There’s generally no need to build GNU Radio from source code unless you want to modify GNU Radio rather than just using it. The recommended way to install GNU Radio on most platforms is using already compiled binary packages. Binary installation should be sufficient for most users, and certainly for anyone who is new to GNU Radio. However, if you have special requirements, or a binary package is not available for your system, you may need to install GNU Radio from source.
In short: on all modern Ubuntu versions use:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnuradio/gnuradio-releases sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install gnuradio
See our PPA page for more details.
The rest of this page describes dependencies for building GNU Radio from source code.

Install Dependencies [ edit ]
The following commands will install all the required dependencies. Before running them, you should ensure that the «Main» and «Universe» repositories are enabled in «Software Sources».
After installing dependencies you can continue with installing GR from source.
Focal Fossa (20.04) through Kinetic Kudu (22.10) [ edit ]
GNU Radio version 3.8.x with Python 3 support:
sudo apt install git cmake g++ libboost-all-dev libgmp-dev swig python3-numpy \ python3-mako python3-sphinx python3-lxml doxygen libfftw3-dev \ libsdl1.2-dev libgsl-dev libqwt-qt5-dev libqt5opengl5-dev python3-pyqt5 \ liblog4cpp5-dev libzmq3-dev python3-yaml python3-click python3-click-plugins \ python3-zmq python3-scipy python3-gi python3-gi-cairo gir1.2-gtk-3.0 \ libcodec2-dev libgsm1-dev libusb-1.0-0 libusb-1.0-0-dev libudev-dev
GNU Radio version 3.9.x in addition to above requires:
sudo apt install pybind11-dev python3-matplotlib libsndfile1-dev \ python3-pip libsoapysdr-dev soapysdr-tools pip install pygccxml pip install pyqtgraph
GNU Radio version 3.10.x and the ‘main’ branch in addition to above require:
sudo apt install libiio-dev libad9361-dev libspdlog-dev python3-packaging python3-jsonschema
Note: Since GNU Radio 3.9.x swig has been replaced with pybind11 and can be removed:
Bionic Beaver (18.04) through Eoan Ermine (19.10) [ edit ]
GNU Radio version 3.8.x with Python 3 support:
sudo apt install git cmake g++ libboost-all-dev libgmp-dev swig python3-numpy \ python3-mako python3-sphinx python3-lxml doxygen libfftw3-dev \ libsdl1.2-dev libgsl-dev libqwt-qt5-dev libqt5opengl5-dev python3-pyqt5 \ liblog4cpp5-dev libzmq3-dev python3-yaml python3-click python3-click-plugins \ python3-zmq python3-scipy
sudo apt install cmake git g++ libboost-all-dev python-dev python-mako \ python-numpy python-wxgtk3.0 python-sphinx python-cheetah swig libzmq3-dev \ libfftw3-dev libgsl-dev libcppunit-dev doxygen libcomedi-dev libqt4-opengl-dev \ python-qt4 libqwt-dev libsdl1.2-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev python-gtk2 python-lxml \ pkg-config python-sip-dev
Note: GNU Radio 3.9 and up will build from source on Ubuntu 18 only if pybind11 is installed from source as well. Also, pybind11 packages are on the gnuradio-master PPA, so another option is to install pybind from the GR PPA then build gnuradio from source. GNU Radio 3.9 additionally requires:
sudo apt install python3-matplotlib libsndfile1-dev
Older Ubuntu Distros [ edit ]
For older versions of Ubuntu see Old Ubuntu Deps
Ubuntu Derivative Distros [ edit ]
- Mint 19.2 is based on Ubuntu 18.04. Mint 19.2 Cinnamon desktop installs gnome-terminal which may have to be uninstalled for non-gui flowgraphs to run properly. Mint 19.2 Mate does not install gnome-terminal by default.

README.md
GNU Radio is a free & open-source software development toolkit that provides signal processing blocks to implement software radios. It can be used with readily-available, low-cost external RF hardware to create software-defined radios, or without hardware in a simulation-like environment. It is widely used in hobbyist, academic, and commercial environments to support both wireless communications research and real-world radio systems.
Please visit the GNU Radio website at https://www.gnuradio.org/ and the wiki at https://wiki.gnuradio.org/. Bugs and feature requests are tracked on GitHub’s Issue Tracker. If you have questions about GNU Radio, please search the discuss-gnuradio mailing list archive, as many questions have already been asked and answered. Please also subscribe to the mailing list and post your new questions there.
The recommended way to install GNU Radio on most platforms is using available binary package distributions.
The following command is for Debian, Ubuntu, and derivatives. Consult your distribution information to obtain the version of GNU Radio which is included.
sudo apt install gnuradio
For other operating systems and versions, see Quick Start
For Ubuntu, the latest builds (both released and pulled from master branch) are maintained as PPAs (Personal Package Archives) on launchpad.net. Be sure to uninstall any previously installed versions of gnuradio first. See UnInstallGR.
Other Installation Methods
Platform-specific guides and Cross-platform guides are described in Other Installation Methods.
Complete instructions for building GNU Radio from source code are detailed in Installing From Source.
We are no longer recommending PyBOMBS to install modern versions of GNU Radio.
Some files have been changed many times throughout the years. Copyright notices at the top of source files list which years changes have been made. For some files, changes have occurred in many consecutive years. These files may often have the format of a year range (e.g., «2006 — 2011»), which indicates that these files have had copyrightable changes made during each year in the range, inclusive.

How to Install GNURadio on Kali Linux
GNURadio is a project for developing software radio projects. This framework provides most signal processing blocks and all types of telecommunication modulations for software radio users and enthusiasts. This article will explain How to Install GNURadio on Kali Linux. If you want to purchase a Linux VPS server, check out the packages offered on the Eldernode website.
Tutorial Install GNUradio on Kali Linux
What is GNURadio?
GNURadio is an open-source and free software development toolkit that provides signal processing blocks for implementing software-defined radios. It can be used to write programs, receive data from a digital stream, transfer data to a digital stream, and then use hardware to transmit that digital stream. This framework has filters, channel codes, sync elements, equalizers, demodulators, encoders, decoders, and many other blocks that are commonly used in radio systems.
GNURadio supports development in Python and C++ and offers a graphical design approach. It is using in academic, hobbyist, and commercial environments to support both wireless communications research and real-world radio systems.
