The hardware-specific parts are -usually provided by vendor-specific or device-specific libraries that are then -handled by some OsmoTRX glue code presenting a unified interface towards the -rest of the code by means of a _RadioDevice_ class. - -The common part includes the core TRX architecture as well as code for -implementing the external interfaces such as the TRX Manager UDP socket, -control, and VTY interfaces. - -The hardware-specific parts include support for driving one particular -implementation of a radio modem. Such a physical layer -implementation can come in many forms. Sometimes it runs on a general -purpose CPU, sometimes on a dedicated ARM core, a dedicated DSP, a -combination of DSP and FPGA. - -Joining the common part with each of the available backends results in a -different binary with different suffix for each backend. For instance, when -OsmoTRX is built with UHD backend, an _osmo-trx-uhd_ binary is generated; when -OsmoTRX is built with LimeSuite backend, an _osmo-trx-lms_ binary is generated. -Build of different backend can be enabled and disabled by means of configure -flags, which can be found in each subsection relative to each backend below. - == `osmo-trx-uhd` for UHD based Transceivers This OsmoTRX model uses _libuhd_ (UHD, USRP Hardware Driver) to drive the |
