BladeRF RX overrun

Hey all! Currently I am trying to make bladeRF work with OpenAirInterface - LTE with TDD settings however I am running into RX Overrun issue as follows:

It goes on like this until it crashes due to too many samples.

I have been stuck on this for weeks, any help and leads would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Are you in a Virtual Machine? If so, please let me know what software and is XHCI support enabled?
Some RX overruns are expected.

Hello Robert,
No I am not using any Virtual Machine. I am trying this on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS OS.

[violetcherry]

Try reducing sample rate - overruns can occur if sampling rate is set higher than hardware can handle.drift hunters

The RX Overrun issue you are encountering with the bladeRF while using OpenAirInterface (OAI) for LTE with TDD settings indicates that the receiver is unable to process the incoming data at the rate it is being received. This can happen when the processing resources are insufficient or when there are delays in the processing chain. Run 3

hello,

i am experiencing exact the same problem as yours. Do u find any solutions yet? thanks so much!
