| 6 | 2 | ptrkrysik | |
| 7 | 11 | ptrkrysik | [[OsmocomBB:]] project provides almost free software GSM mobile station implementation, from Layer 2 to Layer 3. The last non-free parts are: layer 1 and low level signal processing that are implemented in a non-free DSP software which is inside of the hardware platform that [[OsmocomBB:]] is currently based on (mainly reverse engineered [[OsmocomBB:TI_Calypso_Chipset|Calypso]] based mobile phones). |

| 9 | 7 | ptrkrysik | The [[SDR PHY for OsmocomBB]] aims to replace these non-free parts through use Software Defined Radio devices and by creating missing software part for tasks such as scheduling, voice encoding/decoding, channel encoding/decoding, burst modulation/demodulation and controlling SDR hardware. In order to achieve this goal the [[SDR PHY for OsmocomBB]] brings together [[OsmocomBB:]] and [[gr-gsm:]] projects, where the role of [[gr-gsm:]] is to provide GSM bursts transmission and reception with everything starting from channel coding/decoding being done in [[OsmocomBB:]]. |

| 11 | 7 | ptrkrysik | Having support for general purpose SDR hardware has additional advantage of not being locked to a single and already obsolete hardware platform. Adding support for a new well documented SDR platform is significantly easier than reverse-engineering mobile phone's hardware and software. This could sustain [[OsmocomBB:]] project's life even in the absence of hacked mobile phones it is able to run on. |
