3 | 4 | ipse | OsmoBTS is a software part of a BTS, which implements Layer 1, Layer 2 and Layer 3: |
4 | * LAPDm (GSM 04.06) |
||
5 | * RTP |
||
6 | * A-bis/IP (similar to ip.access nanoBTS) |
||
7 | * OML (GSM 12.21) |
||
8 | * RSL (GSM 08.58) |
||

10 | 4 | ipse | OsmoBTS is building up on work done previosuly for [wiki:OpenBSC] (RSL, OML, RTP) and [http://bb.osmocom.org OsmocomBB] (LAPDm). A-bis/IP implementation is heavily inspired by ip.access nanoBTS A-bis/IP implementation. |

12 | 4 | ipse | OsmoBTS is written in a re-targettable way, i.e. it should be relatively easy to target a new BTS hardware (i.e. BTS-side Layer 0 or Layer 1) with it. |

14 | == Hardware support == |
||
15 | |||
16 | 4 | ipse | So far OsmoBTS supports a number of hardware options: |
17 | 3 | ipse | * Quad-band femto-BTS product called [http://www.sysmocom.de/products/sysmobts sysmoBTS] which is sold by [http://sysmocom.de/ sysmocom] |
18 | 4 | ipse | * Wideband SDR transceiver hardware [https://code.google.com/p/umtrx/ UmTRX] sold by [https://fairwaves.ru fairwaves] and a number of other SDR transceivers, using OpenBTS transceiver software. |
19 | * A pretty crazy experimental BTS hardware based on two OsmocomBB phones had originally been supported, but needs to be re-integrated with core code changes. |
||

21 | Check out [wiki:network_from_scratch] page for more information how to run OsmoBTS with UmTRX (using the OpenBTS transceiver software) or OsmocomBB phones. |
