*Q6: Does OpenAirInterface work with the ETTUS N210?*
|
|
**Q6: Does OpenAirInterface work with the ETTUS N210?**
|
|
|
|
|
|
A6: Short answer: No. Long answer: The software should run, but the reference on the N210 is not at a frequency that can generate the required 7.68/15.36 MHz sampling. You should be able to get the OAI eNB to work with the OAI UE running at the wrong sampling rate though. We have never tried this since we don't have an N210.
