Generate .bib-file for 3GPP specifications

SDO Bibtex entry generator

This project aims to generate BiBTeX files that can be used when citing 3GPP specifications. The input is a document list exported from the 3GPP Portal.

Installation

pip install sdo-citations

Instructions

1. Go to the 3GPP Portal
2. Generate the list of specifications you want.
3. Download to Excel and save file
4. Run sdo-citations -i exported.xlsx -o 3gpp.bib
5. Use in LaTeX.

Optionally use the provided 3gpp.bib directly.

Things to note

• The output bibtex class is set to @techreport.
• If you add the option --xelatex, break-symbols \- will be used in url-fields.
• The version and date are read from 3gpp.org, but it is slow so it takes a while to parse the list. If you find an easy solution to this, let me know.

Example output

@techreport{3gpp.36.331,
 author = {3GPP},
 day = {20},
 institution = {{3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP)}},
 month = {04},
 note = {Version 14.2.2},
 number = {36.331},
 title = {{Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access (E-UTRA); Radio Resource Control (RRC); Protocol specification}},
 type = {Technical Specification (TS)},
 url = {https://portal.3gpp.org/desktopmodules/Specifications/SpecificationDetails.aspx?specificationId=2440},
 year = {2017}
}
