It seems somebody has already done it: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/freeabs_all.jsp?arnumber=5355672
I have contacted the authors of the paper and asked them if they have ever released the source code or send me a copy of it. This would definitely speed things up.
I really have no intention (or time) to write a full wireshark dissector for the entire protocol stack. Too many other interesting projects :/
So lets hope they will release their code...
Hi all,

by the way: the paper is in tetra-misc.git/papers/

They have responded to me and indicated that they agreed to release the source code (which was so far only used internally, so they have no legal obligation to release it).
I don't have the source code yet, apparently they first want to translate some documentation into English before providing it.
This is really great news. I hope we can make quick progress in getting great decodes once we have their code (which is generated from asn.1 specifications that they wrote, so it should be relatively clean/systematic and not tons of hand-coded cruft)
I'll keep you posted once there is any released code (which will be in tetra-misc.git as soon as I get it, anyway).
I think we simply abuse GSMTAP and add a new TETRA frame type to it, this way we can benefit from the existing UDP port registration at IANA and the existing gsmtap code (in wireshark and libosmocore).
Regards, Harald
