Hi,

you can use srsLTE/lib/examples/pdsch_ue.c to listing to the cell's
paging requests setting the rnti=P-RNTI. This was first described in
[1]. For further Downlink analyses, you can use Airscope an srsLTE based
downlink analyzer [2]. Sniffing the Attach Request is a bit more
difficult, as they are send in uplink direction. For injecting paging
traffic the UE must be synchronized to the your PSS and SSS. For more
information you can read [1] or [3].

Best regards,
David
