Discussion and technical support related to USRP, UHD, RFNoC
View all threadsHi Alonso,
The not is not connecting to the network, I mean, After it detects the
test network "00101", The phone is just not able to latch on to the network.
It says "Connecting failed". The openbts.config file has the line
Control.OpenRegistration. The signal power as i can see from the spectrum
analyzer is -50dbm with OPenBTS running and around -80 when it is not at the
frequency given by ARFCN number 35(942MHz). Does phone registering to the
network got to do with the external clock to be employed(10 MHz) ??
I would also try with a BlackBerry phone if possible.
Thank you for your reply,
Madhuri

Alright I will give a try with dpsk2 blk. May I know why don't packet
decoder wirte anything to file, is that expected?

Well it looks like there is a frequency offset, and perhaps the receiver
cannot compensate. You can shift this out manually by a tuning offset to
see what happens. You may want to try the dpsk2 version of the blocks
that Tom has put some good work into. You also might want to ask this on
the gnuradio mailing list.

A good recommendation, yes.
I added in the packet encoder/decoder. At encoder I set 2 bits/symbol
for DQPSK. But receiver decoder doesn't write anything to a file. :(
I check encoder and decoder without UHD-USRP2, they are working
fine.
Did you look at the received spectrum, is it what you expected? Do you
see a frequency offset, etc...?

I would try putting a packet encoder before the modulation and a
packet decoder after the demodulation.
Also, are you running the tests over the air or are you using a
cabled setup with attenuators? If it is over the air, what is the
distance between the devices?

Hi lists,
I want to test data transfer between two USRP2 boards. I created
Transmitter and Receiver in GRC (as attached pictures) and using
DQPSK modem scheme. Transmit data is stored in a file and Receive
data is sinked to a file. Transmit data is just repeated binary
pattern (eg. 0xAA). I tried different pattern, most of the patterns
I don't receive at receiver.
Is the GRC design something missing or wrong? Or some parameters
adjustment needs to be done?

Subject: [USRP-users] [ANNOUNCE] OpenBTS on the USRP E100
Message-ID: BANLkTinOsHhCQqaeDtaGQkiys_pFZcf3BQ@mail.gmail.com
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
I recently pushed to the OpenBTS-UHD tree a large collection of
patches that adds 52 MHz transceiver support on the E100 using UHD.
Myself and a few others have been testing this setup over the past two
weeks with encouraging results. Currently, we're able to support two
TCH channels (out of a potential 7) in a stable configuration;
additional channels are limited by embedded processor constraints.
To support more simultaneous calls, we're looking at ARM NEON
optimizations of various operations along with using the available DSP
in the longer term. Contributions from any developers with experience
in this area are certainly welcome.
Among other notable changes are runtime gain settings for the non-52
MHz transceiver, and the previously separate branch for single board
RFX, WBX, and SBX on the USRP1 is merged. Also included are a few bug
fixes and outside patches for long run stability. Additional changes
can be found in the commit log.
The recommended method for installing OpenBTS on the E100 is to use
downloadable images that include all dependencies. OpenBTS itself can
be built natively on the E100. Thanks to the work of Philip Balister
and the OpenEmbedded community, all required image files are available
for download. Instructions for downloading and installation can be
found in the recently updated wiki pages.
http://gnuradio.org/redmine/wiki/gnuradio/OpenBTSUHD
http://gnuradio.org/redmine/wiki/gnuradio/OpenBTSE100
For existing users of OpenBTS-UHD, please note that the default
configure options have changed - UHD is now the default setting. USRP1
users (for single board, WBX, SBX) will need to use the build option,
./configure --with-usrp1

Git:
git clone git://github.com/ttsou/openbts-uhd.git
Alexander Chemeris's sms-split branch is also tracked:
git clone -b sms-split clone git://github.com/ttsou/openbts-uhd.git
And that's all I have. Please post any questions or comments to the
openbts-discuss mailing list. Testing, bug reports, patches, and other
contributions are all very much appreciated. Thanks.

Either the file sink didnt flush to disk or no packets were decoded.
Another thought, you are transmitting full-scale samples into the usrp
sink, so you might be clipping in the DSP. Try transmitting lower
amplitude, like 0.3 for example.

If phones are able to see the BTS signal then the problem may be with the
Asterisk server.
Did you install Asterisk ? If yes then in the same machine or in the
different machine ?
You need to provide the IP address of Asterisk in OpenBTS.config file for
'Asterisk.IP' field.
(127.0.0.1 if installed locally otherwise remote IP address)

Hi Thomas,
I'm using the frequency 955MHz corresponding to the ARFCN number 100
that
i gave in the openBTS.config file. The GSM band is 900. My nokia phones
are
not able to detect the signal.
Today I had a progress in the project. I gave the MCC=001 and MNC=01
in
the openbts.config file (i.e. in the test mode) and one samsung mobile is
able to detect the signal from USRP2 but not able to register to it. Do
you
know the reason why its not registering??
Thank you,
Madhuri.

I dont understnd the port configeration in the OPenBTS.config file. my
USRP2
has an IP address of 192.168.10.2. So pleaseeee accordingly tell me
where
all i need to change the IP addresses in the config file (if any). As
i
have
told USRP2 is properly connected and seen in the spectrometer.
You should not have to change any ports in your config file. The USRP2
connected on 192.168.10.2 is independent of the address and port
settings in OpenBTS.
