osmo-cbc - Osmocom Cell Broadcast Centre
========================================

This repository contains a C-language implementation of a minimal
3GPP Cell Broadcast Centre (CBC). It is part of the
[Osmocom](https://osmocom.org/) Open Source Mobile Communications
project.

A Cell Broadcast Centre is the central network element of a cellular network
for distribution of Cell Broadcast and Emergency messages.

This code implements
 * the CBSP protocol on the CBC-BSC interface
 * a custom HTTP/REST based interface for external users to create/delete CBS messages

We plan to add support for the following features in the future:
 * the SABP protocol on the CBC-RNC (or CBC-HNBGW) interface for UMTS support
 * the SBcAP protocol on the CBC-MME interface for LTE support
