'''OpenBSC''' is a project to develop a [[free software]] implementation of [[GSM]] protocol stack and elements. It runs on Linux and requires an E1 interface (ISDN [[Primary Rate Interface]], via [[mISDN]]). It is written in C and licensed using the GPL (≥v2) license. |
|||
The first version implemented the GSM specification 21.12 and 08.5x, and worked for a specific Base Transceiver Station (Siemens BS11 MicroBTS). The first release of the project took place at the Chaos Communication Congress held in 2008 (25c3, [https://events.ccc.de/congress/2008/Fahrplan/events/3007.en.html Running your own GSM network]). |
|||
== Functions == |
|||
OpenBSC implements several [[Mobile Switching Center|MSC]] components, including the A-bis protocol (the protocol between the [[BTS]] and the [[BSC]]), [[Authentication Center|AUC]], [[Home Location Register|HLR]], [[Visitor Location Register|VLR]] (both using [[SQL]] tables), and a [[Short Message Service|SMS]] Switching Center. |
|||
OpenBSC can be accessed using [[telnet]]. |
|||
== Currently-Supported BTS Hardware == |

OpenBSC supports the following BTS devices: |
|||
* Siemens BS11 (microBTS) (E1 Primary Rate interface) |
|||
* ip.access nano BTS (PoE-interface) |
