Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical
Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members
of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees
established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC
technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described
in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types of
document should be noted.
IEEE Standards documents are developed within IEEE Societies and subcommittees of IEEE Standards
Association (IEEE SA) Board of Governors. IEEE develops its standards through an accredited consensus
development process, which brings together volunteers representing varied viewpoints and interests to
achieve the final product. IEEE standards are documents developed by volunteers with scientific, academic,
and industry-based expertise in technical working groups. Volunteers are not necessarily members of IEEE or
IEEE SA and participate without compensation from IEEE. While IEEE administers the process and establishes
rules to promote fairness in the consensus development process, IEEE does not independently evaluate, test,
or verify the accuracy of any of the information or the soundness of any judgments contained in its standards.
ISO and IEC draw attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of
(a) patent(s). ISO and IEC take no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed
patent rights in respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, ISO and IEC had not received
notice of (a) patent(s) which may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are
cautioned that this may not represent the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database
available at www.iso.org/patents and https://patents.iec.ch. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for
identifying any or all such patent rights.
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation of the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and expressions
related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the World Trade
Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see www.iso.org/iso/foreword.html.

defined in the Partner Standards Development Organization cooperation agreement between ISO and IEEE,
by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC 6, Telecommunications
and information exchange between systems.

Important Notices and Disclaimers Concerning IEEE Standards
Documents
IEEE Standards documents are made available for use subject to important notices and legal disclaimers.
These notices and disclaimers, or a reference to this page (https://standards.ieee.org/ipr/disclaimers.html),
appear in all IEEE standards and may be found under the heading “Important Notices and Disclaimers
Concerning IEEE Standards Documents.”
Notice and Disclaimer of Liability Concerning the Use of IEEE Standards
Documents
IEEE Standards documents are developed within IEEE Societies and subcommittees of IEEE Standards
Association (IEEE SA) Board of Governors. IEEE develops its standards through an accredited consensus
development process, which brings together volunteers representing varied viewpoints and interests to
achieve the final product. IEEE standards are documents developed by volunteers with scientific, academic,
and industry-based expertise in technical working groups. Volunteers involved in technical working groups
are not necessarily members of IEEE or IEEE SA and participate without compensation from IEEE. While
IEEE administers the process and establishes rules to promote fairness in the consensus development
process, IEEE does not independently evaluate, test, or verify the accuracy of any of the information or the
soundness of any judgments contained in its standards.
IEEE makes no warranties or representations concerning its standards, and expressly disclaims all
warranties, express or implied, concerning all standards, including but not limited to the warranties of
merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. IEEE Standards documents do not
guarantee safety, security, health, or environmental protection, or compliance with law, or guarantee against
interference with or from other devices or networks. In addition, IEEE does not warrant or represent that the
use of the material contained in its standards is free from patent infringement. IEEE Standards documents
are supplied “AS IS” and “WITH ALL FAULTS.”
Use of an IEEE standard is wholly voluntary. The existence of an IEEE standard does not imply that there
are no other ways to produce, test, measure, purchase, market, or provide other goods and services related to
the scope of the IEEE standard. Furthermore, the viewpoint expressed at the time a standard is approved and
issued is subject to change brought about through developments in the state of the art and comments
received from users of the standard.
In publishing and making its standards available, IEEE is not suggesting or rendering professional or other
services for, or on behalf of, any person or entity, nor is IEEE undertaking to perform any duty owed by any
other person or entity to another. Any person utilizing any IEEE Standards document should rely upon their
own independent judgment in the exercise of reasonable care in any given circumstances or, as appropriate,
seek the advice of a competent professional in determining the appropriateness of a given IEEE standard.
IN NO EVENT SHALL IEEE BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL,
EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO: THE
NEED TO PROCURE SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES; LOSS OF USE, DATA, OR PROFITS;
OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION) HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY,
WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR
OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE PUBLICATION, USE OF, OR RELIANCE
UPON ANY STANDARD, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE AND
REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH DAMAGE WAS FORESEEABLE.
Translations
The IEEE consensus balloting process involves the review of documents in English only. In the event that an
IEEE standard is translated, only the English language version published by IEEE is the approved IEEE
standard.
Use by artificial intelligence systems
In no event shall material in any IEEE Standards documents be used for the purpose of creating, training, en-
hancing, developing, maintaining, or contributing to any artificial intelligence systems without the express,
written consent of the IEEE SA in advance. “Artificial intelligence” refers to any software, application, or
other system that uses artificial intelligence, machine learning, or similar technologies, to analyze, train, pro-
cess, or generate content. Requests for consent can be submitted using the Contact Us form.
Official statements
A statement, written or oral, that is not processed in accordance with the IEEE SA Standards Board Operations
Manual is not, and shall not be considered or inferred to be, the official position of IEEE or any of its
committees and shall not be considered to be or be relied upon as, a formal position of IEEE or IEEE SA. At
lectures, symposia, seminars, or educational courses, an individual presenting information on IEEE standards
shall make it clear that the presenter’s views should be considered the personal views of that individual rather
than the formal position of IEEE, IEEE SA, the Standards Committee, or the Working Group. Statements
made by volunteers may not represent the formal position of their employer(s) or affiliation(s). News releases
about IEEE standards issued by entities other than IEEE SA should be considered the view of the entity
issuing the release rather than the formal position of IEEE or IEEE SA.
Comments on standards
Comments for revision of IEEE Standards documents are welcome from any interested party, regardless of
membership affiliation with IEEE or IEEE SA. However, IEEE does not provide interpretations,
consulting information, or advice pertaining to IEEE Standards documents.
Suggestions for changes in documents should be in the form of a proposed change of text, together with
appropriate supporting comments. Since IEEE standards represent a consensus of concerned interests, it is
important that any responses to comments and questions also receive the concurrence of a balance of interests.
For this reason, IEEE and the members of its Societies and subcommittees of the IEEE SA Board of
Governors are not able to provide an instant response to comments or questions except in those cases where the
matter has previously been addressed. For the same reason, IEEE does not respond to interpretation requests.
Any person who would like to participate in evaluating comments or revisions to an IEEE standard is welcome
to join the relevant IEEE SA working group. You can indicate interest in a working group using the Interests
tab in the Manage Profile & Interests area of the IEEE SA myProject system. An IEEE Account is needed to
access the application.
Comments on standards should be submitted using the Contact Us form.
Laws and regulations
Users of IEEE Standards documents should consult all applicable laws and regulations. Compliance with the
provisions of any IEEE Standards document does not constitute compliance to any applicable regulatory

requirements. Implementers of the standard are responsible for observing or referring to the applicable
regulatory requirements. IEEE does not, by the publication of its standards, intend to urge action that is not
in compliance with applicable laws, and these documents may not be construed as doing so.
Data privacy
Users of IEEE Standards documents should evaluate the standards for considerations of data privacy and
data ownership in the context of assessing and using the standards in compliance with applicable laws and
