* Support for paging
Hardware
--------
srsRAN has native support for the Ettus Universal Hardware Driver (UHD) and the bladeRF driver. We also support SoapySDR.
Thus, any hardware supported by SoapySDR can be used. There is no sampling rate conversion, therefore the hardware should
support 30.72 MHz clock in order to work correctly with LTE sampling frequencies and decode signals from live LTE base stations.
We have tested the following hardware:
* USRP B2x0
* USRP B205mini
* USRP X3x0
* LimeSDR
* bladeRF
For Ettus Research equipment we recommended the LTS version of UHD, i.e. either 3.9.7 or 3.15.
Build Instructions
------------------
* Mandatory requirements:
* Common:
* cmake https://cmake.org/
* libfftw http://www.fftw.org/
* PolarSSL/mbedTLS https://tls.mbed.org
* srsUE:
* Boost: http://www.boost.org
* srsENB:
* Boost: http://www.boost.org
* lksctp: http://lksctp.sourceforge.net/
* config: http://www.hyperrealm.com/libconfig/
* srsEPC:
* Boost: http://www.boost.org
* lksctp: http://lksctp.sourceforge.net/
* config: http://www.hyperrealm.com/libconfig/
For example, on Ubuntu, one can install the mandatory build dependencies with:
```
sudo apt-get install build-essential cmake libfftw3-dev libmbedtls-dev libboost-program-options-dev libconfig++-dev libsctp-dev
```
or on Fedora:
```
dnf install cmake fftw3-devel mbedtls-devel lksctp-tools-devel libconfig-devel boost-devel
```
For CentOS, use the Fedora packages but replace `libconfig-devel` with just `libconfig`.
Note that depending on your flavor and version of Linux, the actual package names may be different.
* Optional requirements:
* srsgui: https://github.com/srsran/srsgui - for real-time plotting.
* libpcsclite-dev: https://pcsclite.apdu.fr/ - for accessing smart card readers
* libdw-dev libdw - for truly informative backtraces using backward-cpp
* RF front-end driver:
* UHD: https://github.com/EttusResearch/uhd
* SoapySDR: https://github.com/pothosware/SoapySDR
* BladeRF: https://github.com/Nuand/bladeRF
* ZeroMQ: https://github.com/zeromq
Download and build srsRAN:
```
git clone https://github.com/srsRAN/srsRAN.git
cd srsRAN
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../
make
make test
```
The srsRAN suite includes:
* srsUE - a full-stack SDR 4G/5G-NSA UE application (5G-SA coming soon)
* srsENB - a full-stack SDR 4G eNodeB application (5G-NSA and 5G-SA coming soon)
* srsEPC - a light-weight 4G core network implementation with MME, HSS and S/P-GW
Install srsRAN:
For application features, build instructions and user guides see the [srsRAN documentation](https://docs.srsran.com).
```
sudo make install
srsran_install_configs.sh user
```
This installs srsRAN and also copies the default srsRAN config files to
the user's home directory (~/.config/srsran).
Execution Instructions
----------------------
The srsUE, srsENB and srsEPC applications include example configuration files
that should be copied (manually or by using the convenience script) and modified,
if needed, to meet the system configuration.
On many systems they should work out of the box.
By default, all applications will search for config files in the user's home
directory (~/.config/srsran) upon startup.
Note that you have to execute the applications with root privileges to enable
real-time thread priorities and to permit creation of virtual network interfaces.
srsENB and srsEPC can run on the same machine as a network-in-the-box configuration.
srsUE needs to run on a separate machine.
If you have installed the software suite using ```sudo make install``` and
have installed the example config files using ```srsran_install_configs.sh user```,
you may just start all applications with their default parameters.
### srsEPC
On machine 1, run srsEPC as follows:
```
sudo srsepc
```
Using the default configuration, this creates a virtual network interface
named "srs_spgw_sgi" on machine 1 with IP 172.16.0.1. All connected UEs
will be assigned an IP in this network.
### srsENB
Also on machine 1, but in another console, run srsENB as follows:
```
sudo srsenb
```
### srsUE
On machine 2, run srsUE as follows:
```
sudo srsue
```
Using the default configuration, this creates a virtual network interface
named "tun_srsue" on machine 2 with an IP in the network 172.16.0.x.
Assuming the UE has been assigned IP 172.16.0.2, you may now exchange
IP traffic with machine 1 over the LTE link. For example, run a ping to
the default SGi IP address:
```
ping 172.16.0.1
```
