# Hardware Requirements
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Current OpenAirInterface.org software requires Intel architecture based PCs
|
|
|
|
for the eNB or UE targets. This requirement is due to optimized DSP functions
|
|
|
|
which make heavy use of integer SIMD instructions (SSE, SSE2, SSS3, and SSE4).
|
|
|
|
The software has currently been tested on the following processor families:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Generation 3 Intel Core i5,i7
|
|
|
|
* Generation 2 Intel Xeon
|
|
|
|
* Intel Atom Rangely
|
|
|
|
* Generation 4 Intel Core i5,i7 (under test). No support for AVX2 yet, but this will come soon.
