Hi Alex,

I have been chasing this up with Quectel and they tell me this the

So the image shows the value for 

'0' if -140 dbm
...
'95' if dbm is -46 to -45
etc.

 (what is actually sent over AT commands) is never negative. 
Isn't the image supporting my earlier assertion:  'AT commands do not 
have a concept of negative numbers'?


oFono exposes the  value from 3GPP:

"byte ReferenceSignalReceivedPower [optional, lte]

    Contains the Reference Signal Received Power.  Valid range of 
values
    is 0-97. Refer to  in 27.007, Section 8.69 for more 
details.

Thanks... will go back to Quectel... (!)

Cheers,

Alex

Hi all,

I'm doing a bit of work with Ofono again, extending support for a 
Quectel EG91 - handling additional cell strength information which 
seems necessary for LTE.


I'm using Quectel's AT+QCOPS which is returning some negative signal 
strengths and after some investigation I've spotted that 
gatresult::g_at_result_iter_next_number() doesn't handle negative 
numbers.


AT commands do not have a concept of negative numbers.  v.250 Section 
5.3.1:
 may be a string of one or more characters from "0" through 
"9" representing a decimal
integer value. Commands that expect a  are noted in the 
description of the command (see

clause 6).

I don't recall any other vendor using negative values in AT commands.

If you want to add a negative number parser to GAtChat, then please 
make it a separate method, so that it is very clear that a vendor 
'extension' is being worked around.

This is quite interesting as aside from the parsing, Ofono seems to rely 
on negative numbers being errors (e.g. src/netmon.c)


What are your thoughts? This being correct, one would have thought other 
modem manufacturers would report in the same manner.


Cheers,

Alex
