Reference
Use this section to look up parameters, commands, and diagnostic procedures. If you are deploying OpenISAC for the first time, begin with Getting Started. Return here when you need to change a YAML field, launch a helper tool, or diagnose a runtime problem.
Runtime configuration
Section titled “Runtime configuration”- BS YAML Reference covers radio, downlink, uplink, sensing, network-output, and logging settings for the BS.
- UE YAML Reference covers reception, synchronization tracking, uplink, bistatic sensing, and output settings for the UE.
Both programs read their YAML file from the current working directory and do not hot-reload it. Restart the corresponding backend after changing a runtime configuration.
Tools and diagnostics
Section titled “Tools and diagnostics”- Scripts and Tools groups sensing viewers, timing control, CPU isolation, web configuration, and documentation commands by task.
- Troubleshooting provides symptom-oriented checks for builds, YAML loading, USRP streaming, communication decoding, sensing output, and frontend connectivity.
Recommended lookup workflow
Section titled “Recommended lookup workflow”- Confirm whether you are editing
BS.yamlorUE.yaml. - Search for the full YAML path, such as
uplink.enabledornetwork_output.control_port. - Treat a typical value as guidance. The selected
config/*.yamlpreset and your runtime scenario remain authoritative. - When changing frame structure, duplex mode, frequency, or resource mapping, verify the corresponding BS and UE settings together.
