( https://gerrit.osmocom.org/c/libosmo-abis/+/39620?usp=email ) Change subject: trau_rtp_conv: document API functions ...................................................................... trau_rtp_conv: document API functions The two API functions that constitute TRAU<->RTP conversion layer of libosmotrau, osmo_trau2rtp() and osmo_rtp2trau(), date back to the reintroduction of E1 BTS support in Osmocom in 2020, and their functionality has been greatly extended in previous Themyscira patches. However, they have not been properly documented until now - fix this defect.

In the case of HR codec, RFC 5993 input + * is also appropriate as specified in 3GPP TS 48.103 - as long as the user + * remembers that the extra header octet is ignored. + * + * - The only correct way to implement TrFO for GSM, accepting FR/HR/EFR from + * call leg A uplink in TW-TS-001 or TW-TS-002 format and generating TRAU-DL + * frames for call leg B, is to apply the TFO transform of TS 28.062 section + * C.3.2.1.1, then feed the output of that transform to the present function. + * + * - The provision whereby a zero-length RTP payload is not treated as an error + * like other invalid RTP inputs, but is converted to an idle speech frame + * in TRAU-DL output should be considered a bogon. This condition never + * occurs when the just-mentioned TFO transform is applied immediately prior + * to TRAU-DL output, nor does it ever occur in the original GSM architecture + * where the TRAU either free-runs a speech encoder or applies the same TFO + * transform - hence it is unlikely to be handled well by real E1 BTSes. + * Furthermore, this code path in libosmotrau is currently broken (the + * intended idle speech frame gets turned into a "regular" but invalid FR/EFR + * speech frame) and should be considered for removal. + * + * Considerations for TRAU-UL output: + * + * - For FR and EFR codecs, the only correct RTP format for conversion to + * TRAU-UL (TFO) is TW-TS-001 - the basic RTP format of TS 101 318 or + * RFC 3551 lacks the necessary metadata flags. + * + * - TRAU-UL output for HR codec is not currently implemented; when we do + * implement it in the future, TW-TS-002 will be required in this path + * for the same reason as above. + * + * - TRAU-UL output for CSD 14.4 kbit/s mode is not currently implemented + * (C-bits are always set according to the rules for TRAU-DL) - but the + * primary application for TRAU-UL frame output via libosmotrau is TFO, + * which does not include CSD. + */ int osmo_rtp2trau(struct osmo_trau_frame *tf, const uint8_t *rtp, size_t rtp_len, struct osmo_trau2rtp_state *st) { -- To view, visit https://gerrit.osmocom.org/c/libosmo-abis/+/39620?usp=email To unsubscribe, or for help writing mail filters, visit https://gerrit.osmocom.org/settings?usp=email Gerrit-MessageType: newchange Gerrit-Project: libosmo-abis Gerrit-Branch: master Gerrit-Change-Id: Ib7ee2466aaab47e47f78ff94c5179b90cf393d0e Gerrit-Change-Number: 39620 Gerrit-PatchSet: 1 Gerrit-Owner: falconia &lt;falcon(a)freecalypso.org&gt;
