Generate packet capture file for O-RAN Fronthaul with 7.2x Split in few clicks:
Description:
Welcome to the ultimate tool for generating O-RAN Fronthaul 7.2x split traffic effortlessly. Our platform is designed to generate packet capture (PCAP) for Distributed Unit (DU) communications that are ORAN 7.2x compliant for the control and user plane messages. By simply providing your C and U plane messages inputs, directly from your browser and clicking Generate PCAP, our intuative interface initiate a packet capture process tailored to your spacified inputs.
Steps to Generate ORAN Fronthaul 7.2x PCAP file:
-
Modulation and Bandwidth Parameters:
- Configure the Test Model, Channel Bandwidth, and Subcarrier Spacing settings.
-
eCPRI and ORAN Configuration:
- Enter values for Distributed Unit Identifiers, Band and Sector Identifiers, and Component Carrier Identifiers.
-
Choose the U-plane Compression Method.
- Set the IQ Samples Bit-width before or without Compression.
- Specify the Compressed IQ Samples Bit-width.
-
C-plane Configuration:
- Define the C-plane Message Section Type.

Users can input specific configurations such as the O-RAN model test configuration, including parameters like NR-FR1-TM1.1 or (Full band, uniform QPSK), channel bandwidth, subcarrier spacing, and compression methods. Additionally, detailed settings for eCPRI configurations such as distributed unit identifiers, band and sector identifiers, and component carrier identifiers can be specified.
Once inputs are set, clicking 'Generate PCAP' initiates the capture process, allowing users to obtain comprehensive pcap files tailored to their exact testing requirements.
Description of Each Input Parameter
Parameter: Test Model
Description: Specifies the 5G New Radio (NR) test model in Frequency Range 1 (FR1) with full band coverage using uniform Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) modulation.
Example: NR-FR1-TM1.1 (QPSK)
Parameter: Channel Bandwidth (MHz)
Description: Sets the frequency range allocated to the communication channel bandwidth.
Example: 5MHz
Parameter: Subcarrier Spacing
Description: Defines the frequency spacing between adjacent subcarriers for data transmission.
Example: 30kHz
Parameter: File Name
Description: File name of PCAP (without .pcap extension).
Example: ORANA_7_2x
Parameter: U-plane Compression Method
Description: Utilizes compression to reduce data size in the user plane, specifies the resolution of In-phase and Quadrature-phase samples before and after compression.
Example: BFP (Block Floating Point)
Parameter: C-plane Message
Description: Defines the type of signaling and control information in the control plane, ensuring compatibility and proper interpretation of control information. Identifies the distributed unit within the network setup, allowing differentiation between multiple units. Specifies the specific band and sector within the network deployment, aiding in management and organization of different bands and sectors. Identifies the component carrier within the network configuration, facilitating management of multiple carriers. Specifies the spatial stream used in the network configuration.
Example: Section Type: 1, Distributed Unit Identifiers: 0, Band and Sector Identifiers: 0, Component Carrier Identifiers: 0, Spatial Stream Identifiers: 0
