	This reference system is also known as'' Earth-Centred, Earth-Fixed'' (ECEF), it is an earth-fixed, i.e. rotating (not space-fixed as [[Conventional Celestial Reference System\|CRS]] reference system). Its origin is the Earth's centre of mass, the fundamental plane contains this origin and it is perpendicular to the ''Earth's Conventional Terrestrial Pole'' (CTP) --defined as an average of the poles from 1900 to 1905--. Its principal axis is pointing to the intersection of the mean Greenwich meridian and the equator. Since this coordinate system follows the diurnal rotation of earth, this is not an inertial reference system.

* z<math>_{TRS}</math>: This axis is defined by the CTP.

* x<math>_{TRS}</math>: This axis is defined as the intersection between the equatorial plane and the mean Greenwich meridian. The equatorial plane is orthogonal to the CTP and in the Mean Greenwich meridian direction. This meridian established by the BIE (Bureau International de l'Heure) observatory.

* y<math>_{TRS}</math>: It is orthogonal to the formers ones, so the system is right-handed.
