Hi,
are there any plans to establish a GSM network next year?
Well, the problem is the hardware.
To cover the fosdem, (both in capacity and area), you'd need 5 devices at the least.
To make open source GSM you have two solutions :
- OpenBSC + nanoBTS solutions - OpenBTS solutions.
They're unfortunately not fully inter-operable yet.
The first solution require nanoBTS. Each unit cost (new) about 4000 EUR. The second solution require a USRP (~1500 EUR) + PC/SBC at each site.
So who has equipement that he'd be willing to loan to the FOSDEM ? (Given the high price, I guess some damage/stolen insurance would be needed).
I have some, but not nearly enough.
If yes, do we need to bring our own SIM cards ?
SIM are the least of the problems :)
Cheers,
