There are many definitions for DR:

OIP3: Output 3rd-order Intercept Point
IIP3: Input 3rd-order Intercept Point
IMD: Inter-Modulation Distortion
IM3: 3rd-order Inter-Modulation product(dBm)
Summary of Acronyms
SFDR: Spurious Free Dynamic Range
NF: Noise Figure
SNR: Signal Noise Ratio
32
P1dB: 1dB compression Point
