11bit RACH is actually being worked on, assigning this to aravind. It might even be complete for some BTS models by now.
#2 Updated by arvind.sirsikar over 3 years ago
Currently it is supported and integration tested for NuRAN LC1.5 and LC1.0. However there is no support for osmo-trx.

Gerrit 5062 has been merged. Have to verify whether 11-bit RACH is supported on sysmoBTS.
#10 Updated by msuraev about 2 years ago
Test with "gprs 11bit_rach_support_for_egprs" failed - seems like smth wasn't merged/missing. See related BTS bug.

The following patch should implement 11-bit RACH support of osmo-bts-trx:

but should be properly tested.

Both osmo-trx and osmo-bts-trx do support 11-bit encoded Access Bursts now. We also have a TTCN-3 test case for that (see BTS_Tests.TC_pcu_ext_rach_content) and it passes. However, all my attempts to test the network with the real phones have been unsuccessful. Unfortunately, I have no time to investigate further now.

OsmoPCU does not seem to handle 11-bit RACH correctly when running with osmo-trx and osmo-bts-trx.
https://gerrit.osmocom.org/c/libosmocore/+/17692/ tests/coding: add 11-bit Access Burst samples from a real phone
https://gerrit.osmocom.org/c/libosmocore/+/17693/ coding: fix bit ordering in 11-bit RACH coding functions
With this fix applied, OsmoPCU works much better when running with osmo-bts-trx.
I also have a (draft) TTCN-3 test case for OsmoPCU.

For some reason, TITAN decodes different extended RA value in IA Rest Octets...
Any help would be appreciated. Wireshark shows that everything is ok (as expected).
