Kapitel 1

Abkürzungen Gehen wir von 30 Zeichen aus, aus denen Abkürzungen gebildet werden, und nehmen wir eine größte Länge von 5 Zeichen an, so lassen sich 25.137.930 verschiedene Abkürzungen bilden (Kombinationen mit Wiederholung und Berücksichtigung der Reihenfolge). Es folgt eine Auswahl von rund 16000 Abkürzungen aus den Bereichen Informatik und Telekommunikation. Die Abkürzungen werden hier durchgehend groß geschrieben, Akzente, Bindestriche und dergleichen wurden weggelassen. Einige Abkürzungen sind geschützte Namen; diese sind nicht gekennzeichnet. Die Liste beschreibt nur den Gebrauch, sie legt nicht eine Definition fest. 100GE 16CIF 16QAM 1GFC 1GL 1TBS 1TR6 247 2D 2FA 2GL 2L8 2MS 3D 3GIO 3GL 3GPP 3LH 3PCC 3R 3RR 3T 4CIF 4GL 4LH 4MV 4U 5G
