use Quectel as UE for a system setup following tutorial KPM xApp on FlexRIC

[pchat-imm]

I have successfully run this tutorial on deployed KPM xApp on FlexRIC.
The system has

• open5GS as core (from docker of srsRAN_Project)
• FlexRIC as RIC
• srsRAN_Project use for simulating gNB
• srsRAN_4G uses for simulating srsUE.
  

I wonder that if I want to use Quectel RM510Q-GL as a UE. In this setup, Which files need to configuration? On gNB or on Open5GS.

Also, I only has bladeRF A4, which I successfully run 4G O-RAN by srsRAN_4G. But I cannot make it for 5G. So right now I do not have gNB for srsRAN_Project.

Thank you very much.

You need to run the gNB with an USRP. Basically, you need to follow this tutorial: https://docs.srsran.com/projects/project/en/latest/tutorials/source/cotsUE/source/index.html and enable the E2 agent in the gNB config file.

Currently, there is no support for bladeRF boards, only the USRP family.

Do I understand correctly that Quectel need SDR to connect to the network?

[pgawlowicz]

Yes, USRP SDR or a RU. Check here; https://docs.srsran.com/projects/project/en/latest/tutorials/source/oranRU/source/hw_integration.html
