ISO/JTC1 SC6 update
• Geoff Thompson
29
ISO/IEC JTC1/SC6 planning ad hoc
•
•
Observations:
–
1) 802's current process regarding SC6 is passive--WGs would submit documents and until recently they would
get approved without objection or controversy. In effect, once an 802 standard was approved, it was a matter of
time before it received ISO/IEC JTC1 approval.
–
2) The passive approach worked well as long as there wasn't any conflict between the scope of 802's standards
and other standards being considered in SC6.
–
3) Things have changed. Now SC6 seems to be a target for NBs developing standards that overlap 802
standards in scope. 802 standards developers are relatively unaware of this change.
–
4) I assume this change in SC6 activity will be cause for concern for the standards developers in 802 once they
understand what is happening.
–
5) At a minimum 802 should understand the current scope of activity in SC6 and make sure the 802 standards
developers are fully aware of it. We need a means of monitoring and reporting to our membership what is
happening in that committee.
–
6) Based on feedback from 802's participants, possibly revise the process by which we interact with SC6 to
make sure our participants positions are adequately represented there.

Special EC meeting notice
Tuesday noon-1pm
•
Several pending appeals and dot20 suspension by SASB are a cause of significant
concern to the 802 Chair. Issues/concerns:
–
–
–
How to deal with overlap of WG scope
Concerns over block voting
WG participants apparently delaying progress instead of contributing to forward progress
•
We’ve had similar issues before—and successfully dealt with them—why has it become
such a large problem now?
•
802 Chair is calling a ‘special’ EC meeting to discuss the root causes of these issues and
attempt to identify resolutions

Patent Policy
(see next four slides)
61
Instructions for the WG Chair
• At Each Meeting, the Working Group Chair shall:
•
•
•
Show slides #1 and #2 of this presentation
Advise the WG membership that:
– The IEEE’s patent policy is consistent with the ANSI patent policy and is
described in Clause 6 of the IEEE-SA Standards Board Bylaws;
– Early disclosure of patents which may be essential for the use of standards under
development is encouraged;
– Disclosures made of such patents may not be exhaustive of all patents that may be
essential for the use of standards under development, and that neither the IEEE,
the WG, nor the WG Chairman ensure the accuracy or completeness of any
disclosure or whether any disclosure is of a patent that, in fact, may be essential
for the use of standards under development.
Instruct the WG Secretary to record in the minutes of the relevant WG meeting:
– That the foregoing advice was provided and the two slides were shown;
– That an opportunity was provided for WG members to identify or disclose patents
that the WG member believes may be essential for the use of that standard;
– Any responses that were given, specifically the patents and patent applications that
were identified (if any) and by whom.

(Not necessary to be shown)
Approved by IEEE-SA Standards Board – March 2003 (Revised
February 2006)
IEEE-SA Standards Board Bylaws on Patents
6. Patents
in Standards
IEEE standards may include the known use of essential patents and patent applications
provided the IEEE receives assurance from the patent holder or applicant with respect to
patents whose infringement is, or in the case of patent applications, potential future
infringement the applicant asserts will be, unavoidable in a compliant implementation of
either mandatory or optional portions of the standard [essential patents]. This assurance
shall be provided without coercion. The patent holder or applicant should provide this
assurance as soon as reasonably feasible in the standards development process. This
assurance shall be provided no later than the approval of the standard (or reaffirmation
when a patent or patent application becomes known after initial approval of the standard).
This assurance shall be either:
a) A general disclaimer to the effect that the patentee will not enforce any of its present or
future patent(s) whose use would be required to implement either mandatory or optional
portions of the proposed IEEE standard against any person or entity complying with the
standard; or
b) A statement that a license for such implementation will be made available without
compensation or under reasonable rates, with reasonable terms and conditions that are
demonstrably free of any unfair discrimination.
This assurance is irrevocable once submitted and accepted and shall apply, at a minimum,
from the date of the standard’s approval to the date of the standard’s withdrawal.
