### Tuner Channelizer
|
||||
SDR tuners capture a broad swath of the frequency spectrum containing multiple radio channels. sdrtrunk
|
||||
employs a channelizer to extract each radio channel for decoding. sdrtrunk provides two channelizers to choose from.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
* **Heterdyne** - the heterdyne channelizer applies a mixing frequency to mix the channel of interest
|
||||
down to the zero frequency and then it uses a sequence of half-band decimation filters to incrementally
|
||||
divide the sample rate and bandwidth in half. These half-band decimation filters are computationally
|
||||
efficient. However, the filters do not provide a sharp cutoff at the channel band edges and this can sometimes
|
||||
allow bleedover from strong adjacent channels. Use this channelizer if you are only decoding a few channels to
|
||||
reduce the processing workload.
|
||||
* **Polyphase** - the polyphase channelizer uses a single filter and an FFT to break the entire bandwidth of the SDR
|
||||
into equal bandwidth channels. This channelizer is more efficient than the heterodyne channelizer when you are decoding
|
||||
three or more channels at the same time. This is the default channelizer.
