Android Question read Wifi packets

[madru]

Hi guys,

do we have people with fundamental Wifi and Android knowledge here in the forum?

I like to write monitoring software in B4A to read the upcoming Remote ID of a drone.

The source data (as I don't have a Drone with this feature) is coming from this Python script by (for) the French police. I am wondering now if it is possible to write a receiver in B4A. To be honest I am not even sure if this is possible in Android.

If somebody has an idea if and how it can be done in B4A I would be grateful ?

I have attached a pcap of the generated packet

in short:

Unless the drone connects to your ServerSocket (or vice versa) you cannot read any communication data.
