(question) Using the provided AntSDR bin file #14

Closed alphafox02 closed 1 year ago

alphafox02 commented 1 year ago

Looking to test this out on the AntSDR E310 per the application note. I noticed there's a BIN file pre-built. I think the bottom of this page is what I'd aim to use, but with a path which reflects the correct location of the downloaded BIN file.

https://srsran.github.io/zynq_timestamping/bitstream/antsdr_project.html#antsdr-project

Is that correct? Also, is it best to have the most recent image on the AntSDR github page loaded onto the internal SD Card?

Hi @alphafox02,

yes, you can start from an SD card using a recent image from the AntSDR github, and then use the commands on the bottom of the page you're mentioning to overwrite the original BIN with the pre-built file from our release in order to get the FPGA side of our solution. Then you can follow the End-to-End 4G testing with AntSDR appnote or base yourself on the tx-rx counterpart for pluto to get an idea of how to manage your SDR application from the software point of view.

Cheers

Thank you, also noticed (and remembered) that when loading the firmware on the sd card that the BIN file is viewable and replaceable right on the sd card from Linux itself. Easy to swap that way too.
