3 | At the [http://events.ccc.de/camp/2011/ CCC Camp 2011], we will again be running an experimental OpenBSC network. |
||
4 | |||
5 | The large area of the camp site and the number of users (expected in the 2,000 to 4,000 user range) make this an |
||
6 | ideal test installation for OpenBSC. |
||
7 | |||
8 | == Netork structure == |
||
9 | |||
10 | Given that there is only a maximum number of 10 ARFCN in the DECT guard band that we could use, |
||
11 | we cannot really afford to run many small BTSs. May small BTSs (single-arfcn) would mean that the capacity |
||
12 | is split/fragmented over the camp site. |
||
13 | |||
14 | Running few but large BTSs (many TRX) at higher power seems like the better strategy. It delivers |
||
15 | capacity without restricting it locally, i.e. capacity can be used anywhere on the camp. |
||
16 | |||
17 | == Materials == |
||
18 | |||
19 | === BTS and accessories === |
||
20 | |||
21 | We will most likely have Motorola Horizon I BTS in GSM 1800, though this is not certain yet |
||
22 | |||
23 | 3 | laforge | * lots of patchcable for our E1 lines (Allnet TC75205E-500H == 500m for 89 EUR) |
24 | * lots of coaxial cable for connection the antennas with the BTS |
||
25 | * BTS antennas (sector or omnidirectional) |
||
26 | 1 | laforge | |
27 | === BSC and core network === |
||
28 | |||
29 | We will run a single machine with mISDN or DAHDI E1 cards and [wiki:osmo-nitb] attached to a [wiki:lcr] via MNCC. |

||
54 | |||
55 | === Dieter === |
||
56 | |||
