[srslte-users] Getting srsUE up and running

Wed Jul 27 11:36:56 UTC 2016

Hi Domi,

were you able to run OAI eNodeB in 20 MHz mode? With that processor, srsUE
should do full rate downlink in 10 MHz mode and support up to 35 Mbps. For
20 MHz bw and to reach 75 Mbps downlink you'll need a true 4-core
processor.
