We would like to use batman with a custom radio and are trying to figure out what part of the source code we may need to modify to allow batman to work with a custom radio. Custom radio means that the radio is not a commercial radio, such as wi-fi or Bluetooth.
batman-adv (especially with the B.A.T.M.A.N. IV algo) only requires that the device itself can transport ethernet frames (with proper unicast and broadcast behavior). If you need something else then you either need a virtual interface which does the translation from $whatever to ethernet (and back) - or you need to reimplement the B.A.T.M.A.N. IV/V algorithms yourself.
Kind regards, Sven
