Skywire® Development Kit Using the USB Qualcomm MSM Interface(QMI) Protocol in Linux
■This document describes using the Qualcomm MSM (Mobile Station Modems) Interface (QMI) protocol to interface a Skywire® 4G modem over USB to the Linux operating system and access the 4G network as an IP interface.
■With the protocol in place, the interface to the modem looks more like an Ethernet device than a serial communication device. It is therefore more efficient in terms of moving data in and out of the Linux network stack.
■Examples provided have been tested with:
▲NL-SW-LTE-TSVG firmware version 17.00.573
▲NL-SW-LTE-TNAG firmware version 1x.xx.x.x
■Hardware setup is the Skywire modem plugged into the Skywire Development Kit and USB cable connecting Mini-USB connector J5 into:
▲BeagleBone Black USB host port or Raspberry Pi USB host port
■Alternative configuration is the Skywire modem plugged into BeagleBone Black Cape (NL-AB-BBBC) and Cape plugged into BeageleBone Black with USB cable connecting the Cape to the BeagleBone USB Host port.
■These examples were prepared using Arch Linux (release as of 04/01/2015) on the Raspberry Pi and the Beaglebone.
