Adjust target SNR values and introduce RSSI thresholds in the VNF configuration
files to prevent UL saturation. These changes improve uplink stability and
performance for tests with Aerial and WNC RU.
Fix Delta MCS mode, reimplement UL power control
This change set fixes the "delta-MCS" mode, and reimplements the UL power
control loops at gNB, i.e., for PUSCH and PUCCH. It further adds new T traces
to log PUSCH/PUCCH power infrmation, and cleans up code.
The "delta-MCS" mode in OAI refers to configuring a UE with deltaMCS in the
PUSCH-PowerControl IE (see TS 38.331). In this mode, the UE adjusts the PUSCH
power for transmissions to take into account for MCS (see TS 38.213 Sec. 7.1).
In other words, the target SNR can be set to a somewhat low value, and the UE
will still use the right power for UL transmissions. Note that the spec only
foresees this adjustment of UL power when using one layer. In contrast, in the
"normal" mode, the gNB sends TPC commands to keep a UE at a fixed target SNR
(default: 20dB), regardless of the MCS or number of layers. Future work is
planned to completely remove this fixed target SNR, which is not done in this
MR yet.
Further, there is a new power control loop implementation. Prior to this MR, on
each UL transmissions, the gNB uses the SNR to decide about TPC sent to a UE in
the next transmissions. The new implementation relies on averaging the SNR, and
a "TPC in flight" average to account for the slow reaction of the average SNR.
The sum of both quantities is the current SNR that is used by the UE. See the
commit messages or documentation for more information.
Further cleanup to group data (e.g., power control configuration, refactoring of
code to save space, ...) is done. Two new T traces GNB_MAC_PUSCH_POWER_CONTROL
and GNB_MAC_PUCCH_POWER_CONTROL are added; documentation exists to explain how
to graphically plot corresponding graphs.
Configure DigitalBeamTable in OAI and pass down to Aerial L1
With this MR it will be possible to define a Beamtable in OAI and pass it down
to a L1 (Aerial or OAI) which then will either use them locally to apply
static beamforming (Split 8 with USRP) or pass them down to the RU using 7.2
split with Section Extension 1.
PUCCH Format 1 decoder implementation and validation with nr_pucchsim
This is the implementation of the PUCCH Format 1 decoder, validated with
pucchsim in the current branch.
Build:
./build_oai --nrUE --gNB --ninja --phy_simulators
Run tests:
ctest -L nr_pucchsim -j 8
Introduce UE NAS Simulator
This MR introduces a simple standalone tester for 5G UE NAS signaling and NGAP
messages. It connects to the AMF to perform NGAP and NAS encoding/decoding and
validates the UE Registration and PDU Session Establishment processes without
the overhead of a full Radio Access Network (PHY/MAC/RLC).
The motivation for this tester is as follows,
- This tester is a lightweight, deterministic tool to test the UE NAS layer
directly.
- Developers can easily inject specific NAS messages depending on the use-case.
- Developers can validate custom NAS/NGAP messages without the need to implement
complete RRC/MAC etc procedures.
Start the 5G Core network to test the UE NAS simulator. The compiling and
testing procedure is described below.
To compile:
mkdir build && cd build && cmake .. -GNinja && ninja nr-ue-nas-simulator-test
To run:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./tests/nr-ue-nas-simulator/nr-ue-nas-simulator-test -O ../tests/nr-ue-nas-simulator/test.conf
This commit completes the PUCCH Format 1 decoder implementation using
maximum-likelihood detection with RE averaging across symbols/RB (and
hop-wise averaging for intra-slot hopping). It also updates the PUCCH
simulation/test flow to align with the decoder changes, including
payload and logging consistency fixes needed for correct validation.
Do not limit DL power, because it is not done in the other pipelines
either. Set the UL target power high, as this increases the achievable
throughput high (PUCCH can be normal). Finally, increase BLER thresholds
to improve the MCS a bit.
[E2 agent] Refactor E2SM-KPM and implement support for REPORT style 1
- Refactor E2SM-KPM to:
- better handle different supported REPORT styles needed for "E2 Setup
Request"
- pass "Measurement Label" for calculating the measurement values
- Implement Subscription for E2SM-KPM REPORT style 1 and fill the PDSCH MCS
distribution measurement (CARR.PDSCHMCSDist)
- Fix the memory leakage caused by the UEs filtering based on NSSAI for REPORT
style 4
Tested successfully with and without ASan:
- in rfsim mode: gNB-mono, CU/DU and CU-CP/CU-UP/DU
- with the USRP B210: gNB-mono
and xapp_kpm_moni, xapp_rc_moni and xapp_kpm_rc xApps.
1. Allocate memory for the ue_id and ue_info_list arrays on the stack.
Explanation:
Every granularity period, the program passes through the fp_match_cond_type,
then through match_s_nssai_test_cond_type function pointers. Based on the node type,
the function used calloc() for these arrays.
=> the longer a connection with an E2SM-KPM xApp was, the more memory leakage occured.
2. If matched UEs > 0, only free the memory of ue_id content after each
Indication Message was sent.
Remove old CUDA LDPC implementation
A new implementation is under way in !3955. To simplify the MR, remove the old
LDPC CUDA implementation in a first step.
mac: fixes to prevent prb overlapping
- this patch fixes a bug in the MAC where the scheduled PRB resources can
overlap
- at the same time, we try to enforce the same semantics for "rbStart" (which
should be relative to the BWP) across the code as much as possible
Introduce new data structures to track the average SNR and RSSI, and
that allow to dynamically modify the target SNR (per UE) as well as
continuously get TPC updates based on the average SNR. The target SNR is
per power control loop (which a future commit will extend to use for
PUCCH).
Concretely, it maintains an average of measured SNR and RSSI. It also
updates "tpc_in_flight", which tracks TPC changes that don't show up in
the average yet. For instance, imagine that the target SNR of 15 changes
to 20. Three successive TPC commands need to be sent (+3, +1, +1), but
it will take time to show up in the average SNR. To account for this,
tpc_in_flight is updated by the TPCs sent, and an average will make it
go down back to zero at the same pace as the average SNR approaches the
target SNR. The sum of average SNR and tpc_in_flight sums up to the
actual, current SNR, which approximates the target SNR.
The SNR is kept within -1<=targetSNR<=+2dB to avoid too many TPC
changes.
The current average SNR (sum of average SNR and tpc_in_flight) is used
to continuously get TPC updates, taking into account recent TPCs sent,
the difference to target SNR, and RSSI.
If there is DTX, tpc_in_flight is modified to artificially introduce TPC
commands which increase the currently used SNR of the UE. This is
temporary, as tpc_in_flight eventually will go back to zero. If the DTX
was due to sudden SNR drop (e.g., higher path loss), this will allow to
quickly adapt the UE's SNR to new conditions.
The periodical logs are extended to not only show the current SNR, but
also the difference from the target for better analysis.

The phr_txpower_calc field actually needs to be saved in the HARQ
process for later retrieval, so set sched_pusch after phr_txpower_calc
has been calculated.
UE: update pdcch config only after mib read
- In MR !3929, this change was done to call update_pdcch_config if mac
configuration is changed.
- Observed that the issue related to RAR after handover if SSB position changes
occurs also in develop 2026_w10 where MR !3929 is merged.
- update_pdcch_config should be done only after sync obtained.
- this fix is similar to the fix in initial commits of MR !3929
* Option to build ldpc_cuda was remaining in the build script
* Build script option to build ldpc_cuda was still used in CI
* Mentions of ldpc_cuda were remaining in the documentation
Note: In the documentation, the example of ldpctest usage that was
loading ldpc_cuda was replaced by an example in which it is loading
ldpc_orig even though this is pointless as it makes ldpctest compare
ldpc_orig with ldpc_orig. On the other hand, it is the only library
other than the default ldpc that uses the former interface.
Remove OSD, some scripts, oaisim references
The README says:
It is just generating the XML file and it is placing it in
$(OPENAIR_TARGETS)/SIMU/EXAMPLE/OSD/WEBXML/ or http://localhost/xmlfile/
so that the oaisim could pars and run the simulation/emulation
oaisim does not exist anymore, and corresponding simulation cannot be done.
Also, it requires XAMPP and similar technologies, that I think nobody uses
in the context of OAI.
Remove also most references to oaisim.
Remove some scripts that are likely not used by anybody, or straight useless.
