OsmoCBC

This is the upcoming Osmocom Cell Broadcast Centre.

Introduction

You can find more information about Cell Broadcast in general at Cell_Broadcast and Service_Area_Broadcast, as well as Emergency_Warning and Public_Warning_System. The pages include pointers to the relevant specifications.

Position in the network

The below graph shows the CBC in the network.

As can be seen, the CBC receives messages from third-party applications (called CBEs). It then routes/distributes/forwards those messages over the respective radio access technology specific method.

History

OsmoCBC was originally developed in 2019 under a so-called prototype fund grant of the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research.

In August 2022, osmo-cbc was extended with support for LTE/4G by introducing the SBcAP interface, under a grant of the NLnet foundation

Binary Packages

Osmocom provides binary packages for several flavors of Debian and Ubuntu GNU/Linux on a variety of architectures (i586, x86_64, armhf, armv7l). Unless you are a software developer interested in developing on Osmocom, it is recommended you use those packages instead of building from source.

For more details see Binary_Packages
