Filtering out All LTE Transmissions

0

I would like to filter an existing pcap to produce anything that happens in an LTE connection with a phone. What filter should I use to do this?

I know there are sub-layers/display filters such as MAC-LTE, PDCP-LTE, etc. but I want all layers/filter types that occur during an LTE transmission. Is there any way to do this?

I already know how to filter the data using tshark, I just need the right filter is all.

Are you looking for protocols used on the air interface between an eNB and a UE? If yes, the involved protocols are the following display filters: mac-lte, rlc-lte, pdcp-lte, lte_rrc, nas-eps.

If you are capturing in network, you could also be interested by the following display filters: s1ap, x2ap, gtp, gtpv2,...

If you use a proprietary solution to capture packets, you might have other dissectors (and thus display filters) on top of the ones I listed above (that are part of the standard Wireshark source code).
