Overview
OsmoPCU is an Open Source GPRS/EGPRS PCU (Packet Control Unit) with Gb/IP interface. It connects via a pcu_socket to OsmoBTS or OsmoBSC and provides RLC/MAC layer and air interface scheduling for GPRS/EGPRS. Connects via 3GPP Gb/IP to a SGSN like OsmoSGSN
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
