One super power of the openwifi platform is "**Full Duplex**" which means that openwifi baseband can receive its own TX signal. Just like a radar! This brings a unique capability of "**joint radar and communication**" to openwifi. For instance, put two directional antennas to openwifi TX and RX, and the **CSI** (Channel State Information) of the self-TX signal will refect the change of the target object.

|
## Quick start
|
|
- Power on the SDR board.
|
|
- Connect a computer to the SDR board via Ethernet cable. The computer should have static IP 192.168.10.1. Open a terminal on the computer, and then in the terminal:
|
|
```
|
|
ssh root@192.168.10.122
|
|
(password: openwifi)
|
|
```
|
|
- On computer, build the latest driver and FPGA package after clone/update openwifi and openwifi-hw-img repository:
|
|
```
|
|
export XILINX_DIR=your_Xilinx_install_directory
|
|
(Example: export XILINX_DIR=/opt/Xilinx. The Xilinx directory should include sth like: Downloads, Vitis, etc.)
|
|
export OPENWIFI_HW_IMG_DIR=your_openwifi-hw-img_directory
|
|
(The directory where you get the open-sdr/openwifi-hw-img repo via git clone)
|
|
export BOARD_NAME=your_board_name
|
|
(Check the BOARD_NAME definitions in README)
|
|
|
|
cd openwifi/user_space
|
|
./drv_and_fpga_package_gen.sh $OPENWIFI_HW_IMG_DIR $XILINX_DIR $BOARD_NAME
|
|
scp drv_and_fpga.tar.gz root@192.168.10.122:openwifi/
|
|
scp ./side_ch_ctl_src/side_ch_ctl.c root@192.168.10.122:openwifi/
|
|
scp ./inject_80211/* root@192.168.10.122:openwifi/inject_80211/
|
|
```
|
|
- On SDR board (/root/openwifi directory):
|
|
```
|
|
cd /root/openwifi/
|
|
./wgd.sh drv_and_fpga.tar.gz
|
|
./monitor_ch.sh sdr0 1
|
|
insmod ./drv_and_fpga/side_ch.ko
|
|
gcc -o side_ch_ctl side_ch_ctl.c
|
|
./side_ch_ctl wh1h4001
|
|
./side_ch_ctl wh7h4433225a
|
|
(Above two commands ensure receiving CSI only from XX:XX:44:33:22:5a, which will be set by our own packet injector later)
|
|
./sdrctl dev sdr0 set reg xpu 1 1
|
|
(Above unmute the baseband self-receiving to receive openwifi own TX signal/packet)
|
|
./side_ch_ctl g0
|
|
```
|
|
- Open another ssh session on SDR board:
|
|
```
|
|
cd /root/openwifi/inject_80211
|
|
make
|
|
./inject_80211 -m g -r 4 -t d -e 0 -b 5a -n 99999999 -s 20 -d 1000 sdr0
|
|
|
|
(Above command injects the 802.11a/g packet, for 802.11n packet please use:
|
|
./inject_80211 -m n -r 4 -t d -e 8 -b 5a -n 99999999 -s 20 -d 1000 sdr0)
|
|
```
|
|
- Now you should see the increasing numbers in the previous ssh terminal of the SDR board.
|
|
- On your computer (NOT ssh session!), run:
|
|
```
|
|
cd openwifi/user_space/side_ch_ctl_src
|
|
python3 side_info_display.py 8 waterfall
|
|
```
|
|
The python script needs "matplotlib.pyplot" and "numpy" packages installed. Now you should see figures showing run-time **CSI**, **CSI waterfall**, **Equalizer out** and **frequency offset**. The following photo shows the CSI change in the waterfall plot when I left my seat in front of two directional antennas (Tx/Rx antenna).

|
|
|
|
While running, all CSI data is also stored into a file **side_info.txt**. A matlab script **test_side_info_file_display.m** is offered to help you do CSI analysis offline. In this case, run **test_side_info_file_display** in Matlab.
|
|

|
|
|
|
Please learn the python and Matlab script for CSI data structure per packet according to your requirement.
|
|
|
|
Do read the [normal CSI app note](csi.md) to understand the basic implementation architecture.
