Getting Started: Windows

There are two ways to install bladeRF for Windows: using a pre-built, signed installer executable, or building libbladeRF and its associated tools from source.

Using an Installer

The installer includes libbladeRF, the bladeRF-cli utility, firmware and FPGA images, and signed drivers for communicating with the hardware. If you have MATLAB installed, it will also install the necessary bindings and prepare them for use with MATLAB.
