**Q7: What RF considerations are needed to run OAI?**
|

A7. You need a duplexer and RF cables, antennas to work correctly. The RF parts should match correctly the band/RF frequency in which you are running the system. For more details, https://gitlab.eurecom.fr/oai/openairinterface5g/wikis/OpenAirSystemRequirements#duplexer

A9. You need Ubuntu 14.04 or later running natively on the computer. At the time of writing (October 2018), we are intensively testing OAI on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. There are specific requirements also on the kernel for OAI. For more details, see [OAI SW Support](https://gitlab.eurecom.fr/oai/openairinterface5g/wikis/OpenAirSoftwareSupport) page.

**Q10: What are the UE Requirements?**
|
|
|
|
|
|
A10. None theoretically, but it is best to use the phones that we have tried. Some phones bought from carriers have a wrapper that does not allow proper connection with OAI. It is best to buy unlocked phones but not from carrier but directly from 3rd party vendors on amazon/ebay. The SIM card tools are also listed here, https://gitlab.eurecom.fr/oai/openairinterface5g/wikis/OpenAirSystemRequirements

A13. Yes, we have a very basic CI framework that can run compilation, oaisim, phy tests and it can also be used to remotely control UEs,EPC, eNBs and run throughput tests. You are welcome to integrate it on your site and report issues on the mailing list. For more details, https://gitlab.eurecom.fr/oai/openairinterface5g/wikis/GitLabWorkFlow
