Regression in RA Msg4
We encounter multiple RA attempts that fail at Msg4 in the `RAN-SA-B200-Module-SABOX-Container` CI pipeline (as a consequence of this regression, pipeline often fails on the re-transmission check). After multiple attempts, UE usually succeeds with RA and attach to the gNB. This issue appears in `40 MHz TDD SA with SC-FDMA` and `40 MHz TDD F1+E1 SA` test scenarios. You can see this behavior in the following run: https://jenkins-oai.eurecom.fr/job/RAN-SA-B200-Module-SABOX-Container/6236/ Upon investigation, I suspect that this regression may be related to MR !2876. I tested a modification to reduce the number of max HARQ processes: fd7bbfe93dddedc73832081b3fd81f43583d41f1. ``` diff --git a/common/utils/nr/nr_common.h b/common/utils/nr/nr_common.h index 94102a858f..fcdcab0a62 100644 --- a/common/utils/nr/nr_common.h +++ b/common/utils/nr/nr_common.h @@ -42,7 +42,7 @@ #define MAX_NUM_BEAM_PERIODS 4 #define MAX_BWP_SIZE 275 #define NR_MAX_NUM_BWP 4 -#define NR_MAX_HARQ_PROCESSES 32 +#define NR_MAX_HARQ_PROCESSES 16 #define NR_NB_REG_PER_CCE 6 #define NR_NB_SC_PER_RB 12 ``` With this adjustment, the issue with multiple RA attempts no longer occurs, as seen in run: https://jenkins-oai.eurecom.fr/job/RAN-SA-B200-Module-SABOX-Container/6256/ @Raghavendra, could you please review this issue? @schmidtr, if you have additional insights or observations related to this behavior, please share them.
