Tutorials: updates for NR SA Tutorials
- Update links for the latest Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS iso file
- Update docker install to the latest instructions on the official
website
- Update UHD to v4.8.0.0
- Add support for 'default'/"empty" DNN to CN5G configuration file
* Add support for 'default' DNN to CN5G configuration file (that
will also be used when DNN is not available, "empty" DNN). This
configuration will allow most of the COTS UE to get PDUSession
without any APN configuration made by the user
* The 'default'/"empty" DNN configuration support was added in
oai/cn5g/oai-cn5g-amf!343

OpenAirInterface documentation overview |
This is the general overview page of the OpenAirInterface documentation.
This page groups links to general information, tutorials, design documents, radio integration, and special-purpose libraries.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Before reading this documentation, we strongly advise you to keep your own repository rebased on develop
or at least to checkout the documentation on the version of the repository you are using.
Then the documentation will better reflect the features available in your repository so that you may avoid some errors.
Beware if you previously pulled the develop branch that your repository may be now behind develop.

Libraries
General
- The T tracer: a generic tracing tool (VCD, Wireshark, GUI, to save for later, ...)
- OPT: how to trace to wireshark
- The configuration module
- The logging module
- The shared object loader
- The threadpool used in L1
- The LDPC implementation is a shared library
- The time management module
Radios
Some directories under radio contain READMEs:
The other SDRs (AW2S, LimeSDR, ...) have no READMEs.
Special-purpose libraries
- OAI has two scopes: one based on Xforms and one based on imgui, described in this README
- OAI comes with an integrated telnet server to monitor and control
- OAI comes with an integrated web server
Testing
- UnitTests.md explains the unit testing setup
- TESTBenches.md lists the CI setup and links to pipelines
Developer tools
- formatting is a clang-format error detection tool
- iwyu is a tool to detect
#includeerrors - docker-dev-env is a ubuntu22 docker development environment
