The lower bound for the tests are too tight and any slight improvement in the timing can result in a test failure.
For example, these tests were failing due to the improvements from the MR 3718
- We use the same function at gNB and UE.
- We always use nb_antennas_tx to check the max possible number of ports (which is wrong).
- At gNB, we should use nb_antennas_rx and at the UE, we should use nb_antennas_tx.
The memory alignment is required to use c16multaddVectRealComplex
in SRS channel interpolation. With a change in SRS comb_offset, the
existing algorithm was giving segmentation fault.
The existing srs channel estimation required memory alignment at two
stages. 1. When k = 0 (the first srs subcarrier), 2. When subcarrier <
K_TC (wrapped around after ofdm_symbol_size). Thus two memory alignments
are required leading to complications.
The srs channel estimation is now simplified to do it linearly instead of
wrapping around. This simplified the memory alignment required only when
k = 0.
- Introduce signal energy and noise variance functions
- Combine rotation and OFDM modulation RX as a function
- Harmonize the use of number of antennas across the code
- Rename nr_ue_pusch_common_procedures() to nr_tx_rotation_and_ofdm_mod() to decribe the functionality better
This commit inputs several distances at once and obtain the summary of
successful and failed tests. We look for the number of successful tests
that are geater than 0. We do that here since we sometimes dont receive
a response for a telnet command from the rfsim although the command
is applied. This is related to the queing telnet commands in the rfsim.
The script for the distances 50, 100 and 150 are called as follows,
./set-and-verify-distance-prs.sh 50 100 150
The summary can be viewed as follows,
==================== SUMMARY ====================
Total tests run : 3
Successful tests: 3
Failed tests : 0
=================================================
Set RFsim (DL) distance and use PRS to estimate the new distance. This
is verified by comparing the distance set in RFsim with the distance
reported through ToA estimation at the UE.
Note that since RFsim telnet output is asynchronous (it uses a queue
internally), we use grep --max-count 1 to wait for the matching line,
together with ncat --idle 0.3 to keep ncat open for some time. The
--max-count option will terminate grep after the first occurrence. For
this to work reliably, we need to use grep <(echo | ncat) as opposod to
simply echo | ncat | grep, as the latter does not seem to reliably
make grep exit after the occurrence.

Previously, we were using int16_t for the variable ch_tmp which was later harmonized to use c16_t while leaving <<1. This introduced the bug while accessing the address of the element at first_half of the ch_tmp variable.
