LTESniffer: An Open-Source LTE Downlink/Uplink Eavesdropper
For those interested in a more accessible LTE meta-data decoder check out https://github.com/JiaoXianjun/LTE-Cell-Scanner which can work with even cheap rtl-sdr dongles (for some things). It is a fork of an older https://github.com/Evrytania/LTE-Cell-Scanner

How to use cellmapper on Laptop?
There's a sdr package out there that can scan for towers(https://github.com/Evrytania/LTE-Cell-Scanner). I've played with it on my rtl-sdr and got some detailed info about sub 1Ghz lte.
- After weeks of testing and adding an external antenna I go 20x speed with VERY weak signal.
