• Packet software (ACARS)

    I would like to develop software that receives packets from the computer soundcard and decodes them. I am specifically interested in ACARS
    packets. I know there are may programs out there, free and commercial
    that does it. But I am interested in it simply from the point of view of working on a challenging task.

    I have already taken care of the part of retrieving bytes of information
    from the coundcard buffer. The question is now about the processing of
    this buffer to:

    (1) Check if there's any meaningful information in it
    (2) Followed by building up the packet information from the buffer and decoding it.

    I will appreciate any help/pointers from anyone who has done this or
    point me to resources where I can obtain more information.

    Thanks,

    Jatin
