Other Activities From This Working Group
Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.
P211
Standard for Definitions of Terms for Radio Wave Propagation
The standard provides terms and definitions used in the context of electromagnetic wave propagation relating to the fields of telecommunications, sensing, astronomy, optical waves, plasma waves, the ionosphere, the magnetosphere, and magnetohydrodynamic, acoustic, and electrostatic waves. Some obsolete terms and definitions are removed. The language used for some already existing terms is refined. The standard also includes some additional terms that are commonly accepted in these fields.
Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.
211-2018
IEEE Standard Definitions of Terms for Radio Wave Propagation
Terms and definitions used in the context of electromagnetic wave propagation relating to the fields of telecommunications, remote sensing, radio astronomy, optical waves, plasma waves, the ionosphere, the magnetosphere, and magnetohydrodynamic, acoustic, and electrostatic waves are supplied.
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
211-1977
IEEE Standard Definitions of Terms for Radio Wave Propagation
Terms and definitions used in the context of electromagnetic wave propagation relating to the fields of telecommunications, remote sensing, radio astronomy, optical waves, plasma waves, the ionosphere, the magnetosphere, and magnetohydrodynamic, acoustic, and electrostatic waves are supplied.
211-1997
IEEE Standard Definitions of Terms for Radio Wave Propagation
Terms and definitions used in the context of electromagnetic wave propagation relating to the fields of telecommunications, remote sensing, radio astronomy, optical waves, plasma waves, the ionosphere, the magnetosphere, and magnetohydrodynamic, acoustic, and electrostatic waves are supplied.
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
