[[Include(WikiToC)]] === Service: mmWave Array Management This service is used to manage various (IBM PAAM, Sivers 60 GHz and Itnerdigital MHU) mmWave arrays. Array parameters: * Name * Number of antenna elements * TX/RX * Polarization * Number of ICs * ==== Connect Connect to the array and initialize it. {{{ Connect to the array Device name; choices are: ['rfdev4-in1.sb1.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev4-in2.sb1.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev2-1.sb2.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev2-2.sb2.cosmos-lab.org'] PAAM ICs; choices are: ['all', '0', '1', '2', '3'] (default=all) Number of Antenna Elements; 1 to 16 (default=1) TX/RX Mode Selection! Should be either tx (transmit) or rx (receive) (default=tx) Polarization! Should be either h (horizontal) or v (vertical) (default=v) Verification (boolean flag); Should be true/false (default=False) }}} ==== Disconnect Disconnect the array from the control {{{ Disconnect from the array Device name; choices are: ['rfdev4-in1.sb1.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev4-in2.sb1.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev2-1.sb2.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev2-2.sb2.cosmos-lab.org'] }}} ==== Steer {{{ Steer the array beam Device name; choices are: ['rfdev4-in1.sb1.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev4-in2.sb1.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev2-1.sb2.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev2-2.sb2.cosmos-lab.org'] Theta (Beam) Angle! Integer in range -60 to 60 (default=10) Phi (Beam) Angle! Integer in range -10 to 10 (default=10) }}} ==== Status {{{ Get the status of the array Device name; choices are: ['rfdev4-in1.sb1.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev4-in2.sb1.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev2-1.sb2.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev2-2.sb2.cosmos-lab.org'] }}} ==== Cleanup {{{ Cleanup and shutdown the array Device name; choices are: ['rfdev4-in1.sb1.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev4-in2.sb1.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev2-1.sb2.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev2-2.sb2.cosmos-lab.org'] }}} ==== Configure {{{ Configure the array Device name; choices are: ['rfdev4-in1.sb1.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev4-in2.sb1.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev2-1.sb2.cosmos-lab.org', 'rfdev2-2.sb2.cosmos-lab.org'] PAAM ICs; choices are: ['all', '0', '1', '2', '3'] (default=all) Number of Antenna Elements; 1 to 16 (default=1) TX/RX Mode Selection!
