In the last two years, project OpenBSC was developed +to change this. It implements the neccessarry signalling protocol stack and +provide a miniature "GSM network in a box" application for small networks, +replacing traditional BSC, MSC, HLR, EIR and SMSC. + +Using the recently-developed OsmoSGSN and the existing OpenGGSN software, this +GSM network can be extended by the neccessarry components to also provide +packet-switched data services like GPRS and EDGE(EGPRS). + +The presentation will introduce the software architecture and give a +practical demonstration. + + +Misc Notes: + +The demonstration requires an experimental/test license from the UK regulatory +body OFCOM. I will provide all neccessary technical data to acquire this +license. |
