# 5G NR
<<<<<<< HEAD
=======
As of February 2020, all 5G NR development is part of the develop branch (the branch develop-nr is no longer maintained). This also means that all new development will be merged into there once it passes all the CI.
## NSA setup with COTS UE
This setup requires an EPC, an OAI eNB and gNB, and a COTS Phone. A dedicated page describe the setup can be found [here](https://gitlab.eurecom.fr/oai/openairinterface5g/wikis/home/gNB-COTS-UE-testing).
### Launch gNB
```bash sudo ./nr-softmodem -O ../../../targets/PROJECTS/GENERIC-LTE-EPC/CONF/gnb.band78.tm1.106PRB.usrpn300.conf```
### Launch eNB
```bash sudo ./lte-softmodem -O ../../../targets/PROJECTS/GENERIC-LTE-EPC/CONF/enb.band7.tm1.50PRB.usrpb210.conf```
## phy-test setup with OAI UE
The OAI UE can also be used in front of a OAI gNB without the support of eNB or EPC. In this case both gNB and eNB need to be run with the --phy-test flag. At the gNB this flag does the following
- it reads the RRC configuration from the configuration file
- it encodes the RRCConfiguration and the RBconfig message and stores them in the binary files rbconfig.raw and reconfig.raw
- the MAC uses a pre-configured allocation of PDSCH and PUSCH with randomly generated payload
At the UE the --phy-test flag will
- read the binary files rbconfig.raw and reconfig.raw from the current directory (a different directory can be specified with the flag --rrc_config_path) and process them.
### Launch gNB
```bash sudo ./nr-softmodem -O ../../../targets/PROJECTS/GENERIC-LTE-EPC/CONF/gnb.band78.tm1.106PRB.usrpn300.conf --phy-test```
### Launch UE in another window
```bash sudo ./nr-uesoftmodem --phy-test [--rrc_config_path ../../../ci-scripts/rrc-files]```
Some other useful paramters of the UE are
- --ue-fo-compensation: enables the frequency offset compenstation at the UE. This is useful when running over the air and/or without an external clock/time source
- --usrp-args: this is the equivalend paramter of sdr_addrs field in the gNB config file and can be used to identify the USRP and set some basic paramters (like the clock source)
- --clock-source: sets the clock-source (internal or external).
- --time-source: sets the time-source (internal or external).
## noS1 setup with OAI UE
Instead of randomly generated payload, in the phy-test mode we can also inject/receive user-plane traffic over a TUN interface. This is the so-called noS1 mode.
This setup is described in the [rfsimulator page](../targets/ARCH/rfsimulator/README.md#5g-case). In theory this should also work with the real hardware target although this has yet to be tested.
## do-ra setup with OAI
The do-ra flag is used to ran the NR Random Access procedures in contention-free mode. Currently OAI implements the RACH process from Msg1 to Msg3.
In order to run the RA, the following flag is needed for both the gNB and the UE:
`--do-ra`
### Run OAI in do-ra mode
From the `cmake_targets/ran_build/build` folder:
gNB on machine 1:
`sudo ./nr-softmodem -O ../../../targets/PROJECTS/GENERIC-LTE-EPC/CONF/gnb.band78.tm1.106PRB.usrpn300.conf --do-ra`
UE on machine 2:
`sudo ./nr-uesoftmodem --do-ra`
With the RF simulator (on the same machine):
`sudo RFSIMULATOR=gnb ./nr-softmodem -O ../../../targets/PROJECTS/GENERIC-LTE-EPC/CONF/gnb.band78.tm1.106PRB.usrpn300.conf --do-ra --rfsim --parallel-config PARALLEL_SINGLE_THREAD`
`sudo RFSIMULATOR=127.0.0.1 ./nr-uesoftmodem --do-ra --rfsim --parallel-config PARALLEL_SINGLE_THREAD`
## IF setup with OAI
The -C and -CO flags can be used together at UE side to set custom downlink and uplink FR1 intermediate frequencies for the IF equipment.
In order to run this setup, the following flags are needed at the UE side:
`-C`
`--CO`
and the following parameters must be configured in the RUs section of the gNB configuration file:
`if_freq`
`if_offset`
### Run OAI with custom DL/UL intermediate frequencies
The following example uses DL frequency 2169.080 MHz and UL frequency offset -400 MHz, with a configuration file for band 66 at gNB side.
From the `cmake_targets/ran_build/build` folder:
gNB on machine 1:
`sudo ./nr-softmodem -O ../../../targets/PROJECTS/GENERIC-LTE-EPC/CONF/gnb.band66.tm1.106PRB.usrpx300.conf`
UE on machine 2:
`sudo ./nr-uesoftmodem -C 2169080000 --CO -400000000`
