Binary Packet Inspector C

C-based binary packet inspector for embedded telemetry and mission diagnostics.

This project parses binary-like telemetry frames, validates packet headers, checks CRC values, classifies packet types, detects abnormal frames, and generates session-level diagnostic summaries.

Packet Format

SYNC,TYPE,LENGTH,PAYLOAD,CRC

Example:

AA55,01,04,120A33FF,9321
AA55,02,08,01020304AABBCCDD,7142
Goals
Inspect binary-style telemetry packet records
Validate sync word and payload length
Classify packet types
Detect malformed packets
Detect CRC mismatch
Generate diagnostic session report
