Pysim error: SW match failed
by Martin Nagy 16 Aug '25

16 Aug '25

Hi all, After buying a super Sim Kit (16 in 1) from China, I tried the reader (green PCB inside a blue transparent plastic case with a blue LED) and SIM (identified as a fakesupersim) with pysim tool. However i am getting the following error: /pySim-prog.py -n 26C3 -c 49 -x 262 -y 42 -z 1234 -j 1 -t auto Insert card now (or CTRL-C to cancel) Autodetected card type fakemagicsim Generated card parameters : > Name : 26C3 > SMSP : e1ffffffffffffffffffffffff058100945555ffffffffffff000000 > ICCID : 8949262427518313026 > MCC/MNC : 262/42 > IMSI : 262422461512085 > Ki : 7b74741a1ee14337ec23f9ab92a13648 > OPC : ccd867d60797d8d45354a51b3ef568ff Programming ...

Also I have tried forcing different models of SIM, but nothing is working. Obviously I can remove this check from the script file (__init__.py in /pySim/transport), however somebody had a reason to put such condition there. I would like to ask if it is safe to remove that line of code and the purpose of that line of code. Thanks a lot and best regards Martin

Re: Help with sccp library

I means: is the interaction with mtp3 layer implemented (is sending sccp data by mtp3 implemented by the library?)? Also, what about the reception of data from mtp3 layer. is that implemented in the sccp lib. I am asking these questions because I see the code of mtp3 in the lib but no significant call is present in the sccp part of the lib. Thank you for your help.

[PATCH 0/4] core/conv: Fast Viterbi decoding
by Thomas Tsou 26 Apr '16

26 Apr '16

Hi all, This patch set adds to libosmocore an optimized Viterbi decodeer for architecture specific (Intel SSE) and non-specific cases. The implementation covers codes with constraint lengths of K=5 and K=7 and rates 1/4 to 3/4, which make up the majority of GSM use cases. Speedup from the current implementation is in the range of 5 to 20 depending on the processor and code type. API is unchanged. Tested on Haswell (i7-4770K) and Atom (D2550). Additional test codes from osmo-bts are included. Further tests for AWGN bit-error-rate and benchmarks can be found in the following repository. https://github.com/ttsou/osmo-conv-test Here are some examples. Bit error test for GPRS CS2 with SNR of 5 dB and 100000 bursts. $ ./conv_test -c 2 -e -r 5 -i 100000 ================================================= [+] Testing: GPRS CS2 [.] Specs: (N=2, K=5, non-recursive, flushed, not punctured) [.] Input length : ret = 290 exp = 290 -> OK [.] Output length : ret = 588 exp = 588 -> OK [.] BER tests: [..] Testing base: [..] Input BER.......................... 0.042443 [..] Output BER......................... 0.000006 [..] Output FER......................... 0.001350 (135) [..] Testing SIMD: [..] Input BER.......................... 0.042460 [..] Output BER......................... 0.000005 [..] Output FER......................... 0.001240 (124) Timed AFS benchmark with 8 threads and 100000 bursts per thread. $ ./conv_test -b -c 10 -j 8 -i 100000 ================================================= [+] Testing: GSM TCH/AFS 6.7 [.] Specs: (N=4, K=5, recursive, flushed, punctured) [.] Input length : ret = 140 exp = 140 -> OK [.] Output length : ret = 448 exp = 448 -> OK [.] Performance benchmark: [..] Encoding / Decoding 800000 bursts on 8 thread(s): [..] Testing base: [..] Elapsed time....................... 4.320001 secs [..] Rate............................... 25.925920 Mbps [..] Testing SIMD: [..] Elapsed time....................... 0.458272 secs [..] Rate............................... 244.396341 Mbps [..] Speedup............................ 9.426718 -TT

recurring issue with OpenBSC
by Ciaby 06 Apr '15

06 Apr '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hi! First a small update: we finally decided to _not_ use token mode, as it confuses a lot of phones, after receiving the token message the SIM goes into an error state and the only way to recover is to reboot the phone. Now we just read the IMSI straight from the SIM (using the card python library, just like osmo-sim-auth does) and register them. Now, the issue we see is that 1-2 users every day reach a point where they can make phone calls and send messages, but they can't receive neither of them. Sometimes the problem can be fixed by running: > subscriber extension <EXT> clear-requests but this only work when there are pending requests. In other cases, the phone has to be rebooted. Did anyone encounter the same issue?

Final review of L1SAP ported to current maste
by Harald Welte 25 Mar '15

25 Mar '15

Dear all, the valuable L1SAP abstraction has been sitting out of master for too long time. It is a pity that this has taken so long. I've finally been able to put some time into osmo-bts again and reviewed the following patch series. It consists of mostly Andreas' work, interspersed with smaller patches/fixups that I introduced after the respective original patch from Andreas. I have started a sysmobts between all of the major steps in this patch series and did a short manual tests involving registration (LU) of two MS, mobile-to-mobile call and vty-to-mobile SMS. So far I couldn't see any problems. What has not been tested yet is the PCU interface as well as encryption support. I plan to do this later this week. I intend to merge the code after this current review cycle. Please take your time to have a look and provide feedback (if any), so we can get this over and work on new features again, rather than infrastrutural changes. I didn't yet rebase the osmo-bts-trx interface on top of the L1SAP, as I don't have a hardware setup for it, and I will leave it to the owners of such hardware to publish/push the respective code after L1SAP is merged.

baseband hopping
by Sipos Csaba 11 Feb '15

11 Feb '15

Dear list, If someone can confirm that a setting like this for baseband hopping is valid, that would be awsome: TRX0: (ARFCN=883) - TS0: MA=883,885 HSN=0 MAIO=0 (non hopping, BCCH+SDCCH4) - TS1: MA=883,885 HSN=0 MAIO=0 (hopping, TCH) - TS2: MA=883,885 HSN=0 MAIO=0 (hopping, TCH) - TS3: MA=883,885 HSN=0 MAIO=0 (hopping, TCH) - TS4: MA=883,885 HSN=0 MAIO=0 (hopping, TCH) - TS5: MA=883,885 HSN=0 MAIO=0 (hopping, TCH) - TS6: MA=883,885 HSN=0 MAIO=0 (hopping, TCH) - TS7: MA=883,885 HSN=0 MAIO=0 (hopping, TCH) TRX1: (ARFCN=885) - TS0: MA=883,885 HSN=0 MAIO=1 (non-hopping, TCH) - TS1: MA=883,885 HSN=0 MAIO=1 (hopping, TCH) - TS2: MA=883,885 HSN=0 MAIO=1 (hopping, TCH) - TS3: MA=883,885 HSN=0 MAIO=1 (hopping, TCH) - TS4: MA=883,885 HSN=0 MAIO=1 (hopping, TCH) - TS5: MA=883,885 HSN=0 MAIO=1 (hopping, TCH) - TS6: MA=883,885 HSN=0 MAIO=1 (hopping, TCH) - TS7: MA=883,885 HSN=0 MAIO=1 (hopping, TCH) This is one sector with 2 TRX configured for BB hopping. Thanks in advance! Csaba

[Patch]: Nokia: make hopping a user changeable parameter
by Sipos Csaba 08 Feb '15

08 Feb '15

Dear Holger, Thanks for the commit on my previous patch. Here is a new one: This pacth makes hopping type (baseband or RF) a user changeable parameter. Tested with: - MetroSite: baseband and RF hopping works - UltraSite: RF hopping works As previously, the default behavior of OpenBSC is not changed. If the configuration parameter is not provided, it will default to baseband hopping, as before. It builds against the latest version of OpenBSC master. Regards, Csaba

Re: Patch for OpenBSC [Nokia Site family]
by Sipos Csaba 07 Feb '15

07 Feb '15

Dear Holger, I think I found a better way for initialization. The attached version of the patch builds against latest master OpenBSC, contains the fixes I missed from the previous version. Tested: 1. Without using the config parameter, the reset timer defaults to 15 seconds (as before), 2. With the configuration parameter, the reset timer will use the specified value. Tested with: InSite (daisy chained, two BTSes), MetroSite and UltraSite units. Will create another patch for hopping (both baseband and sytheiser hopping works, but it needs a change in the sourcecode, like the reset timer before). There is another minor problem at the moment: UltraSite needs additional time after OMU configuration done, before it can bootstrap the RSL links. This is due to the fact that UltraSite starts to load the TRX SW after it got the "Use current" command, and it takes arouned 45-50 seconds for the TRXes to be ready for LAPD. So to first RSL bootstrap should be delayed after OMU config complete is received by the BSC. Now the RSL link is bootstrapped right after the OMU is configured and the LAPD link times out way before the TRX will be ready for LAPD. Will try to create a patch for this too, until then, a small hack can make this problem go away (changing n200 parameter to 100).

It is not the best place but gsm_bts_alloc would allow you to initialize this field correctly. The other option would be when the type of the bts is set to nokia.
