1. Previous SW configuration for different RRC version relies on whether macro Rel10,
Rel14 defined or not by checking #ifdef Rel14 or #if defined(Rel10) || defined(R14).
Whenever there is a newer RRC version, e.g. Rel15, it will be very a tedious and
error-prone job to add defined(Rel15) in every place.
2. Some RRC messages are defined in release 13 instead of release 14, NB-IoT
feature is one of such example. Our code shall reflect this fact instead of using
an afterward version number in software configuration.
3. Some RRC messages or some fields of certain RRC messages are added in the middle
a release, e.g. SystemInformationBlockType1_v1310_IEs_t defined in RRC 13.1.0
and RRC 9.2.0 made some changes to SIB12 and SIB13 so we have sib12_v920 and
sib13_v920 fields in SIB12 and SIB13's struct.
We need a finer grain of control when using ASN1 from different RRC version.
4. S1AP also has this problem that it use UPDATE_RELEASE_9 and UPDATE_RELEASE_10 to
differentiate between various S1AP version.
This commit propose using MAKE_VERSION(x,y,z) to designate the version number and
modify current conditional compilation accordingly.
Note: 2018/04/16, Modified based on Cedric's comment.
The problem that may happen is that when the UE does not transmit
on PUCCH (for whatever reason) we may get no signal at all, and
thus compute a very low CQI. Later on we may ask the UE to transmit
louder which may lead to saturation and more problems.
The solution is simple: don't care about CQI in case of DTX
(and NACK also, as done for PUSCH).
Only FDD case done.
For TDD it seems that:
- nfapi structures are not correct. See nfapi_harq_indication_tdd_rel13_t
in nfapi/open-nFAPI/nfapi/public_inc/nfapi_interface.h, all the cases
(bundling, multiplex, ...) use nfapi_harq_indication_tdd_harq_data_t
- the function extract_harq does not handle TDD
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
This commit fixes issues introduced by the previous commit.
Summary of work:
- cleanup:
- fix LOG_XX to be less verbose
- fix cmake_targets/CMakeLists.txt
- fix oaienv
- remove dead code
- bug fixes:
- in openair1/SCHED/fapi_l1.c we had:
eNB->pdcch_vars[subframe&1].num_dci = number_dci;
should be:
eNB->pdcch_vars[subframe&1].num_dci = 0;
This bug let the PHY send more DCIs than what should have been
sent because num_dci is incremented later on in the code.
This fix may be a problem for fapi mode, to be checked.
- add new T VCD traces
- revert openair1/PHY/TOOLS/file_output.c to 'develop' version
- remove thread_id in logRecord/logRecord_mt
- revert (and adapt) configuration files
- be careful when doing frame++, we need to % 1024
- revert target_rx_power in openair2/LAYER2/MAC/eNB_scheduler_ulsch.c
- NFAPI:
- the open-nFAPI code has been included in the repository. See nfapi/README.
Maybe we should "git clone" the Cisco repository instead. We have to be
careful of availability though.
What has been tested:
- monolithic eNB FDD 5/10MHz with one UE, iperf UDP/TCP uplink/downlink
Anything else may fail to work, especially the FAPI mode, which has not
been tested at all.
It has been chosen to not include the full history of commits
from David. He included a binary version of wireshark, probably
a modified one that understands NFAPI. Wireshark is released under
the GPL license, we cannot include it in the repository. We could
have done a next commit to remove this binary. But then it would
still be present in the history of commits, which may not be allowed.
And it would take space on disk. We could edit the history to remove
wireshark entirely. But this operation is too complicated.
There was also a pcap capture file, which has nothing to do in
the history of commits and would take space on disk. There again,
it's too difficult to edit the history to remove it.
There was a file .gitignore that was also removed.
The original history can be found on David's repository:
https://gitlab.eurecom.fr/daveprice/openairinterface5g/
The branch is: nfapi-ru-rau-split.
A copy of that branch has been included in the internal OAI
repository, for those who have access to it.
The branch is the same. The last commit ID is
9106438239e0bc626ff1fa1d97d911caadd0fbb9.
You can compare the current commit with the commit 9106...
to see what differs.
The current commit has to be considered non-working.
The commit following the current commit will fix problems with
the work in the current commit.
If you use git bisect, don't spend time analyzing the current
commit.
physicalConfigDedicated may be legitimately NULL at some places
with the current code.
A cleaner solution is needed (we should always have a dedicated
config, initialized with values from the 3GPP specs, not have
a NULL as we do now).
phy_init_lte_ue_signal was renamed init_lte_ue_signal in openair1/PHY/INIT/defs.h
maybe it's the opposite that should have been done?
Functions used in one file and defined in another may have been
declared in the wrong header file.
- change target values
- change upper/lower limit to trigger a tpc
- don't use ul_cqi from SR
The value of ul_cqi is not convincing, for both PUSCH and PUCCH,
more work/analysis is required.
- re-use ta_timer
- when ta_timer is running:
- no TA sent to UE
- no TA from UE (for UE to have time to apply previous TA command)
- decrease ta_timer every TTI
- be careful to use correct value of ta_update (31 means no TA)
Maybe not correct, to be checked.
- don't use o_flip anymore in ulsch_decoding
- remove dl_cqi from eNB_UE_STATS
- put dl_cqi[NFAPI_CC_MAX] in UE_sched_ctrl
- adapt code for this dl_cqi change (from eNB_UE_STATS to UE_sched_ctrl)
- extract_pusch_csi has been fixed for CQI_ReportModeAperiodic_rm30,
the others need to be done. Program will exit if one uses them.
Not sure if setting sched_ctl->dl_cqi[CC_idP] has to be done in this
function...
