Hi list, I've installed omsocom for the first time on a USRP B200 and I'm interested in trying out the GPRS stack. I've followed a few pages on the wiki, namely http://openbsc.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/network_from_scratch and http://openbsc.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/OpenBSC_GPRS to get set up and I am not sure how up to date these tutorials are. I have calls working via the LCR, but I cannot get GPRS functioning. I see no activity on the BSC log when attempting GPRS attach using APN openbsc. I also see no traffic between the SGSN and the BSC (listening with tshark on 127.0.0.1:23000). Any help is appreciated. I am currently using osmo-trx/master, osmo-bsc/jolly/testing, libosmo-abis/jolly/multi-trx, omso-bts/jolly/trx, openggsn/master, and osmo-pcu/master. Best, Omar
Hi Omar, I am trying to do the same thing for a while, but I am not succeeded yet. The hardest is to find the right branch of every piece of software. The wiki is quite outdated, and no USRP related man page was ever created. The jolly branches are also quite old, a lot of development happened, so I would not suggest to use them. Tom suggested to me that I should try fairwaves/master branch of OpenBSC, Osmo-BTS and Osmo-TRX (pretty much everything that has a fairwaves/master branch) to use with USRP devices. I also have a B200 by the way. With this at least I was able to build a fairly recent version that starts up and actually transmits, I think the PCU was not able to talk with the SGSN (which is part of OpenBSC), so probably I need some more fine tuning. There was a UHD driver problem a few months back, so the UHD driver version is also important. This problem affected OpenBTS, I don't know what is the recommended UHD version, maybe Tom will come in and advise us something. Just to notify the list, I am more than happy to create a new Wiki page in the minute I find a working configuration. At least I am not alone with this anymore :-) Regards, Csaba ----- Eredeti üzenet ----- Feladó: "OMAR RAMADAN" <omar.ramadan@berkeley.edu> Címzett: openbsc@lists.osmocom.org Elküldött üzenetek: Péntek, 2015.

Sipos, Omar, Yes, 'fariwaves/master' is almost always the best choice if you're using USRP or UmTRX. The wiki should be updated to reflect that - your help would be greatly appreciated here. You may also find documentation at umtrx.org useful, even though it's focused on UmTRX and not USRP. Regarding GPRS issues I hope Ivan will be able to comment. Please excuse typos.

Dear Alexander, Will do the wiki update as soon as I have (at least a more or less) working setup. A single question: can you comment on the non-connecting PCU socket? To my best understanding, this connection is a normal UNIX socket, and the PCU and the SGSN should find each other if they compiled in a given order to meet some dependency. Is there any specific flag we need to enable during compiling any of the related software? (Osmo-BTS, PCU, OpenBSC, etc.) Regards, Csaba ----- Eredeti üzenet ----- Feladó: "Alexander Chemeris" <alexander.chemeris@gmail.com> Címzett: "Sipos Csaba" <sipos.csaba@kvk.uni-obuda.hu> Másolatot kap: "OpenBSC Mailing List" <openbsc@lists.osmocom.org>, "OMAR RAMADAN" <omar.ramadan@berkeley.edu> Elküldött üzenetek: Péntek, 2015.

Hi Sipos, Omar, You should use the following branches: libosmocore branch master libosmo-abis branch master osmo-trx branch fairwaves/master osmo-bts branch fairwaves/master ( use ./configure --enable-trx) openbsc branch fairwaves/master osmo-pcu branch master (use ./configure --enable-sysmocom-bts ) openggsn branch master Also if you use the same machine for sgsn, bts and pcu, you should change openbsc.cfg, instead of: gprs nsvc 0 local udp port 23000 gprs nsvc 0 remote udp port 23000 use different ports, for example: gprs nsvc 0 local udp port 5948 gprs nsvc 0 remote udp port 23000 -- Regards, Ivan Kluchnikov. http://fairwaves.ru

libosmocore branch master
libosmo-abis branch master
osmo-trx branch fairwaves/master
osmo-bts branch fairwaves/master ( use ./configure --enable-trx)
openbsc branch fairwaves/master

openggsn branch master
Also if you use the same machine for sgsn, bts and pcu, you should change openbsc.cfg, instead of: gprs nsvc 0 local udp port 23000 gprs nsvc 0 remote udp port 23000 use different ports, for example: gprs nsvc 0 local udp port 5948 gprs nsvc 0 remote udp port 23000

I will try to give you as many feedback as possible. :-) I finally have a more or less working setup. At least there is no crash whatsoever, and the PS domain is working, the UE can attach, activate PDP, transfer data to some extent. For example when i tried to ping the TUN interface, I got 2500-2600ms latency. I tried with both the "A" and the "B" algorithm, it was pretty much the same. I seen a lot of PRACH happening, so I checked the radio parameters: With power=0 and rxgain=15 at ARFCN=885 I got -55dBm RSSI at the UE, and -40 -45dBm RSSI at the BTS. The freqency I use is completely clean, and I use a proper duplexer and an omni antenna. The UE is 2 meters a way, line of site. The SNR measured by the UE is around 20-22 dB in DL direction. The ms-power-loop was set to -15, the max MS power was 20dBm. So the RF part seems correct, and still I got these very high latencies. In comparison with OpenBTS and the same setup, I got around 350-500ms latency with multislot. Maybe the UE goes to IDLE too fast for a ping test?

Hi Sipos, A couple general notes with a remark that I haven't touched the GPRS code for a long while: Power control loop for GPRS is separate from the power loop for the CS domain. IIRC it should be done in PCU, but it's not implemented yet. So right now IIRC the MS should be in an open loop power control mode, deducing its Tx power from its Rx level. I can't comment on the dB values, because I've never used B200. But if you use fairwaves/master branch, it can detect clipping when the signal is of too high power (check the logs). You can also enable debug logging level for osmo-trx to assess demodulation quality visually (there should be few to none '-' in the demodulated bursts). If you see the demodulation is perfect, but the issue is still there - you have to dig the layers upwards. On Sun, Jul 26, 2015 at 2:02 PM, Sipos Csaba <sipos.csaba@kvk.uni-obuda.hu> wrote:

That's normal in the default case, since the MS will have to issue a RACH to get an uplink TBF for the response. You can allow to keep the PACCH open for a longer time by configuring pcu dl-tbf-idle-time 2000 This keeps the DL TBF open for the time given (in ms) by periodically sending LLC dummy commands.

UL is one PDCH in general with either algorithm. For DL: Algo B (multislot) if you have >1 PDCH. In branch jerlbeck/master (which will be merged to master soon) you can also use 'alloc-algorithm dynamic' which will provide a higher DL throughput if there are only a few connections and will move over to algo A on higher usage.

Hi Sipos,
Osmo-TRX master branch should be also fine for gprs, you can use it. Thank you for report, we will fix osmo-trx fairwaves/master branch soon.
who is the maintainer of the osmo-trx branch? Why is there a need for a vendor branch? holger

I'm clearly behind on this, and the reason for many patches not being in master is lack of time for testing and patch review on my part. More generally, though, there is a vendor branch for Fairwaves specific changes that may or may not have been tested against other use cases (e.g. OpenBTS support). Similarly, are there reasons for vendor branches for osmo-bts and openbsc? I think the concept of vendor branches is ok so long as there is a path toward merging into master. -TT

A kind reminder that we would appreciate if you could review/merge them. :) -- Regards, Alexander Chemeris. CEO, Fairwaves, Inc. https://fairwaves.co

Thomas is the maintainer of the 'master'. As he explained, most of the fairwaves/maser branch there are patches pending his review plus a couple patches specific to the way we package software for the use in UmSITEs. -- Regards, Alexander Chemeris. CEO, Fairwaves, Inc. https://fairwaves.co

Btw, I wanted to discuss the best way to move this forward. We found that osmo-trx crashes with "illegal instruction" if we build on Core i7, but run on Atom even if we disable automatic CPU detection and manually specify HAVE_SSE3. We had to remove "-march=native" to make it work. But it seems that unconditionally removing it breaks the build with automatic CPU detection enabled. What do you think is the best way to get it working in both situations? -- Regards, Alexander Chemeris. CEO, Fairwaves, Inc. https://fairwaves.co
