 ## Introduction
 
-[]
+This repository holds the standalone LTE-based 5G Broadcast transmitter part of the 5G-MAG Reference Tools.
 
 ### Specifications
 
-A list of specification related to this repository is available in the [Standards Wiki](https://github.com/5G-MAG/Standards/wiki/MBMS-&-LTE-based-5G-Broadcast:-Relevant-Specifications).

 ### About the implementation
 
-This implementation of an LTE-Based 5G Broadcast transmitter is based on the existing MBMS implementation in [srsRAN_4G](https://github.com/srsran/srsRAN_4G) eNodeB, modified to include a feature set of 3GPP Rel-17 LTE-based 5G Terrestrial Broadcast. It also includes a basic MBMS gateway which creates a virtual network interface sgi_mb which receives IP multimedia traffic. Note that an instance of an EPC is also required to be executed as part of the srsRAN_4G implementation. The eNodeB generates an LTE-based 5G Broadcast radio-frequency signal (I/Q samples) which can then be input to a USRP.

-Note that the implementation lacks an M2 interface, therefore control plane data is obtained from configuration files. Only a single MCH can be transmitted.

 ## Running
 
-Enter to the build directory and lunch the MBMS gateway, and the srsEPC, in diferent terminals.
-  
+Open the `build` directory and launch the MBMS gateway, and the srsEPC, in different terminals.
+
 ````  
 sudo ./srsepc/src/srsmbms
 sudo ./srsepc/src/srsepc
 ```` 
-
-It could be launch in background appending `` & `` at the end of the command 
-
-After running the MBMS gateway, executing `` ip a `` in the terminal we should see a network interface called `` sgi_mb ``. We need now to route the IP traffic to this new interface. Since it's a multicast interface we use smcroutectl. 
-
-Restarting the multicast route table: 
-
-`` sudo smcroutectl restart `` 
-
-Add a rule to redirect the traffic from the physical network interface of the PC with a specific IP address, to the sgi_mb. To know whats the name of the physical network interface run `` ip a `` in the termianl an look for one with a name similar to en0 or enp0.  
-
-`` sudo smcroutectl add eno0 239.255.1.1 sgi_mb `` 
-
-The IP address is the IP address source of the incoming IP traffic. 
-
-If the IP traffic is been generated in the PC using PCAP, ffmpeg or similar, it is recommended to create a rule that avoids the multicast traffic goes to the network where the PC are connected, flooding it with multicast traffic. That can be avoided with the following: 
-
-`` sudo route add -net 239.255.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev sgi_mb `` 
-
-At this point we can create an IP transmission from a multimedia file using ffmpeg, from example, with the following command we will transmit a MPEG TS to the transmitter endlessly: 
-
-`` while true; do ffmpeg -re -i file.ts -c copy -map 0 -f rtp_mpegts rtp://239.255.1.1:9988; done `` 
-
-The last step is to lunch the eNodeB. The eNode needs the conf files where it reads the configuration values. Copy `` the sib.conf.mbsfn `` to the folder `` rt-tx-poc/build/ ``, and enb.conf to `` /root/.config/srsran/enb.conf ``. Lunch the eNB with `` sudo ./srsenb``.
+
+Both can be launched in the background appending `` & `` at the end of the command.
+
+After running the MBMS gateway, executing `` ip a `` in the terminal should show a network interface
+called `` sgi_mb ``. The IP traffic needs to be routed to this new interface. Since it's a multicast interface
+`smcroutectl` is used.
+
+Run the following command to restart the multicast route table:
+
+`` sudo smcroutectl restart ``
+
+Add a rule to redirect the traffic from the physical network interface of the PC with a specific IP address, to the
+sgi_mb. To get the name of the physical network interface run `` ip a `` in the terminal and look for an interface with
+a
+name similar to en0 or enp0.
+
+`` sudo smcroutectl add eno0 239.255.1.1 sgi_mb ``
+
+The IP address is the source of the incoming IP traffic.
+
+If the IP traffic is been generated on the PC using PCAP, ffmpeg or similar, it is recommended to create a rule that
+avoids the multicast traffic to go to the network where the PC is connected to avoid flooding it with multicast traffic.
+For that reason run the following command:
+
+`` sudo route add -net 239.255.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev sgi_mb ``
+
+At this point an IP transmission from a multimedia file using ffmpeg can be created. As an example, execute the following
+command to transmit an infinite running MPEG TS to the transmitter:
+
+`` while true; do ffmpeg -re -i file.ts -c copy -map 0 -f rtp_mpegts rtp://239.255.1.1:9988; done ``
+
+The last step is to launch the eNodeB. The eNodeB needs the following configuration files:
+Copy `` the sib.conf.mbsfn `` to the folder `` rt-tx-poc/build/ ``, and `enb.conf` to `` /root/.config/srsran/enb.conf ``.
+Launch the eNB with `` sudo ./srsenb``.
