libLTE
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
libLTE is a free and open-source LTE library for SDR UE and eNodeB. The library does not rely on any external dependencies or frameworks.
|
|
|
|
The license is LGPLv3.
|
|
|
|
The project contains a set of Python tools for the automatic code generation of modules for popular SDR frameworks, including GNURadio, ALOE++, IRIS, and OSSIE. These tools are easy to use and adapt for generating targets for specific platforms or frameworks.
|
|
|
|
Current Status
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
The following parts are available:
|
|
* Physical Channels: PBCH, PCFICH, PDCCH, PHICH, PDSCH eNodeB and UE side
|
|
* Synchronization and CFO estimation/correction
|
|
* Equalization
|
|
* UE receiver (MIB + SIB1 decoding) verified with live LTE signals
|
|
|
|
Hardware
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
The library currently uses Ettus Universal Hardware Driver (UHD). Thus, any hardware supported by UHD can be used. There is no sampling rate conversion, therefore the hardware should support 30.72 MHz clock in order to work correctly with LTE sampling frequencies and decode signals from live LTE base stations. We are using the B210 USRP.

Download & Install Instructions
|
|
=================================
|
|
|
|
* Requirements: Currently, the library requires libfftw, although we plan make this dependency optional in the future. Also, QT4 and Qwt6 are needed for graphics visualization. Compilation is possible without QT4, although graphics will be disabled.
|
|
|
|
To install QT4, Qwt6 and libfftw use your distribution packet management system, for instance in ubuntu you can run: `sudo apt-get install libfftw3-dev libqwt-dev libqt4-dev` to install all requirements.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Finally, to download and build libLTE, just run:
|
|
```
|
|
git clone https://github.com/ismagom/libLTE.git
|
|
cd libLTE
|
|
mkdir build
|
|
cd build
|
|
cmake ../
|
|
make
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The library can also be installed using the command ```sudo make install```.
|
|
|
|
PHY Examples
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
* eNodeB and UE PBCH example
|
|
|
|
Setup one or two computers connected to two USRP or UHD-compatible hardware. From the eNodeB, type
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
lte/phy/examples/pdsch_enodeb -f [frequency_in_Hz] -c [cell_id] [-a [UHD args]] [-h for more commands]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
From the UE, type
|
|
```
|
|
lte/phy/examples/pdsch_ue -f [frequency_in_Hz] [-a [UHD args]] [-h for more commands]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And the output should look something like the following video. In this example, we removed the transmitter and receiver antennas in the middle of the demonstration, showing how reception is still possible (despite with some erros).

|
|
|
|
|
|
The SIB1 message is decoded and shown on the console, for example:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Decoded SIB1 Message: [40 48 50 03 02 0b 14 4a 30 18 28 20 90 81 84 79 a0 00 ];
