Content for TS 25.201 Word version: 18.0.0
1 Scope p. 5
The present document describes a general description of the physical layer of the UTRA radio interface. The present document also describes the document structure of the 3GPP physical layer specifications, i.e. TS 25.200 series. The TS 25.200 series specifies the Uu point for the 3G mobile system, and defines the minimum level of specifications required for basic connections in terms of mutual connectivity and compatibility.
2 References p. 5
