[srslte-users] Connecting any phone to srsENB

[David Hitchcock]

srsLTE team,

Great software! Thanks for all the hard work!

I have setup a srsLTE network with srslte eNodeB connected to an unlocked phone with a test SIM card from sysmocom. No problem there.

Now I have, perhaps a dumb question. Is there some way to allow any phone to connect to the srsenb network? I doubt it, since the parameters stored in the phone’s USIM card must be added to the ‘user_db.csv’ file. Yet, I am a bit confused with the roaming process, where a phone can ‘roam’ on another network with the right permissions and traceability (for billing). Is there some way an off-the-shelf phone can ‘roam’ on the srsLTE eNodeB as they do on other networks?

Failing that, (which seems likely) is there some Over The Air (OTA) process that can read the required parameters, which can then be added to ‘user_db.csv’?

Thanks,
David
