Update MCS selection for retransmission

In 3GPP TS 44.060 the selection of MCS for retransmissions is defined as
separate tables (8.1.1.1 and 8.1.1.2) depending on the value of
resegmentation bit (which is opposite to the way EGPRS_ARQ are defined
in the source code). Let's follow the same idea and explicitly check for
resegmentation bit value and use separate tables. This also makes it
easier to add proper support for special cases (MCS-6-9 and MCS-5-7) and
padding in future independently for different ARQ types. The code is
also moved to c to avoid unnecessary conversions to and from cpp class.

osmo-pcu - Osmocom Packet Control Unit

This repository contains a C/C++-language implementation of a GPRS Packet Control Unit, as specified by ETSI/3GPP. It is part of the Osmocom Open Source Mobile Communications project.

The Packet Control Unit is terminating the Layer 2 (RLC/MAC) of the GPRS radio interface and adapting it to the Gb Interface (BSSGP+NS Protocol) towards the SGSN.

The PCU interfaces with the physical layer of the radio interface. OsmoPCU is typically used co-located with the BTS, specifically OsmoBTS. For legacy BTSs that run proprietary sotware without an interface to OsmoPCU, you may also co-locate it with the BSC, specifically OsmoBSC

Homepage

The official homepage of the project is https://osmocom.org/projects/osmopcu/wiki/OsmoPCU

GIT Repository

You can clone from the official osmo-pcu.git repository using

git clone git://git.osmocom.org/osmo-pcu.git

There is a cgit interface at http://git.osmocom.org/osmo-pcu/

Documentation

We provide a user manual as well as a vty reference manual

Please note that a lot of the PCU configuration actually happens inside the BSC, which passes this configuration via A-bis OML to the BTS, which then in turn passes it via the PCU socket into OsmoPCU.
