 srsLTE is a free and open-source LTE library for SDR UE and eNodeB developed by SRS (www.softwareradiosystems.com). The library is highly modular with minimum inter-module or external dependencies. It is entirely written in C and, if available in the system, uses the acceleration library VOLK distributed in GNURadio.
