This presentation will mark the first public release of a new GPL licensed Free Software project implementing the GSM fixed network, including the various minimal necessary functionality of BSC, MSC, HLR. It will introduce the respective standards and protocols, as well as a short demonstration of an actual phone call between two mobile phones registered to the base station. The second part continues with more complex networks such as 3G/3.5G.

This presentation will mark the first public release of a new GPL licensed Free Software project implementing the GSM fixed network, including the various minimal necessary functionality of BSC, MSC, HLR.

The presentation provide an introduction to the world of GSM mobile communication, from a theoretical point of view. You will learn about the technical details of 3G/3.5G and demonstrate its principle using short telephone calls between two real phones.

In this presentation, the author will explain how to run your own GSM network using a cell phone, and what you can do with a sim card inserted under Linux. The speaker mainly focuses on implementations of the (in combination with GNUlib) most important standards: 3GPP2, IETF RFC3562 with SGML-based MIME types and Protocol User Datagram (UDP/-TCP), and Radiolink DOCSIS cables combined with generic SIP server. It is also assumed that you know some theory about packet protocols like UDP and TCP, or know what these acronyms mean in general.
