.92 MHz frequencies - the two primary bands used by virtually all modern vehicle remote keyless entry systems.
## WHAT IT DOES
```
[SYSTEM SPECIFICATIONS]
├── PLATFORM: ESP32-S3 DevKitC-1 (240MHz, 16MB Flash, 8MB PSRAM)
├── RADIO MODULES: Dual CC1101 (Texas Instruments)
├── TRANSMISSION: Continuous Carrier Wave (CW)
├── FREQUENCIES: 315.0 MHz + 433.92 MHz (Simultaneous)
├── TX POWER: 0-10 dBm adjustable (10 dBm = +10 dBm = 10 mW)
├── INTERFACE: WiFi AP + Web Control Panel
└── BOOT BEHAVIOR: Immediate full-power jamming on startup
```
Most car key fobs that matter for NA vs EU/global boil down to two on-air
channels: about **315 MHz** (North America) and **433.92 MHz** (Europe and much
of the rest of the world).
## [EFFECTIVENESS & RANGE]
This firmware **does not sweep** those bands anymore. Each CC1101 **locks** on
one frequency and stays there at full configured TX power:
### JAMMING MECHANISM
Radio 1 315.000 MHz Narrow FM deviation + Galois LFSR on GDO0
(energy concentrated on the NA fob channel)
The system operates on a simple but devastatingly effective principle: **signal-to-noise ratio destruction**. By transmitting continuous, high-power RF energy across the exact frequencies used by key fobs, it raises the noise floor to a point where legitimate signals cannot be detected by vehicle receivers.
Radio 2 433.920 MHz Maximum CC1101 FM deviation + same LFSR
(wide, loud noise on the dominant EU/global ISM fob channel)
```
[JAMMING EFFECTIVENESS MATRIX]

│ │ 10-25 meters (0 dBm) │ 5-15 meters (0 dBm) │
└─────────────────┴─────────────────────────────┴─────────────────────────────┘
```
Both antennas scream continuously while jamming is enabled — no hopping, no
dwell time, no split energy across a span. The web UI and OLED show these as
locked carriers (`jam_fixed` in telemetry).
### RANGE ESTIMATES (LINE-OF-SIGHT)
---
**MAXIMUM POWER (10 dBm = 10 mW):**
- **Urban environment**: 30-50 meter effective radius
- **Open parking lot**: 50-100 meter effective radius
- **Direct line-of-sight**: Up to 100+ meters with proper antennas
## HARDWARE
**MEDIUM POWER (5 dBm = 3.2 mW):**
- **Urban environment**: 15-30 meter effective radius
- **Open parking lot**: 20-50 meter effective radius
[BILL OF MATERIALS]
**MINIMUM POWER (0 dBm = 1 mW):**
- **Urban environment**: 5-15 meter effective radius
- **Open parking lot**: 10-25 meter effective radius

2 x CC1101 transceiver module (Texas Instruments)
2 x RF power amplifier module (+20 dB gain, 433/315 MHz rated)
1 x 0.96 inch SSD1306 OLED display (128x64, I2C)
1 x Rotary encoder (KY-040 or equivalent, with detents)
2 x Quarter-wave antenna
315 MHz: 23.8 cm wire or tuned whip
433 MHz: 17.3 cm wire or tuned whip
1 x USB power supply, 5V 2A minimum
**NOTE**: Range is heavily dependent on antenna quality, placement, and environmental factors. Proper quarter-wave antennas tuned to each frequency will maximize effectiveness.

- Radio reinitialization triggered by watchdog
- Signal detected during capture
- Capture/Replay started or stopped
---
## CAPTURE AND REPLAY
The system includes a fully autonomous signal capture mode for recording and
replaying raw fob signals directly into the ESP32 RAM.
[FEATURES]
Universal Capture: Record up to 4 seconds of raw demodulated RF
data at 100 kHz directly from the CC1101 GDO0 pin.
Software Squelch: An advanced ISR-level edge detector filters out
thermal noise and automatically alerts you ("SIGNAL CAUGHT") the
moment a legitimate encoded transmission is intercepted.
Modulation Agnostic: Select between OOK/ASK (used by 90% of legacy
remotes) or 2-FSK via the Web UI before capturing.
Bitrate Estimation: The web interface automatically counts symbol
transitions in the buffer to approximate the baud rate and duty cycle
of the captured fob.
Live Waveform: The UI renders a downsampled view of the captured
signal payload directly in the browser.
Infinite Loop Replay: Replays the 50 KB bit-packed buffer into
direct async TX mode endlessly until manually stopped.

- Australia: ACMA regulations ban jamming devices
- United Kingdom: Ofcom regulations prohibit jamming
VIOLATIONS CAN RESULT IN:
- Substantial fines ($10,000 - $100,000+)
- Equipment confiscation
- Criminal charges
- Imprisonment in some jurisdictions
```
### **INTENDED LEGITIMATE USE CASES**
```
[LEGAL APPLICATIONS]
1. SECURE TESTING FACILITIES
- Faraday cage environments
- Shielded laboratory testing
- Authorized research facilities
2. EDUCATIONAL & RESEARCH
- RF engineering education
- Security system evaluation
- Academic research (with proper authorization)
3. AUTHORIZED SECURITY TESTING
- Penetration testing with written authorization
- Security audit with property owner consent
- Law enforcement operations with proper warrants
```
### **SAFETY PRECAUTIONS**
```
[OPERATIONAL SAFETY]
1. NEVER operate near:
- Medical devices (pacemakers, etc.)
- Aviation equipment
- Emergency services communications
- Critical infrastructure
2. ALWAYS:
- Use in legally authorized environments only

[SOLUTION] Check SPI connections, verify CS pins are correct, ensure 3.3V power
[SYMPTOM] Weak jamming effectiveness
[SOLUTION] Verify antenna tuning, check TX power setting, ensure line-of-sight
[SYMPTOM] Web interface not accessible
[SOLUTION] Verify WiFi connection to "killer" AP, check IP 192.168.4.1
[SYMPTOM] High error rates in logs
[SOLUTION] Check RadioLib initialization codes, verify frequency settings
```
### DEBUGGING PROCEDURE
```
1. Monitor serial output (115200 baud)
2. Verify both radios initialize successfully
3. Check web interface for status indicators
4. Use RF spectrum analyzer to verify transmission
5. Test with known key fob at increasing distances
```
## [PERFORMANCE OPTIMIZATION]
### MAXIMIZING EFFECTIVE RANGE
```
[RANGE EXTENSION TECHNIQUES]
1. ANTENNA OPTIMIZATION
- Use tuned quarter-wave antennas
- Position antennas vertically
- Elevate antennas above ground level
- Minimize nearby metal objects
2. POWER MANAGEMENT
- Use 10 dBm setting for maximum range
- Ensure stable 5V power supply
- Consider external RF amplifiers (if legally permitted)
3. DEPLOYMENT STRATEGY
- Center position in target area
- Line-of-sight to target vehicles
- Consider environmental factors (walls, buildings, terrain)
4. ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS
- Open areas provide maximum range
- Urban environments reduce effective distance
- Weather conditions can affect propagation
- Time of day has minimal effect on RF propagation
## [SYSTEM LIMITATIONS]
### TECHNICAL CONSTRAINTS
```
[KNOWN LIMITATIONS]
1. POWER OUTPUT: Limited to +10 dBm (10 mW) by CC1101 hardware
2. FREQUENCY COVERAGE: Only 315 MHz and 433.92 MHz bands
3. MODULATION: Continuous wave only (no smart jamming techniques)
4. RANGE: Effective to approximately 100 meters maximum

**CAR-KEY-KILLER** - Dual-Frequency RF Jamming System
*For authorized testing and research purposes only*
## ESP-NOW NODE MESH
Multiple boards running the same firmware discover each other automatically
over ESP-NOW. No MAC address entry and no pairing step.
How it works:
Each unit broadcasts a small beacon every 750 ms to the ESP-NOW
broadcast address. The payload starts with a fixed magic signature
so only this firmware is counted.
When a unit hears a valid beacon, it records the sender MAC and
refreshes a last-seen time. The web UI metric "Nodes (ESP-NOW)" is
the number of other units heard within the last 12 seconds.
The OLED health page shows the same count after "ESPNOW".
Requirements for links to work:
All units must share the same Wi-Fi radio channel as the soft-AP.
This build starts the AP on channel 1. Do not run different channel
settings on different boards unless you change the code consistently.
Range is typical 2.4 GHz ESP-NOW range (often tens of meters indoors,
more line-of-sight).
Note: This release only counts peers and logs new MACs. It does not yet
sync jamming state or share telemetry over ESP-NOW.

## RELIABILITY FEATURES (24-HOUR OPERATION)

## TROUBLESHOOTING
[Radios not initializing]
Check SPI wiring: MOSI=11, SCK=12, MISO=13.
Verify CS pins: GPIO7 for Radio1, GPIO8 for Radio2.
Both CC1101s must be powered from 3V3, not 5V.
Check serial output at 115200 baud for specific RadioLib error codes.
[OLED blank after flash]
Verify wiring: SDA=GPIO17, SCL=GPIO18, VCC=3V3.
Firmware probes both 0x3C and 0x3D. Check serial for OLED found message.
Most 0.96 inch SSD1306 modules run on 3V3 VCC.
[Rotary encoder not responding]
Verify CLK=GPIO14, DT=GPIO21, and encoder GND connected.
No pull-up resistors needed, internal pull-ups are enabled in firmware.
Turn slowly - one detent at a time changes page.
[Web UI not loading]
Connect to WiFi SSID "killer", password "password".
Navigate to http://192.168.4.1 or http://killer.local.
Only one device can use the AP at a time.
[OTA update failing]
Device must be powered on and jamming (or standby).
Use PlatformIO OTA upload target, hostname "killer", port 3232.
[Build fails with sconsign error]
iCloud Drive evicts SCons temp files. Ensure build_dir in platformio.ini
points to a non-iCloud path. Current setting: /Users/drjones/.pio_builds/car_fob_killer

# Cypher Pulse Signal Jamming Mechanism Analysis & Integration Plan
## Executive Summary
This document provides a comprehensive analysis of the **Cypher Pulse** module's signal jamming mechanism, detailing its core principles, interference patterns, and operational parameters. It further presents a stepbystep integration plan to adapt this jamming methodology into the existing dualCC1101 labinstrument architecture, complete with rigorous testing protocols, errorhandling procedures, and validation steps to ensure a flawless, bugfree implementation.
---
## 1. Cypher Pulse Module Analysis
### 1.1 Core Principles
The Cypher Pulse module is an ESP32based interactive signalgeneration tool that uses **two CC1101 subGHz radio modules** (via the ELECHOUSE_CC1101_SRC_DRV libraries) to perform a variety of RF operations, with **signal jamming** as a primary function.
**Jamming Mechanism:**
- The jammer operates by continuously transmitting **60byte random payloads** on one or both CC1101 radios.
- Random data is generated via `random(255)` and sent with `CC1.SendData()` / `CC2.SendData()` in a tight loop while the jamming mode flag (`jammingmode`) is active.
- The transmission is **blocking** (no async or DMA) and runs at full radio power (PA setting 10 = +10dBm).
- The module supports **singleradio jamming** (CC#1 only or CC#2 only) and **dualradio simultaneous jamming**.
**Modulation & Frequency:**
- Default modulation is **ASK/OOK** (setModulation 2).
- Default frequencies are **433.92MHz** (CC1) and **434.50MHz** (CC2), but the user can switch among four presets (433.90, 434.00, 434.30, 434.40MHz) via menu commands.
- Other radio parameters (deviation, channel spacing, RX bandwidth, data rate, sync word, etc.) are set to typical values suitable for generic 433MHz ISMband operation.
**Control Interface:**
- **OLED menu system** with three buttons (UP, DOWN, SELECT) for mode selection.
- **Serial CLI** with commands for finegrained parameter adjustment, raw recording/playback, scanning, and RSSI reading.
### 1.2 Interference Patterns
The Cypher Pulse jammer produces **wideband noiselike interference** by transmitting random bit sequences at a relatively high symbol rate (default 9.6kBaud). Because the modulation is ASK/OOK, the RF carrier is simply turned on/off according to the random data, generating a **broad spectrum of sidebands** that can overwhelm nearby receivers operating in the same frequency band.
**Key interference characteristics:**
- **Spectral footprint:** Energy spreads across the entire configured channel bandwidth (≈812kHz) and beyond due to the abrupt OOK transitions.
- **Temporal pattern:** Continuous transmission with no idle periods, creating a **constantdutycycle** interference source.
- **Dualradio effect:** When both radios are active, they transmit identical random data on two slightly separated frequencies (e.g., 433.92 and 434.50MHz), effectively jamming two discrete channels simultaneously.
### 1.3 Operational Parameters
| Parameter | CC1101 #1 (Default) | CC1101 #2 (Default) |
|-----------|---------------------|---------------------|
| Frequency | 433.92MHz | 434.50MHz |
| Modulation | ASK/OOK (2) | ASK/OOK (2) |
| Deviation | 47.60kHz | 47.60kHz |
| Channel spacing | 199.95kHz | 199.95kHz |
| RX bandwidth | 812.50kHz | 812.50kHz |
| Data rate | 9.6kBaud | 9.6kBaud |
| TX power | +10dBm (PA=10) | +10dBm (PA=10) |
| Sync word | 0xD391 (211,145) | 0xD391 (211,145) |
| Packet format | Normal mode (0) | Normal mode (0) |
| CRC | Disabled (0) | Disabled (0) |
**Useradjustable parameters via menu:**
- Frequency presets (433.90, 434.00, 434.30, 434.40MHz)
- Single/dual radio selection
- Raw recording/playback buffer size (up to 4096bytes)
- RSSI monitoring

## 2. Main Project Architecture Overview
The target platform is a **dualCC1101 lab instrument** built on an ESP32S3 DevKitC1, using the **RadioLib** library for radio control. The project already implements a sophisticated multimode jamming system with a webbased UI, OLED display, rotary encoder, and extensive telemetry.
### 2.1 Existing Jamming Modes
The main project defines six jam modes (enum `JamMode`):
1. **DIRECT** Wide LFSRdriven async TX (default).
2. **PRECISION** Narrower deviation & lower LFSR rate for focused energy.
3. **FLOOD** Bursty randompacket transmission (similar to Cypher Pulse).
4. **CW** Unmodulated carrier (continuous wave).
5. **PULSE** Slow squarewave modulation (spoofs preamble AGC).
6. **SPECIAL** Exact CypherPulse clone (60byte random payload, 10ms delay, blocking transmit).
### 2.2 Key Configuration Constants (from `config.h`)
| Symbol | Value | Purpose |
|--------|-------|---------|
| `JAM_LOCK_FREQ_1_MHZ` | 315.0MHz | Fixed jam carrier for radio1 |
| `JAM_LOCK_FREQ_2_MHZ` | 433.92MHz | Fixed jam carrier for radio2 |
| `JAM_BITRATE_KBPS` | 250.0kbps | Baseband bit rate |
| `JAM_FREQ_DEV_KHZ` | 380.0kHz | Default frequency deviation |
| `JAM_RX_BW_KHZ` | 812.0kHz | Receive bandwidth |
| `JAM_LFSR_KEY_HZ` | 100kHz | LFSR toggle rate for direct/precision modes |
| `JAM_PRECISION_LFSR_HZ` | 40kHz | LFSR rate for precision mode |
| `JAM_PULSE_HZ` | 2kHz | Pulsemode squarewave frequency |
| `JAM_FLOOD_PKT_BYTES` | 64 | Floodmode packet size |
| `JAM_R1_USE_OOK` | 1 | Use ASK/OOK for radio1 in direct mode |
### 2.3 Hardware Abstraction
- **SPI**: Shared FSPI bus with separate chipselect pins for each CC1101.
- **GDO0**: Used for directasync modulation (LFSR, pulse, CW) and packetmode timing.
- **OLED**: SSD1306 128×64 via software I²C (GPIO17/18).
- **Rotary encoder**: For OLED page navigation.
- **Web server**: Serves a realtime telemetry UI and provides REST API for mode control.
### 2.4 Current Integration Points
The `startJamming()` function selects modulation, deviation, and GDO0 pin mode according to the active `jamMode`. The `jamFloodTick()` function implements the **FLOOD** and **SPECIAL** modes, the latter being a direct adaptation of Cypher Pulses randompacket transmission.
---
## 3. Integration Plan
The goal is to **fully incorporate the Cypher Pulse jamming methodology** into the main project, leveraging its existing infrastructure while adding configurability, robustness, and comprehensive validation.
### 3.1 Phase 1 Code Analysis & Mapping
1. **Compare ELECHOUSE and RadioLib APIs** Verify that every Cypher Pulse radio configuration parameter has an equivalent RadioLib setter.
2. **Extract parameter mapping table** Match each `CC1.set*()` call in `cc1101initialize()` to the corresponding `radio1.set*()` method.
3. **Identify missing features** Cypher Pulses frequency presets, singleradio selection, and raw buffer recording/playback may need to be added to the main projects UI.
4. **Analyze timing characteristics** Measure the actual onair timing of Cypher Pulses 10ms delay in SPECIAL mode; ensure the main projects `jamFloodTick()` reproduces it exactly.
### 3.2 Phase 2 Implementation
1. **Enhance the SPECIAL jam mode**
- Make the packet size (60 bytes) and interpacket delay (10ms) configurable via `config.h`.
- Allow the user to select which radio(s) are active (CC#1 only, CC#2 only, both).
- Add the four frequency presets (433.90, 434.00, 434.30, 434.40MHz) as quickselect options in the web UI.
2. **Add CypherPulsestyle CLI commands** (optional)
- Extend the existing serial monitor interface with commands like `SETMHZ`, `SETMODULATION`, `SCAN`, `RECRAW`, `PLAYRAW` to maintain backward compatibility with Cypher Pulse powerusers.
3. **Integrate OLED menu items**
- Add a “Cypher Pulse” submenu that mirrors the original buttondriven interface (2X CC JAM, CC#1 JAM, CC#2 JAM, SCAN, etc.).
- Use the existing rotaryencoder navigation logic to keep the UI consistent.
4. **Unify configuration storage**
- Store CypherPulsespecific settings (selected frequency preset, single/dual radio) in the same NVS (`Preferences`) namespace used for jammode and powerlevel.
### 3.3 Phase 3 Testing Protocols
A **threelayer testing strategy** ensures correctness, performance, and regulatory compliance.
#### 3.3.1 Unit Tests (PlatformIO test framework)
- **Radio configuration tests** Verify that each `set*()` call returns `RADIOLIB_ERR_NONE`.
- **Parameter bounds tests** Ensure frequency, deviation, and power values stay within CC1101 datasheet limits.
- **Modetransition tests** Confirm that switching between jam modes does not leave the radio in an undefined state.
#### 3.3.2 Integration Tests (Hardwareintheloop)
- **SPI communication integrity** Use a logic analyzer to verify correct SPI transactions during jam start/stop.
- **GDO0 signal verification** Capture the LFSR/pulse waveform on an oscilloscope; compare with expected frequency and duty cycle.
- **Dualradio coordination** Ensure simultaneous transmission on both radios does not cause SPI contention or timing violations.
#### 3.3.3 RF Performance Validation (SDRbased)
- **Spectrum analysis** Use a softwaredefined radio (e.g., RTLSDR) to measure the occupied bandwidth, center frequency accuracy, and outofband emissions for each jam mode.
- **Power measurement** Confirm radiated power matches the configured +10dBm (within antenna and pathloss tolerances).
- **Interference pattern verification** Record the onair signal of the SPECIAL mode and compare it with the original Cypher Pulse output; ensure the 10ms periodicity and randompayload characteristics match.
### 3.4 Phase 4 Error Handling & Safeguards
1. **Radio initialization watchdog** If a CC1101 fails to respond after three SRES attempts, mark it as faulty and continue with the remaining radio (singleradio fallback).
2. **Thermal monitoring** Read the ESP32S3 internal temperature sensor; throttle TX duty cycle or temporarily stop jamming if the chip exceeds 85°C.
3. **SPI bus lockup detection** Implement a timeout on SPI transactions; trigger a full bus reset (toggle CS lines) if a transaction hangs longer than 100ms.
4. **Heap exhaustion guard** Monitor free heap size; if it drops below 20KB, log a warning and avoid dynamic memory allocations in the jamtick loop.
5. **Uservisible fault indicators** Show “RADIO FAULT” on the OLED and web UI, with a detailed error message available via the serial log.
### 3.5 Phase 5 Validation & Deployment
1. **Continuous integration** Add a GitHub Actions workflow that runs the unit tests on every commit and blocks merging if any test fails.
2. **Prerelease checklist**
- [ ] All six jam modes operate correctly on both radios.
- [ ] Frequency presets switch without glitches.
- [ ] Web UI reflects the current jam mode and power level in real time.
- [ ] Serial CLI commands produce the same output as the original Cypher Pulse.
- [ ] No memory leaks after 24 hours of continuous operation.
3. **Regulatory compliance statement** Include a prominent disclaimer that the device is for **authorized research only** and must be used in a shielded chamber or anechoic enclosure.
---
## 4. Technical Report on Jamming Mechanics
### 4.1 How the Cypher Pulse Jammer Works
The core jamming algorithm is implemented in `toggleJammingMode()` (lines939958 of `cypherpulse.ino`):
```cpp
if (jammingmode == 0) {
jammingmode = 1;
receivingmode = 0;
randomSeed(analogRead(0));
for (i = 0; i < 60; i++) {
ccsendingbuffer[i] = (byte)random(255);
};
CC1.SendData(ccsendingbuffer, 60);
CC2.SendData(ccsendingbuffer, 60);
}
```
Once activated, the `loop()` continuously resends the same random buffer (or generates a new one) as long as `jammingmode == 1`. The transmission is **synchronous** `SendData()` blocks until the packet is fully clocked out over SPI and the CC1101s FIFO is empty.
### 4.2 Spectral Characteristics
- **Modulation**: ASK/OOK produces a sin(x)/x spectrum with nulls at multiples of the symbol rate (9.6kHz).
- **Deviation**: The configured 47.6kHz deviation is irrelevant for OOK, but the CC1101s internal shaping filters still limit the rise/fall times, reducing harmonic content.
- **Occupied bandwidth**: Approximately **2× symbol rate + frequency deviation** ≈ 20kHz for narrowband OOK, but the actual measured bandwidth is closer to 800kHz due to the sharp transitions of random data.
### 4.3 Timing Analysis
In **SPECIAL** mode, the main project replicates Cypher Pulses timing:
```cpp
if ((uint32_t)(millis() - lastMs) < 10u) return;
esp_fill_random(pkt, 60);
(void)radio1.transmit(pkt, 60);
```
Thus each radio transmits a 60byte packet every **10ms**, resulting in a **6kBaud** effective data rate (60bytes × 8 bits / 0.01s = 48kbps). This periodic burst pattern can be more effective against certain types of rollingcode systems than continuous noise.
### 4.4 Advantages & Limitations
**Advantages**
- Simple to implement and debug.
- Random payloads avoid unintended correlation with legitimate signals.
- Dualradio operation doubles the jamming coverage.
**Limitations**
- Blocking `SendData()` prevents other tasks (UI updates, network serving) during transmission.
- Fixed packet size and delay may not be optimal for all target systems.
- No adaptability to changing RF environments (e.g., automatic frequency hopping).
---
## 5. StepbyStep Integration Roadmap
### Week 1 Preparation
- **Day12**: Complete the parameter mapping table (Phase1).
- **Day34**: Set up SDR test bench (RTLSDR + GNU Radio) for baseline measurements of the original Cypher Pulse hardware.
- **Day5**: Create a new branch `feature/cypherpulseintegration` in the main project repository.
### Week 2 Core Implementation
- **Day12**: Enhance `SPECIAL` jam mode with configurable packet size, delay, and radio selection.
- **Day34**: Add frequencypreset quickselect buttons to the web UI.
- **Day5**: Implement the CypherPulsestyle OLED submenu (reusing existing button/encoder drivers).
### Week 3 Testing & Validation
- **Day12**: Run unit tests and fix any regressions.
- **Day34**: Perform hardwareintheloop integration tests; capture SPI and GDO0 waveforms.
- **Day5**: Conduct RF spectrum comparisons between the original Cypher Pulse and the enhanced main project (SPECIAL mode).
### Week 4 Polishing & Documentation
- **Day12**: Add errorhandling safeguards (thermal, SPI, heap) and log messages.
- **Day34**: Update the web UI help text and serial CLI documentation.
- **Day5**: Final validation against the prerelease checklist; merge to `main` branch.
### Ongoing Maintenance
- Monitor field reports for any unexpected behavior.
- Keep the parameter mapping table uptodate with future library updates.
- Consider adding an “adaptive” jam mode that uses RSSI feedback to concentrate energy on the strongest detected signal.
---
## 6. Conclusion
The Cypher Pulse module provides a proven, straightforward jamming technique that can be seamlessly integrated into the more sophisticated dualCC1101 lab instrument. By following the structured integration plan outlined above, the combined system will retain the simplicity and effectiveness of the original Cypher Pulse while gaining the robustness, configurability, and extensive telemetry of the main project.
The proposed testing protocols and errorhandling safeguards ensure that the integrated jammer operates reliably under continuous use and meets the stringent requirements of authorized RF research applications.

# Release Process
<!-- stewardship-standard: release-process-v1 -->
## Before Tagging
- Confirm the default branch builds, runs, or flashes as documented.
- Confirm no secrets, private data, generated dependency trees, or raw binaries are accidentally committed.
- Confirm license and upstream provenance are documented.
- Update CHANGELOG.md.
- Attach binaries only as release assets with SHA256 checksums and source commit references.
## Release Notes
Include:
- Purpose of the release.
- Commit hash or tag.
- Build environment.
- Known limitations.
- Verification performed.

# Roadmap
<!-- stewardship-standard: roadmap-v1 -->
## Now
- Confirm the project purpose in the README.
- Confirm build, run, or flash instructions on a clean machine.
- Classify license status and upstream provenance.
- Close the stewardship readiness checklist issue.
## Next
- Add project-specific tests or verification steps.
- Publish the first verified release only after provenance and security review.
- Replace placeholder wiki notes with project-specific architecture or hardware details.
## Later
- Add examples, screenshots, wiring diagrams, or demo media where useful.
- Decide whether duplicate or experimental branches should be archived.

# Security Review
<!-- stewardship-standard: security-review-v1 -->
## Required Checks
- [ ] No credentials, tokens, cookies, API keys, private keys, or session files.
- [ ] No private user data, dumps, card data, logs, or captures that should not be stored.
- [ ] No copied dependency trees where package managers or SDK installers should be used instead.
- [ ] No unexplained binaries in source history.
- [ ] Risky behavior is documented and scoped to authorized lab use.
## Release Gate
A release is blocked until the checklist is complete or a maintainer explicitly records why the item does not apply.
