% Transmitting and Receiving Data using WARPLab with Automatic Gain Control
% (SISO Configuration)
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% To run this M-code the boards must be programmed with the
% 4x4 MIMO 5.x version of WARPLab bitstream

% Before looking at this code we recommend getting familiar with the
% warplab_siso_example_TxRx.m code which doesn't use AGC hence it is easier
% to understand.

% The specific steps implemented in this script are the following

% 0. Initializaton and definition of parameters
% 1. Generate a vector of samples to transmit and send the samples to the 
% WARP board (Sample Frequency is 40MHz)
% 2. Prepare WARP boards for transmission and reception and send trigger to 
% start transmission and reception (trigger is the SYNC packet)
% 3. Read the received samples from the WARP board
% 4. Read values related to AGC
% 5. Reset and disable the boards
% 6. Plot the transmitted and received data and close sockets

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

warplab_defines

% Create Socket handles and intialize nodes
[socketHandles, packetNum] = warplab_initialize;

% Separate the socket handles for easier access
% The first socket handle is always the magic SYNC
% The rest of the handles are the handles to the WARP nodes
udp_Sync = socketHandles(1);
udp_node1 = socketHandles(2);
udp_node2 = socketHandles(3);

% Define WARPLab parameters. 
% For this experiment node 1 will be set as the transmitter and node 
% 2 will be set as the receiver (this is done later in the code), hence, 
% there is no need to define receive gains for node 1 and there is no
% need to define transmitter gains for node 2.
TxDelay = 0; % Number of noise samples per Rx capture. In [0:2^14]
TxLength = 2^14-1; % Length of transmission. In [0:2^14-1-TxDelay]
CarrierChannel = 12; % Channel in the 2.4 GHz band. In [1:14]
Node1_Radio2_TxGain_BB = 1; % Tx Baseband Gain. In [0:3]
Node1_Radio2_TxGain_RF = 25; % Tx RF Gain. In [0:63]
TxMode = 0; % Transmission mode. In [0:1] 
            % 0: Single Transmission 
            % 1: Continuous Transmission. Tx board will continue 
            % transmitting the vector of samples until the user manually
            % disables the transmitter. 
Node2_MGC_AGC_Select = 1;   % Set MGC_AGC_Select=1 to enable Automatic Gain Control (AGC). 
                            % Set MGC_AGC_Select=0 to enable Manual Gain Control (MGC).
                            % By default, the nodes are set to MGC.
Node2_TargetdBmAGC = -10; % AGC Target dBm. A larger target value will 
                          % result in larger Rx gains set by AGC. This is
                          % the value we tune if AGC is not setting gains
                          % correctly.
Node2_NoiseEstdBmAGC = -95; % Noise power in dBm. -95dBm is a reasonable 
            % value for wireless. If AGC is not setting gains correctly
            % this value may need to be modified. Usually we first try to
            % change the TargetdBmAGC  before changing the NoiseEstdBmAGC 
Node2_Thresh1 = -90; 
Node2_Thresh2 = -53;
Node2_Thresh3 = -43;
% Change format of Thresholds so they can be correctly understood by
% the FPGA:
Node_2Thresholds = uint32(Node2_Thresh3+2^8)*2^16+uint32(Node2_Thresh2+2^8)*2^8+uint32(Node2_Thresh1+2^8);
% The three thresholds above are used to set the Rx RF gain. If the RSSI in
% dBm of the received signal is less than -90 then the AGC declares the
% signal to be too low and quits. If the RSSI in dBm of the received signal
% is between -53 and -90 then the AGC selects the largest RF gain : 3. If 
% the RSSI dBm is between -43 and -53 then the AGC sets medium RF gain : 2. If
% the RSSI dBm is larger than -43 then the AGC sets low RF gain :1.
% If AGC is no setting gains correctly then these three thresholds may need
% to be modified. Usually we first try to change the TargetdBmAGC  before
% changing the Thresholds.
% Remember there are 3 possible Rx RF gains: 1,2,3. Each step corresponds
% to 15dB: Changing the gain from 2 to 3 increases the Rx gain by 15 dB.
Node2_AGCTrigger_nsamps_delay = 50; % The AGC core should not be started before the 
% signal arrives. If TxDelay=0 then Tx and Rx should start at exactly the
% same time (upon reception of magic sync) however, because of jitter in
% reception of the magic sync, it may happed that the Rx gets the magic
% sync before the Tx. If this is the case then the AGC will set wrong gains
% because AGC will use RSSI values that are measured before reception of the signal.
% To avoid this we can delay the trigger of the AGC core by 
% Node2_AGCTrigger_nsamps_delay samples relative to the reception of the
% magic sync. We recommend to set this value between 0 and 50 samples. We
% have not observed magic sync jitters greater than 50 samples.
Node2_Enable_DCOffset_Correction = 1; % Enable/disable correction of DC Offsets (DCO). 
% Node2_Enable_DCOffset_Correction = 0; Disable correction of DC Offsets at
% AGC
% Node2_Enable_DCOffset_Correction = 1; Enable correction of DC Offsets at
% AGC
% Change of Rx gains by AGC may result in DC offsets. The AGC can correct
% these offsets but the user must be very careful on the choice of preamble
% used for AGC. For DCO correction at AGC to work properly the first 320
% samples must correspond to a periodic signal with an average (DC) of zero
% over 32 consecutive samples, this will generate the right signal required
% by AGC DCO correction for a sampling frequency of 40 MHz. AGC DCO
% correction can be disabled by setting Node2_Enable_DCOffset_Correction=0,
% in this case there is no requirement for the periodicity of the
% preamble used for AGC.

% NOTES ON AGC: 
% 1.    As soon as AGC is triggered, it takes the AGC core
% approximately 250 samples (at 40MHz sampling frequency) to set gains. If
% DCO correction at AGC is enabled it takes the AGC an extra 32 samples to
% filter DCO. This means that the first 250 samples received (282 when using DCO
% correction) may not contain useful data because during reception of these
% samples Rx gains (and DCO correction) were not set correctly. 
% 2.     The first 250 samples must be representative of the rest of signal
% being transmitted (similar bandwidth and amplitude), otherwise the gains 
% set by the AGC will work for the first 250 samples but will be wrong 
% (causing saturation or underflow) for the rest of the signal.

% Download the WARPLab parameters to the WARP nodes. 
% The nodes store the TxDelay, TxLength, and TxMode parameters in 
% registers defined in the WARPLab sysgen model. The nodes set radio 
% related parameters CarrierChannel, TxGains, and RxGains, using the 
% radio controller functions.

% The TxDelay, TxLength, and TxMode parameters need to be known at the transmitter;
% the receiver doesn't require knowledge of these parameters (the receiver
% will always capture 2^14 samples). For this exercise node 1 will be set as
% the transmitter (this is done later in the code). Since TxDelay, TxLength and
% TxMode are only required at the transmitter we download the TxDelay, TxLength and
% TxMode parameters only to the transmitter node (node 1).
