Re: [USRP-users] USRP B-Series Issue with USB LTE Adapter Connected

2018-06-26 Thread Michael West via USRP-users
1.  Multiple USB transfers are queued by UHD and they pull the data into
host memory as quick as they can.  The transfers are re-queued when the
data is retrieved by the application calling recv().  Overruns occur when
all transfers are complete, data is queued in the memory, and the
application fails to call recv() quick enough to retrieve the data and
re-queue the transfers.  You can increase the number of transfers by
setting the num_recv_frames in the device args.  I believe the default is
32, but we sometimes recommend setting it much higher (like 256 or 512).
But more buffering will not help if the application cannot keep up with the
rate.  If you can live with lower resolution, you can try using sc8
samples.  That will cut the bandwidth on the USB transport in half.
2.  The recv timeout is the maximum time to wait for the requested data to
arrive.  It is mainly a function of sample rate and the number of samples
requested in the recv() call.  I would not expect changing it to have much
of an effect for the use case you describe.  For best performance, the
number of samples requested should be aligned to the maximum number of
samples per frame and the timeout should be set to the number of samples
divided by the sample rate plus some margin.  The benchmark_rate example
included with UHD is a good reference for sizing the buffer and setting the
timeout value for optimal performance.

Michael

2018-06-26 Thread GhostOp14 via USRP-users
I think I found the fix.  On the USB2 bus, backing the USRP sample rate
down from 8 MSPS to 7.4 MSPS made the issue go away.  This is just
speculation on my part, but even though there was no IP-based traffic to
the LTE card, it was still communicating with the host (status, keepalive,
something).  The 8 MSPS rate was probably the max that the setup could
handle and the added LTE USB communications was just enough to disrupt the
USRP recv transfer.  Backing the recv size down gave a little more
bandwidth back to the bus to avoid the overrun.  I wasn't running into it
on the other systems since they had a more capable CPU and had USB3 buses.

So this brings up a couple of questions...
1. When a stream recv is requested is it held in a memory buffer on the
USRP such that the recv call retrieves it in bulk blocks?  Or does it truly
need to be processed by the recv loop within a fixed time window so the
stream can continue to operate on the USRP (hence the overruns)?
2. I had adjusted the recv timeout from the default (0.1) to 0.2 to try to
give it more time for the transfer but that hadn't helped.  Given the
scenario above what does that timeout actually adjust?

I think I have my solution but any insights would be great.

Thanks!

Re: [USRP-users] USRP B-Series Issue with USB LTE Adapter Connected

uhd_usrp_probe seems to come back fine.  It sees the 205.  I'm seeing it on
another separate Pi with a different LTE adapter too so I think it rules
out the instance of both I have being the culprit.

I'll have some time tomorrow night to do some more debugging.  I'll take a
look at the lsusb output.  I also have a B210 I can try and see if I get
the same results.

Do you know if the USB on the USRP uses bulk transfers and is there
anything you're aware of in the USB spec that can interfere with them?

I'll post my results after I give it a shot tomorrow.
