This commit introduces the following changes to ImScope:
- Added the ability to record IQ data using the same mechanism as ImScope.
- Added a new executable target `imscope_iq_file_viewer` for viewing IQ files.
- Introduced a command line argument `--imscope-record` that enables data recording mode.
- Refactored a lot of the scope code
Usage:
- To record IQ data, run a modem with `--imscope-record` flag.
The recording happens whenever a modem calls dumpScopeData, which currently is
done only in gNB on PUSCH DTX and PUSCH CRC NOK.
There is a limit of ~1GB of files written by the thread in a signle run to avoid
accidentally exhausting disk space.
If a directory `imscope-dump` is available the data will be recorded there in .imscope
files. Otherwise files are written to the directory the modem was run. This is done so that
the directory can be mapped in a docker container.
- To view recorded IQ files, use the new executable `imscope_iq_file_viewer`. This can be done by running:
```
./imscope_iq_file_viewer <path_to_iq_file>
```
Replace `<path_to_iq_file>` with the path to the IQ file you want to view.
- Using imgui docking branch - allows window docking.
- Moved scopes to different windows to allow docking.
- Disabled scatterplot for time domain samples - issues with amount of vertices caused segfaults.
- Disabled IQ heatmaps for RX IQ samples on gNB and UE - this was incorrect and currently I don't know
how to fix it. This will be reenabled once it is.
- added a simple menu and disabled demo windows by default.
Add a new scope data source (ueTimeDomainSamples) which provides time domain samples
for antenna 0 to the scope. Add graphical representation of the data in imscope.
Removed C-define from ENABLE_IMSCOPE cmake option, the #define was unused and this way
code does not have to be recompiled when imscope enable state changes.
pdschRxdataF_comp data source was handled incorrectly. Each symbol entire slot data was copied. This
caused pdschRxdataF_comp to mostly contain zeros. The call to UEscopeCopy was moved from symbol loop
into last symbol processing. In case imscope is used padding and unused REs are not copied to the
sink.
Added checks inside scope functions to ensure correct functionality.
A new phy scope based on ImGui and ImPlot. This scope uses a different concurrency model than previous
scopes.
The PHY thread writing the data first checks if the data is ready to be written. If its not, nothing is copied.
The GUI thread reads data if available and marks it ready to write. This makes sure that the PHY threads are not
busy copying data that would never be displayed.
Some of the scopes also have a freeze functionality that further limit the amount of data that needs to be copied
from PHY threads. If a scope is "frozen" it still allows the user to explore the data using plots zoom/pan functions
but doesn't cause PHY threads to perform extra writes on the displayed data.
A compile option was added to enable/disable the scope. Use cmake -DENABLE_IMSCOPE=ON to enable the scope.
Update CXX standard to 17; it is required by some libraries (e.g., dear imgui). The oldest gcc version in
use by a distribution supported is Ubuntu 20, which has gcc 9.4 with c++17 support.
