With this hands-on, step-by-step guide, you'll learn how to use OpenBTS to construct simple, flexible, and inexpensive mobile networks with software.

OpenBTS can distribute any internet connection as a mobile network across a large geographic region, and provide connectivity to remote devices in the Internet of Things. Ideal for telecom and software engineers new to this technology, this book helps you build a basic OpenBTS network with voice and SMS services and data capabilities. From there, you can create your own niche product or experimental feature.
