Intellectual Property Rights
Essential patents
IPRs essential or potentially essential to normative deliverables may have been declared to ETSI. The information
pertaining to these essential IPRs, if any, is publicly available for ETSI members and non-members, and can be found
in ETSI SR 000 314: "Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs); Essential, or potentially Essential, IPRs notified to ETSI in
respect of ETSI standards", which is available from the ETSI Secretariat. Latest updates are available on the ETSI Web
server (https://ipr.etsi.org/).
Pursuant to the ETSI IPR Policy, no investigation, including IPR searches, has been carried out by ETSI. No guarantee
can be given as to the existence of other IPRs not referenced in ETSI SR 000 314 (or the updates on the ETSI Web
server) which are, or may be, or may become, essential to the present document.
Trademarks
The present document may include trademarks and/or tradenames which are asserted and/or registered by their owners.
ETSI claims no ownership of these except for any which are indicated as being the property of ETSI, and conveys no
right to use or reproduce any trademark and/or tradename. Mention of those trademarks in the present document does
not constitute an endorsement by ETSI of products, services or organizations associated with those trademarks.
Foreword
This Technical Report (TR) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio
spectrum Matters (ERM).
Modal verbs terminology
In the present document "should", "should not", "may", "need not", "will", "will not", "can" and "cannot" are to be
interpreted as described in clause 3.2 of the ETSI Drafting Rules (Verbal forms for the expression of provisions).
"must" and "must not" are NOT allowed in ETSI deliverables except when used in direct citation.
Introduction
Many ETSI deliverables address radio parameters. In order to make these documents easy to read and practical for the
user, the authors usually include the definitions of those parameters in the text corresponding to the appropriate clauses.
Sometimes these definitions are not exact copies from the ETSI Terms and Definitions database "TEDDI" or from other
ETSI deliverables, but are (slightly) adapted versions.
As a result many radio parameters have several different variants of their definitions used within ETSI.
The aim of the present document is to trace all those definitions (which are usually not included in "clause 3" of the
ETSI deliverables).
It may be possible, then, to try and harmonize them (work to be done in a later "phase").
Because there are many ETSI deliverables it is a large amount of work to find all the definitions by hand. Therefore, a
computer program that searches for definitions in ETSI documents has been written. The goal of this program (or set of
programs) is to assist tracing the definitions found outside of "clause 3".
In the present document the results of searches by hand (see clause 5 and annex A) and automatic searches (see
annex B) co-exist to make comparisons and verifications more easy.

Practical experience has shown that some of the outputs provided by a computer program, when versions 1.1.1 and
1.1.2 of the present document had been prepared needed some further editing by hand. Therefore, in order to prepare
version 1.2.1 of the present document another set of programmes (Matlab scripts) was written.
During a first stage of the work, ETSI deliverables of early Autumn 2016 had been used. The more recent internal
versions of the present document use files provided by ETSI early October 2017 (and are therefore expected to include
most of the Harmonised Standards revised in support of the Radio Equipment Directive).

1 Scope
The present document is intended to provide an overview of the various definitions of radio parameters that can be
found in ETSI deliverables.
The present document includes definitions found in ETSI TRs, TSs, ESs, EGs and ENs, gathered in October 2017.
As some consolidation work in the area of Radio Definitions had already been done in the early days of ETSI,
definitions in ETSI ETR 027 [i.78] and ETSI TR 100 027 [i.79] had also been searched "by program".
Older types of documents, such as TBRs, have not been analysed, in fine, for various reasons:
• if they had contained interesting definitions, it is likely that such definitions would also have been found in
more recent documents;
• their structure and layout is sufficiently different from more recent ETSI deliverables that the programs
(Scripts) used for recent ETSI deliverables have difficulty to "synchronize" and find possible definitions.
