Introducing NVIDIA Aerial Research Cloud for Innovations in 5G and 6G

Originally, we had a connection problem with the Quectel UE, and the video is mostly about debugging this problem. However, we also upgrade to the ARC-OTA 1.3 during the session. I hope it helps everyone to upgrade their system. TÜBİTAK-BİLGEM-DebugSession

Thank you Burak !

Hi,

Is there any way of debugging cuBB project using cuda-gdb?

For example,
I can run the cuphycontroller_scf executable without problem. When I run the same script with cuda-gdb I get the error. “:25:48.571150 ERR phy_init 0 [AERIAL_INTERNAL_EVENT] [CUPHY.PTI] CUDA Runtime Error: /home/aerial/cuBB_dev/cuPHY/src/cuphy/cuphy_pti.cpp:35:unspecified launch failure
terminate called after throwing an instance of ‘pd_exc_h’
what(): Invalid pointer: StaticConversion can’t return nullptr”

and vs code notification pops up -var-create:unable to create variable object
Debugger stops in the line 35 cuphy_pti.cpp which allocates memory with
CHECK_CUDA(cudaHostAlloc(&_cuphy_pti_all_stats[k].dh_gpu_start_times,sizeof(uint64_t)*CUPHY_PTI_ACTIVITIES_MAX,cudaHostAllocPortable));

GDB version 12.1
Aerial CUDA-Accelerated RAN version 23.4
ARC 1.3
Server: Dell R750+A100X

Thanks.

Hello,

We have recently set up the Nvidia ARC in our lab and are working on integrating a Radio Unit (RU) based on the AMD RFSoC DFE ZCU670 Targeted Reference Design. The RU is ORAN-compliant, so integration with the ARC should be feasible.

I need to configure the DU in ARC to ensure compatibility with the RU. Specifically, I need to adjust parameters such as the number of antenna layers, the TDM sequence (frame structure), and PRACH settings. However, I am unsure where these configurations are located within the Nvidia ARC software stack.

Additionally, I need to monitor logs related to PUSCH, PDSCH, and PRACH to track communication status. Could anyone guide me on where to access and modify these DU settings and where to find relevant logs?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,
Reza
