C.3 Relationship to E-OTD reporting periods
3GPP45.010GSM/EDGE Radio subsystem synchronizationTS
The relationship between the E-OTD reporting period , the BTS frequency source’s rms time interval error (RMS of Time Interval Error, see ITU-T Recommendation G.810), and the maximum admissible range error is given by (see 3GPP TS 45.050, annex V.7):
in which is the speed of the waves (usually taken as , the speed of light in vacuum) and is a constant which sets the percentile associated with . (When the TIE has a Gaussian distribution , , and .) In practice, the BTS frequency source stability and required E-OTD range accuracy are likely to be given and table C.3.1 allows the corresponding value of the E-OTD reporting period to be read off.

For example given the requirement for r max @ 95% shall be better than 60m and an observed frequency stability is 0,00072 s/sec then the resulting E-OTD Reporting Period () from the LMU making the observations will be no greater than 100 seconds.
