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.

Half sided calls
by Sipos Csaba 29 Apr '16

29 Apr '16

Dear List, I am in the process of creating the Wiki page for Ettus B200/B210 with OpenBSC, GPRS and Asterisk. I am quite close, both data and calls are working, but the voice calls are half sided. The downlink direction works, but the uplink does not. I tried without Asterisk and LCR (between two phones) and still the calls are half sided. In the mean time I got these messages in the Osmo-BTS log: <0006> scheduler.c:276 PH-DATA.req: chan_nr=0x0a link_id=0x00 fn=1284768 ts=2 tr x=0 <0006> scheduler.c:1036 TCH/F has not been served !!

If someone have any idea, I would love to hear it. :-) Thanks! Csaba

[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

[PATCH 1/3] mncc: Implement helper functions to convert MNCC cause to a string.
by Alexander Chemeris 25 Nov '15

25 Nov '15

This is the first patch of the series. The first two patches are improvements of the log output and are independent of the 3rd patch in terms of code - proposed logging improvements just make it easier to debug issues with MNCC cause codes. The code is also a part of the achemeris/mncc_cause_fixes_master branch. -- Regards, Alexander Chemeris. CEO, Fairwaves, Inc. https://fairwaves.co

[PATCH 3/3] mncc: Send "Dest OOO" cause in case of a link radio failure.
by Alexander Chemeris 24 Nov '15

24 Nov '15

Previously we were sending a generic "Resource unavailable" cause code making it impossible to distinguish real error cases from a regular radio link failure. This was the reason for many "unknown" call errors we've seen at Rhizomatica installations. Now they are properly classified as non-erroneous call failures. The code is also a part of the achemeris/mncc_cause_fixes_master branch. -- Regards, Alexander Chemeris. CEO, Fairwaves, Inc. https://fairwaves.co

openBSC и Asterisk
by Yury Vashinko 30 Sep '15

30 Sep '15

Добрый день! Может кто подскажет, что может быть. Развернули openBSC на USRP B210 SDR без использования asterIsk - все работает - звоним, друг друга слышим. (Используем Ubuntu) Подключили использование asterisk по мануалу http://openbsc.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/Ettus_USRP_B2xx_family После установки вызов не устанавливается - прерывается. Может подскажете, что может быть - перепробовали разные конфигурации С уважением, Юрий

[PATCH] ipa, gsup: file rename to prepare for refactoring
by Neels Hofmeyr 29 Sep '15

29 Sep '15

Rename gprs_gsup_client.* to ipa_client.*. To ease diff reading for the upcoming commit, this commit performs a file rename only. Background: currently, GSUP is the only protocol spoken on the IPA wire. We will now add OAP, a new protocol to register the SGSN with a MAP proxy. What has been only the GSUP client will mostly become the general IPA client.
