Make all targets compile
This MR enables us to compile all targets, and does that in one CI test. This
closes#726. Now, this should work:
cd ~/openairinterface5g
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -GNinja && ninja
To achieve this, I did the following:
- some targets have been fixed (warnings, errors)
- some targets have been removed when they did not seem to serve a good purpose
(e.g., an almost empty test)
- some targets have been commented (e.g., LTE simulators, some unitary tests)
which we maybe want to revive in the future
- some targets built when just building with ninja, but not all. For instance,
telnetsrv_enb would typically build, but it was missing a dependency. Doing
cmake .. -GNinja && ninja telnetsrv_enb would show this (in develop)
To help with the last bullet point, there is a script compile_targets.sh that
can compile targets independently (and in parallel, to not wait for ages) to
show that targets compile properly compile-targets.patch.
In almost all cases, the problem is that a specific module uses the logging
module, which depends on T, which needs to dynamically create headers. The way
to do this is to have a dependency, and many targets use generate_T or {T_LIB}
({} intentional: T might be absent, so then it evaluates to nothing). However,
not all do this, and those that depend on T actually don't depend on T, but on
the logging module, which in turn depends on T. So in many places, a simple
dependency onto log_headers fixes this problem, and generate_T or {T_LIB}
simplifies the dependency (but not always). The commits should have more info.
Note that at least the targets in FlexRIC do not all compile, at least in the
configuration that we use in docker/Dockerfile.build.ubuntu. So for the latter,
we cannot build with a simple ninja, but FlexRIC seems to be the only one that
does not compile. Since FlexRIC is a separate repository, that needs to be
addressed in the corresponding repository.
NR UE: add UCI (HARQ-ACK/NACK) on PUSCH support at PHY
Add UCI (HARQ-ACK/NACK) on PUSCH support at nrUE PHY, the multiplexing procedure
can be found in TS 38.212 section 6.2.7.
Verified with 3rd-pary gNB for cases when HARQ payload bits length is 1, 2 or 3.
Closes#959 and #967 .
Since there is no UCI on PUSCH implementation in gNB, it is good to test
UE's implementation with matlab.
This commit allows to test with matlab in two ways:
1. generate OFDM waveform from ulsim and decode it in matlab using
uci_on_pusch_decode.m
2. generate codeword in matlab using uci_on_pusch_encode.m read it in
ulsim and compare the bits. ulsim option -o is used
When the codeword has UCI multiplexed with data, we need to handle UCI scrambling according to 38.211 section 6.3.1.1.
Especially when O_ACK <= 2 there are x and y placeholder bits for UCI.
Get beta offset, alpha scaling and other parameters to calculate rate matching information for UCI on PUSCH,
then use the rate matching info to encode UCI and re-encode PUSCH, call nr_uci_on_pusch to get final multiplexed codeword for scrambling.
coding_defs.h included defs_common.h, which pulls in many dependencies,
e.g., the logging module, which pulls in T. However, it does not use
anything of this. So remove, and include stdbool.h instead (because bool
is used in coding_defs.h.
nr_polar_defs.h relied on some includes done in coding_defs. Use
includes for pthreads and SIMD to define types that are used in
nr_polar_defs.h.
This constant seems to be an analogon to NUMBER_OF_UE_MAX; replace with
the latter, as it does the same. (NBIoT does not work, anyway)
Fix dependencies of the NB_IoT target so it compiles.

Data and control multiplexing procedure is defined in 38.212 section 6.2.7.
Step 3 (CSI1 and CSI2 mapping) is not implemented, only HARQ-ACK.
PUSCH frequency hopping is not supported.
Use betaOffset and alpha scaling etc. to get rate matching information of UCI on PUSCH (e.g. max bit capacity of encoded UCI and encoded ULSCH)
according to TS 38.212 section 6.3.2.4 and 6.2.7.
38.212 section 5.3.3.1 and 5.3.3.2 describe how to encode 1-bit and 2-bit information.
This is needed when typically HARQ-ACK will be transmitted on PUSCH.
38.212 section 5.4.3 also describes how to do rate matching for channel coding of small block lengths.
Code cleanup (SRS, config files and more)
- Remove deprecated elements from some configuration files (also closes#997)
- Improve SRS code with a better separation between common code and gNB/UE code
- Other minor compilation improvements
Implementing the option to have more than 1 RSRP in CSI report
In collaboration with NI/Emerson.
The standard allows up to 4 RSRP measurements in CSI report (1 full and the other
differential). In current OAI, we just configure 1 RSRP report for the strongest
SSB. This MR allows to configure at gNB more than 1 RSRP report (depending on
config file, number of SSBs and UE capabilities) and makes changes at the UE to
send this report.
CI: Generalize PhySim tests, run PhySims on Gracehopper
This changeset generalizes/harmonizes the CI infrastructure for physim
testing, and adds a new pipeline for physim tests on Gracehopper
machines.
Specifically:
- Refactor the existing CI code for running and analyzing physical
simulators. The existing code assumed those tests are deployed using
OpenShift. Instead, OpenShift/Helm-specificities (e.g., running a
"release") have been removed, and instead of hardcoding the deployment
of the physical simulators using a script for Helm, the function takes
any script that can deploy using Helm/docker/from source. The overall
appearance is the same.
- Add a new pipeline RAN-PhySim-GraceHopper-5G that executes physical
simulators on gracehopper. Reporting is done in the same way as for
existing physical simulators (e.g., like in the RAN-PhySim-Cluster-5G
pipeline), but deployed in docker instead of helm.
-> some tests don't work reliably on ARM yet and are skipped
- the RAN-gNB-N300-Timing-Phytest-LDPC pipeline has been reworked to use
the same code for testing T2 offload, with ctest, and the same
reporting.
- the CUDA LDPC test XML has been removed, as these tests don't work
reliably.
- add a new macro add_timed_physim_test() that allows to define
thresholds to be checked, so that ctest will check for them. see the
documentation for more information
Most (but not all) physical simulators are defined under
openair1/SIMULATION/. Defining physical simulators below there seems to
be the more "obvious" directory anyway, as the physical simulators are
openair1/SIMULATION/tests
Phy(L1) Sim tests => PhySim (tests)
gNB: adaptive DL/UL MCS based on reported SSB-SINR and measured PUSCH SNR
Currently this is used esp. if the number of rounds is limited to 1
(e.g. disable_harq).
