Description

In the current code, when EDGE demodulator is enabled, OsmoTRX is trying to detect
each normal burst as EDGE burst first, and fall-backs to GSM if detection is failed.

Transceiver::pullRadioVector():
  ...
  /* Set time and determine correlation type */
  GSM::Time time = radio_burst->getTime();
  CorrType type = expectedCorrType(time, chan);

  /* Enable 8-PSK burst detection if EDGE is enabled */
  if (mEdge && (type == TSC))
    type = EDGE;
  ...

Detection of EDGE bursts only makes sense on PDCH channel combinations,
and (probably, to be clarified) on TCH combinations that can be combined
with PDCH, i.e. dynamic time-slots.

ACK.

I think the channel combination should be switched/changed when the dyn TS changes?
If not, then that's probably a BTS bug?

May be useful for optimization purposes, here's a perf output of a osmo-trx-uhd with EDGE network enabled (percentatge is absolute percentatge of samples):
