[srsran-users] BladeRF Support for 5G

Fri Apr 7 09:56:21 UTC 2023

Hi Ahmad,

The main difference between srsRAN 4G and srsRAN Project is that srsRAN
Project is an O-RAN native architecture (as well as being all-new code).
The srsRAN 4G codebase will still be supported, although it will not
receive any major new features; future releases will focus on bug-fixing
and improvements where needed. The difference in the 5G implementations
across both is the features available and how they are implemented.

Best regards,
Brendan
