The one in lte-enb.c disrupts the realtime. Using a B200mini with
20MHz bandwidth leads to the UE unable to connect for it seesms like
the UL and DL are not properly time synched because of this sleep
of one second that happens after the USRP streaming has started.
We see some random access attempts but the decoded preamble is
wrong.
This may be dependant on the setup. I had sporadic errors with
a B210, where sometimes the UE could connect and sometimes not.
'_' is not a valid character.
S1AP specs say:
ENBname ::= PrintableString (SIZE (1..150,...))
And X.680 (08/2015) 41.4 table 10 lists the valid characters for
PrintableString. '_' is not there. We replace by '-' which is there.
Connection of eNB to ppenair-cn has not been tested. There is no reason
why it would fail.
- add function free_td() -> complements init_td() [seems to not be used, added
for completeness]
- add function free_td8() -> undoes init_td8() [free memory of 8-bit LLR Turbo
decoder]
- add function free_td16() -> undoes init_td16() [free memory of 16-bit LLR
Turbo decoder]
- change function free_tdavx216() -> undoes init_tdavx216() [free memory of
16-bit LLR Turbo decoder, AVX2 version]
- add free_lte_top() -> frees memory allocated by init_lte_top()
- change free_ul_ref_sigs() to set freed pointers to NULL
- add method free_transport() -> frees memory of ULSCH/DLSCH transport channels
- use the above functions when stopping/restarting the lte-softmodem
Through configuration, the lte-softmodem can be halted to await a
reconfiguration from the lte-softmodem. A mutex and condition variable are used
to implement this.
Furthermore, the dependance of lte-softmodem.c on FlexRAN has been reduced to
one include and the flexran_agent_start() call.
- add set_function_spec_param() which configures RU_t instance depending on its
function(al split)
- export more functions like kill_RU_proc() so that they can be reused by
restart functionality
Try to merge feature-68-enb-agent into develop
develop should be fast-forwarded later to this branch to complete the merge
This code does not compile yet. Among other things:
- the scheduler structure needs to be reworked for FlexRAN
- the config is structured differently. The files enb_config.{c,h} from develop
have been copied in here, the files with merge annotations are in
enb_config.{c,h}.before_merge
- the restart needs to be restructured, since the PHY vars data structure lives
in RC now
