PAD stands for pret a diffuser ie ready to broadcast. From a brief trawl these standards seem to be specifically French. No hits for 'ready to broadcast standards', but that is what this appears to mean.

If you choose to leave it as PAD (see Kironne's suggestion), an option would be to translate it something like (French PAD standards). You could gloss it, or add a translator's note.
