CR2S01
This CIRAN2 sled is a cost optimised RAN design based on a LimeSDR Mini 2.0 and UP 4000 SBC.
Since LimeSDR Mini 2.0 is a single-input single-output (SISO) software-defined radio, MIMO use is not supported.
Theory of operation
The LimeSDR Mini 2.0 is plugged into a USB 3.0 port on the UP 4000 SBC.
A 10 MHz external clock reference is provided via the CSAD10 board, with an LTE Band 3 Low Power Duplexer connected to the SDR Tx and Rx ports.
