Open Testbed Platform for Drones
Run these commands to install Qt and build the agent:
sudo apt-get install qt5-default
sudo apt-get install libqt5serialport5-dev
git clone https://github.com/jmodares/UB-ANC-Agent
mkdir build-agent
cd build-agent
qmake ../UB-ANC-Agent
make -j4
Steps needed for using serial port to connect to USRP E310:
- Run
sudo adduser $USER dialout (screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200) - Logout
- Run
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200
To use USRP E310 folder on your host:
- Run
sudo adduser $USER fuse - Logout
- Run
sshfs -o allow_root root@128.205.187.244:/ usrp-folder-host
Steps needed to port Qt5 to USRP E310:
git clone https://github.com/qtproject/qtbase
cd qtbase
git checkout stable
mkdir build
cd build
../configure {with custom parameters in the folder}
make -j4
make install
Steps needed to port QtSerialPort to USRP E310:
git clone https://github.com/qtproject/qtserialport
cd qtserial
git checkout stable
mkdir build
cd build
/path-to-sdk/sysroots/armv7ahf-vfp-neon-oe-linux-gnueabi/usr/local/Qt-5.6.0/bin/qmake ..
make -j4
make install
Steps for Volk benchmark testing on USRP E310:
pip install numpy
pip install matplotlib
cd /path-to-gnuradio/examples/volk_benchmark
vim volk_test_funcs.py
replace all scipy with numpy
read the README file for doing different tests.
