OsmocomBB

[[PageOutline]]

= Welcome to the OsmocomBB project =

== Introduction ==

OsmocomBB is an Free Software / Open Source GSM Baseband software implementation. It

intends to completely replace the need for a proprietary GSM baseband software, such as

 * drivers for the GSM analog and digital baseband (integrated and external) peripherals

 * the GSM phone-side protocol stack, from layer 1 up to layer 3

In short: By using [wiki:OsmocomBB] on a [wiki:Hardware/Phones compatible phone], you are able

to make and receive phone calls, send and receive SMS, etc. based on Free Software only.

For more information, please read the [wiki:ProjectRationale].

Working with OsmocomBB can be challenging (technically and socially). If you haven't done so already, please have a look at our [wiki:PreliminaryRequirements requirements] page.
