Delay compensation for UL

Roberto Louro Magueta requested to merge develop-UL-delay into develop

This MR implements delay compensation (time shift) for the UL. This MR has been tested in phy-simulators and with USRPs. The main results, without and with compensation, are as follows:

Phy-simulators: sudo LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./nr_ulsim -n1000 -R106 -r106 -s24 -S24 -m 28

No delay compensation:

(delay = 0) Eff Throughput 94.70
(delay = 2) Eff Throughput 91.55
(delay = 4) Eff Throughput 63.95
(delay = 6) Eff Throughput 50.00

With delay compensation:

(delay = 0) Eff Throughput 94.55
(delay = 2) Eff Throughput 93.70
(delay = 4) Eff Throughput 93.70
(delay = 6) Eff Throughput 93.95

OAI-gNB-USRP <---> COTS UE, 2-layers UL

  • We can see rotations in the ch (estimated channel) when no delay compensation is done, and an almost constant channel, when delay compensation is done, ch_delay_comp.
