HAROGIC R1000 Series
The HAROGIC R1000 Series integrates a single-channel, high-performance superheterodyne RF receiver and Raspberry Pi 5 in a compact enclosure to create an embedded RF receiver platform. Covering 10 MHz to 6 / 9 / 20 / 40 GHz, it provides 50 MHz real-time bandwidth as standard, expandable to 100 MHz. A unified API allows the device to serve as a high-quality IQ data source for a host computer or run RF signal acquisition, identification, processing, and control applications locally. It is ideal for distributed field deployment, RF system integration, distributed monitoring, and edge RF systems.

Advanced RF Performance
The R1000 series adopts a high‑performance superheterodyne architecture, equipped with up to 14 high-performance preselector filter bands. A single unit supports ultra‑wide frequency coverage from 10 MHz up to 40 GHz (covering X, Ku, Ka, FR2 and FR3 bands). It delivers excellent noise performance, wide dynamic range, interference resilience, fast signal analysis and embedded deployment readiness, while lowering overall system cost without compromising receiving performance.
Compact Design and Easy Deployment
Featuring a highly compact design, the R1000 series can be readily integrated into diverse systems. The built-in computing platform is Raspberry Pi 5 (quad‑core Cortex‑A76 @2.4 GHz, 4 GB memory, 32 GB flash storage), supporting standalone operation without host PC. It preserves full RF performance while greatly reducing deployment complexity, ideal for space‑constrained and cost‑sensitive applications.
Powerful API and Comprehensive Ecosystem
The R1000 series implements unified API interfaces, enabling seamless hardware migration without source‑code modification. Supported development environments include C/C++, C#, Python, MATLAB, Qt, LabVIEW and GNU Radio. Both Windows and Linux operating systems are supported.
Typical Applications
Spectrum Observation and Monitoring
The R1000 series provides high-performance signal reception for weak-signal spectrum observation, real-time spectrum analysis, memory scanning, and analog demodulation. Its compact form factor and onboard edge computing capabilities simplify field deployment for spectrum monitoring applications.
Distributed Signal Acquisition and Processing
Built upon the integrated Raspberry‑Pi compute node, the unit can be networked over Gigabit Ethernet to establish distributed RF signal acquisition nodes. Each node provides substantial local compute resources for in‑node deep signal processing.
Education and Radio Enthusiasts
Supplied with SDK built upon unified HTRA‑API, compatible with open‑source tools such as GNU Radio. It accelerates hands‑on signal‑reception experiments and algorithm validation for academic and hobbyist users.
