Do you have an idea what would be my external IP address? On my phone connected to a mobile network, I get assigned mobile IP address which is my external IP address. It's not attached to the SIM card because it changes when I reconnected. Is it handles by the BTS software? Do I get assigned an IP address and BTS communicates on my behalf using that address which comes from the mobile network operators pool?


The LTE core assigns an IP address to your SIM card/UE. In the case of srsRAN, there's a simple CSV file mapping the IMSI to an IP address, but there are no limits on how complicated it can get.
