Jaroslava Fiedlerova d7fc76b726 Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/nrppa_ngap_integration' into integration_2026_w10 (!3884)
Integrate NRPPA and NGAP messages required for positioning

This MR integrates NRPPA and NGAP messages required for positioning.
The following NGAP messages are integrated (3GPP 38.413 Version 16.0.0):

NGAP UPLINK UE ASSOCIATED NRPPA TRANSPORT
NGAP UPLINK NON UE ASSOCIATED NRPPA TRANSPORT
NGAP DOWNLINK UE ASSOCIATED NRPPA TRANSPORT
NGAP DOWNLINK NON UE ASSOCIATED NRPPA TRANSPORT

The following NRPPA messages are integrated (3GPP 38.455 Version 16.7.1):

TRP Information Request
TRP Information Response
Positioning Information Request
Positioning Information Response
Positioning activation request
Positioning Activation Response
Measurement Request
Measurement Response

This MR tests these messages via a standalone tester nr-cu-nrppa-test that
connects to the AMF to perform NGAP enc/dec and NRPPA enc/dec

This folder contains the software for layer 1 of the OpenAirInterface eNB and UE as well as the unitary simulators

|-- PHY			   // contains all signal processing related to physical layer (used in real-time AND simulation)

General remarks: every directory contains at least defs.h (for declaration of structure and functions), vars.h (for definitions of variables), and extern.h (variables are defined only once in xxx-softmodem.c (for real-time HW operation) or a top-level simulation (in SIMULATION/xxx), if variables are needed in another file, use extern.h)
