Patch Set #1, Line 486: * way we help BTS energy saving (on TRX!=C0) by sending nothing
This is how it works: […]
Oh, I overlooked the `skip_idle && trx != 0` part in the old code (left side). I don't remember why we had this constraint, but could you explain why are you removing it?
With this constraint we only have power saving on Cn (n > 0). On the BCCH carrier we always transmit PDCH blocks at full power, no matter if there are active TBFs or not, because we always get DATA.req for the C0.
By removing this constraint in your patch you're making osmo-bts-trx send Dummy Bursts (carrying no info at all) instead of Normal Bursts. Like I explained in my previous comment.
