      With the benefit of previous work, plus MCCS-1380 which provided longer test stimuli (through looping) we were able to exercise the simulator with out-of-order and dropped packets. This demonstrated the correct performance of the beamformer chain under these conditions. (See MCCS-1381)

      A special case causing dropped packets to be corrected under MCCS-1556 will be taken up in a future sprint.

    Description

      Clone for PI19 to carry over any remaining work on error detection / prevention on the beamformer chain. Testing to show that data corruption through missing / out-of-order packets is prevented, and avoid regression, should be in place. Work on the beamformer simulator will improve test quality but should be conducted separately from the missing-packet work.

      1. Current beamformer implementation does not check for missing packets. If a packet is dropped in the beamforming chain, packet sequence is disrupted and the resulting packets sent to CSP are improperly labelled. Out-of-order packets also produce invalid packets to CSP. A missing packet is a very rare evenience and is negligible with only a single station operating as a test facility, but must be detected and flagged in a system composed of thousands of TPM. The modification affects the final stage of the station beamformer, which packs 8 TPM beamforming packets into 1 CSP packet. Packets must be assembled in the correct order, and missing packets must be substituted with a section of samples marked as invalid.
