Raspberry-Pi DVB transmitter: The benefits of open-source hardware

Is this Raspberry-Pi-based device the world's smallest DVB (Digital Video
Broadcasting) transmitter?

I was first alerted to the benefits of open-source some years ago while
talking to a couple of very experienced engineers. These guys, who worked
for a multi-billion-dollar company with a global footprint, had been asked
by their manager to complete a project in a ridiculously short time frame.

They concluded that their only hope was to use open-source, which was an
unusual decision for a company of that size and a bit of a culture shock.
Open-source software has a long pedigree, of course, but most companies do
not open up their hardware designs.

Lime Microsystems is one company that evangelizes an open-source philosophy
and provides full details of its wireless chips. As a result, the
open-source community has embraced the software defined radio (SDR) boards
from Lime and is creating some exciting applications, which greatly extend
the functionality of the device through the use of a natively enabled app
store.

This digital TV transmitter, which is based on a combination of a LimeSDR
Mini and a Raspberry Pi Zero, provides a perfect example.
