Add documentation for Foxconn RU in ORAN_FHI7.2_Tutorial.md
- This addition is based on past tests, iperf3 UDP throughput was 520Mbps DL and 40Mbps UL. - Throughput degrades when using OAI L1 with tags beyond `2024.w30`. - This RU is being CI tested only in the Aerial pipeline, not with OAI L1. - The document will be updated once the issue is identified and fixed.

**Version v3.1.15q.551_rc10**
|

The OAI configuration file [`gnb.sa.band78.273prb.fhi72.4X4-foxconn.conf`](../targets/PROJECTS/GENERIC-NR-5GC/CONF/gnb.sa.band78.273prb.fhi72.4X4-foxconn.conf) corresponds to:
|
||||||
|
- TDD pattern `DDDSU`, 2.5ms
|
||||||
|
- Bandwidth 100MHz
|
||||||
|
- MTU 8000

#### RU configuration
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After switching on or rebooting the RU, the `/home/root/test/init_rrh_config_enable_cuplane` script should be run.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The RU configuration file is located in `/home/root/test/RRHconfig_xran.xml`. The required modifications:
|
||||||
|
1. `RRH_DST_MAC_ADDR`
|
||||||
|
2. `RRH_SRC_MAC_ADDR`
|
||||||
|
3. `RRH_EAXC_ID_TYPE1`
|
||||||
|
4. `RRH_EAXC_ID_TYPE3`
|
||||||
|
5. `RRH_CMPR_HDR_PRESENT` -> `0`
|
||||||
|
6. `RRH_C_PLANE_VLAN_TAG`
|
||||||
|
7. `RRH_U_PLANE_VLAN_TAG`
|
||||||
|
8. `RRH_LO_FREQUENCY_KHZ` -> `3750000, 0`
|
||||||
|
9. `RRH_DISABLE_USING_CAL_TABLES` -> `YES`
|
||||||
|
10. `RRH_TX_ATTENUATION` -> must be larger than 10dB
|
||||||
|
11. `RRH_RX_ATTENUATION` -> must be lower than 30dB
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
RU must be rebooted so the changes apply.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Note**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The RU was tested with the `2024.w30` tag of OAI.
|
||||||
|
- The measured throughput was **520 Mbps DL** and **40 Mbps UL**.
|
||||||
|
- With newer OAI versions, throughput degrades. This issue is currently under investigation.
