== Overview
[graphviz]
----
include::osmocom_ran_options.dot[]
----
== Clasic E1/T1 based BTS
Supported Vendors/Dialects
* Siemens (only BS-11 tested)
* Ericsson RBS2xxx (RBS2307, 2308, 2111 tested)
* Nokia InSite, MetroSite
[options="header"]
|===
|Pro|Con
|available inexpensively from decomissioned sites | appears a bit antiquated
|up to 12 TRX | not many people familiar with E1/T1 anymore
|high RF output power | no convenient testing/debugging of E1/T1 issues
|rugged mechanical build, high MTTF | high power consumption
| | older models no EGPRS, no AMR

== Clasic E1/T1 based BTS
image::images/har2009-bs11_antennas2.small.jpg[width="50%",role="gimmick_right"]
* This is how it all started
* E1 based BTS (Siemens BS-11)
* HAR 2009 - Dutch Hacker Camp
* Antennas mounted with duct tape to tree
* E1 back-haul over CAT5 to OpenBSC running in tent
== Ericsson RBS 2308
image::images/rbs2308.jpg[width="60%",role="gimmick_right"]
* Many RBS2000 models
* All very similar on protocol
* Not all models tested
* Good results with RBS2308 + RBS2111
== ip.access nanoBTS
image::images/nanoBTS_small.png[width="40%",role="gimmick_right"]
* PoE-enabled single-TRX 200mW indoor BTS
* GPRS/GSM only models and EGPRS-enabled models
* available in band-specific versions for all four bands
* proprietary BTS and PCU inside
** lots of PCU crashes reported by users :(
** no way for us to fix it
* No fully dynamic channels (TCH/F + TCH/H + PDCH)
== sysmoBTS
image::images/symoBTS_v2D_front_1024.jpg[width="35%",role="gimmick_right"]
* sysmocom builds family of GSM BTS based on OsmoBTS + OsmoPCU
* revenue from this sales used to cross-subsidize OsmoBTS development
* *osmo-bts-sysmo* uses shared-memory /dev to talk to PHY
* *osmo-pcu* uses shared-memory /dev to talk to PHY

== Nuran LiteCell 1.5
image::images/litecell15.jpg[width="40%",role="gimmick_right"]
* 10W 2-TRX Outdoor BTS
* *osmo-bts-litecell15* uses shared-memory /dev to talk to PHY
* *osmo-pcu* uses shared-memory /dev to talk to PHY
== Octasic OCTBTS with OCTPHY-2G
image::images/octbts_3600_photo__large.png[width="40%",role="gimmick_right"]
* not a ready-to-deploy BTS product, more a BTS development board
** no enclosure, no PA, no filters
* proprietary PHY runs in Octasic DSP
** raw Ethernet frames towards *osmo-bts-octphy*
** unix domain pcu-socket to *osmo-pcu*
* series of different board models (3000, 3500, 3600) with different
number of DSPs, radio interfaces, ARM/x86 processor core
* two TRX per DSP possible
* not all voice codecs supported
* EGRPS integration with OsmoPCU not working yet
