This tracer extracts the content of a buffer field of an event
that was previously saved using the tracer 'record'.
For example, to extract the channel estimation done in
frame 924 and subframe 2 as saved in the file input_record.raw
and to store it in the file output.raw, do:
./extract -d ../T_messages.txt -o output.raw input_record.raw ENB_PHY_UL_CHANNEL_ESTIMATE chest_t -f frame 924 -f subframe 2
This tracer takes the traces ENB_MAC_UE_DL_PDU_WITH_DATA
and ENB_MAC_UE_UL_PDU_WITH_DATA from a trace file
(as generated by the "record" tracer) and sends them
in UDP packets correctly formatted for wireshark to
dissect them.
One unresolved problem I face with my version of
wireshark (1.10.6) is that I don't get the frame number,
only subframe. See in the code to change the behavior
if you use a more recent version of wireshark.
You need to properly configure wireshark for it to work.
