Hi everybody,
we have just done the first download of an Internet page using the current bleeding EDGE development version of the OSMO-PCU. Supported are MCS-1 to MCS-9 in downlink and MCS-1 to MCS-4 in uplink direction.
The download of 'www.osmocom.org' has been documented in a PCAP file and can be downloaded from
https://openbsc.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/osmo-pcu
To decode the data blocks, an experimental patch for the gsmtab dissector is also available from there.
Cheers
Jacob
Hi Jacob,
Congratulations and thank you for all your hard work.
I hope I can do some testing on the weekend with a B200. I will also update the wiki article if needed.
Just one question: for MCS5-9 in the downlink there is no need to update the Osmo-TRX code? Does it support 8PSK as it is now?
Regards, Csaba

Hi Sipos,
Osmo-trx does not support 8-PSK at this moment, so you should implement it if you want to test it. ;)

Hi Alexander,
Thats what I was afraid of :-)
Anyway, even having EDGE with GMSK MCSs is a huge step forward, so I can't say anything but thank you, and I hope I can contribute with some testing and protocol analysis. :-)
Now we are using OpenBSC in two lab exercises and I hope to extend it with SDR and EDGE. I can't wait to try it :-)

Sipos,
All thanks for this EDGE development goes to Jacob/Sysmocom. We at Fairwaves haven't looked at it yet. We're planning to add 8PSK to osmo-trx, but we don't have a roadmap for it yet.

Thank you. And many thanks to Sysmocom and On-Waves to make this possible.
I hope I can do some testing on the weekend with a B200. I will also update the wiki article if needed.
It is not in master yet and my development (wip) branch is still a mess (GPRS is b0rken in the latter), but this should improve soon. I'll put the revised commits to jerlbeck/master first.
Just one question: for MCS5-9 in the downlink there is no need to update the Osmo-TRX code? Does it support 8PSK as it is now?
I've only tested it with the sysmobts with direct DSP access so far and haven't looked at the Osmo-TRX or the pcu-if socket based connection to the BTS. But currently the CS/MCS choice is only communicated indirectly via the RLC block size which is unique for each coding scheme. The CPS (coding and puncturing scheme) is also not passed explicitly, only within the header which is different for each MCS header type. So the API for downlink blocks hasn't change, and it should only depend of the MCS encoding/decoding capabilities of the RF DSP/software.
Regards
Jacob

GPRS is fixed and jerlbeck/master is updated. Make sure to limit the MCS according to the HW/SW, so use the 'mcs max 4' command if the HW does not support 8PSK. Note that 8PSK is only supported for downlink yet, but the 'mcs max' command does not check this. So you should use 'mcs max 9 4' explicitely (this should be fixed by the additional commits (currently) in jerlbeck/testing/pcu, which adds that check and proper default values).

Hi Jacob,
Thanks for the information.
Just wanted to test the new code, and I hit this problem:
make[1]: Entering directory `/root/new_osmocom/osmo-pcu/src' CXX decoding.lo decoding.cpp:26:34: fatal error: osmocom/core/bitcomp.h: No such file or directory #include <osmocom/core/bitcomp.h> ^ compilation terminated. make[1]: *** [decoding.lo] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/new_osmocom/osmo-pcu/src' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
The libosmocore (master) is updated today, and the missing file is actually in /usr/local/include/osmocom/core/bitvec.h
I tried both "jerlbeck/testing/pcu" and "jerlbeck/master" branches, the error is the same.
Maybe I am missing something?

you need to grab the t4 patches Max from Sysmocom has posted. Due minor coding style issues these are not in master yet.
