The protocol I'm familiar with is HPSDR protocol 1, used by a?number of SDRs. It's documented??and .?One advantage is that it's well-supported by SDR software packages, so you could concentrate on the transceiver side implementation.

Hi Rob,
The RTL-2832 is really a one of a kind - a very low-cost IC designed as
a COFDM demodulator of digital TV that happens to have the ability to
send raw ADC samples which enable it to function as an SDR.?? Its USB
interface includes commands to control a silicon tuner IC? via an
internal I2C repeater.
Quisk and other SDR software uses the libraries created by Osmocom many
years ago: ??? These are
specific to the RTL-2832 and wouldn't do you any good I'm afraid.?? The
rest of the project you linked should be useful as a basis for the
digital mode transmit side, I'd think, but I'm not familiar with them.
