Generate .bib-file for 3GPP specifications

Primary LanguageTeX

3GPP Bibtex entry generator

Instructions

  1. Go to the 3GPP Portal
  2. Generate the list of specifications you want.
  3. Download to Excel and save file
  4. Run python 3gpp-citations.py 2017-06-11_1526_SpecificationList_e85256.xlsx 3gpp.bib
  5. Use in LaTeX.

Optionally use the provided 3gpp.bib directly.

Things to note

  • The output bibtex class is set to @techreport.
  • The version and date are read from the URL, but it is slow so it takes a while to parse the list. If you find an easy solution to this, let me know.
