You want to build a small GSM mobile network yourself? Where you want to get the core network elements? Or you just want to build the radio part?

For the antenna, sure you can build it, but I just wonder how you want to switch the calls? As you mention GSM network, you must have something work as the MSC at least.

Depending on the country you can apply for e MVNO license. It will allow you to use the network of another GSM provider without having your own.

MVNO is a very new technology in some countries, especially third world countries...and I think its not easy for a normal student to apply for that.
