sendsms with CLI
by Craig Reading 29 Mar '13

Workaround implemented by Ivan working fine for me now. sendsms is much more reliable. Thanks Ivan >>> We were recently looking into a bug when MT-SMS delivery was interrupted with an unexpected UA frame on L2 layer. We've fixed this in our branch by ignoring a second UA in Established L2 state [1], but the real issue lies in the filler table coupled with delays in processing in higher layers.

Joel, I have played with sendsms and the results seem hit and miss. Sometimes OpenBTS core dumps. After a power cycle of my Nokia MS the first SMS is received OK e.g. sendsms 234100516180928 SabreTek Hello with a Wireshark trace showing: GSM SMS 87 I, N(R)=0, N(S)=1(DTAP) (SMS) CP-DATA (RP) RP-DATA (Network to MS) The next SMS does not get received and I see the following error in the OpenBTS logs: GSML2LAPDm.cpp:925:sendMultiframeData: obj: 0x8b14078 attempt to send DATA on released LAPm channel I would up the log level on GSM L2 and continue investigations here. config Log.Level.GSML2LAPDm.cpp DEBUG PS: You can clear the TMSI table using the following SQL in a file named "TMSI.sql": BEGIN TRANSACTION; DELETE FROM TMSI_TABLE; COMMIT; Then: sqlite3 -init TMSI.sql /etc/OpenBTS/OpenBTS.db ".quit" Regards Craig

After rebuilding everything on a new server with Ubuntu 12.04 my UmTRX test setup now seems to be rock solid. http://genesysguru.com/blog/blog/2013/03/23/umtrx-is-alive-again/ Regards Craig

Tx signal quality improvement
by Alexander Chemeris 19 Mar '13

19 Mar '13

Hi all, I've found an issue with out Tx configuration of LMS which led to constant phase rotation of the transmitted signal. After fixing this issue I get quite better signal quality on transmit side. I advise everyone to update to the most recent UHD on the host side to benefit from this improvement. The reason for the issue was that we used the wrong polarity of TX_ IQ_SEL. As a result, LMS transmitted I from one sample and Q from the other sample. One of the visible results was a huge I/Q imbalance on Tx which made it impossible to use multi-ARFCN configurations. We've solved this issue in software by setting tx_fsinc_polarity and tx_interleave_mode to proper values in LMS configuration registers. Attached screenshots from our E4406A shows signal quality transmitted by OpenBTS we could have now. Tests are performed with "laurent" branch of Fairwaves, compiled with SPS (samples per symbol) set to 4. DC offset and I/Q imbalance are calibrated. screen2.gif, screen3.gif - constellation and phase error when LO leakage is at the center of the signal spectrum, i.e. with no LO offset on Tx. screen4.gif, screen5.gif - constellation and phase error when DC offset is when LO leakage is shifted to 300kHz away from the signal spectrum center, i.e, with 300kHz LO offset on Tx. screen6.gif - phase error per symbol plots for the same settings as with screen4.gif and screen5.gif. When we implement a true GMSK transmitter we should be able to get even better phase noise parameters, meaning excellent downlink signal quality. But even this values are much better than required by the Standard. -- Regards, Alexander Chemeris. CEO, Fairwaves LLC / ООО УмРадио http://fairwaves.ru

No ARP reply

Moved UmTRX on to 192.168.11.10 and get no ARP reply. I'm probably being dumb! Just wanted to make sure there is no issue with subnet mask etc. Regards Craig

UHD dissector for Wireshark
by Alexander Chemeris 19 Mar '13

19 Mar '13

Hi all, I apologize for cross-posting. Please reply to the mailing list you're subscribed to. Ivan Kluchnikov and I wrote a simple dissector for UHD-over-IP control streams. We use it to debug UmTRX which is using UHD under the hood, but I thought it might be useful for a wider USRP community. Patches are as usual welcome.

For Fairwaves 10W base stations we're developing UmSEL, which has channel filter and an additional LNA. For the use without amplifier you don't need any additional filters or LNAs. > 4. What is the main advantage of umtrx compared to usrp by ettus? If you want to use it for GSM, then it's cheaper and gives you dual-channel support. -- Regards, Alexander Chemeris.
