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 ISO/IEC documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with
the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives or
www.iec.ch/members_experts/refdocs).
IEEE Standards documents are developed within the IEEE Societies and the Standards Coordinating
Committees of the IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) Standards Board. The IEEE develops its
standards through a consensus development process, approved by the American National Standards
Institute, which brings together volunteers representing varied viewpoints and interests to achieve the
final product. Volunteers are not necessarily members of the Institute and serve without compensation.
While the IEEE administers the process and establishes rules to promote fairness in the consensus
development process, the IEEE does not independently evaluate, test, or verify the accuracy of any of the
information contained in its standards.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details
of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents) or the IEC list of patent
declarations received (see patents.iec.ch).
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. In the IEC, see www.iec.ch/understanding-standards.
ISO/IEC/IEEE 8802-22 was prepared by the LAN/MAN of the IEEE Computer Society (as IEEE Std
802.22-2019) and drafted in accordance with its editorial rules. It was adopted, under the “fast-track
procedure” 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.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO/IEC/IEEE 8802-22:2015), which has been
technically revised.
A list of all parts in the ISO/IEC/IEEE 8802 series can be found on the ISO and IEC websites.
Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A

Abstract: This standard specifies the air interface, including the cognitive medium access control
layer (MAC) and physical layer (PHY), of point–to–multipoint wireless regional area networks
(WRANs) comprised of a professional fixed base station (BS) with fixed and portable user terminals
operating in the VHF/UHF TV broadcast bands between 54 MHz to 862 MHz, and potentially in the
1300 MHz to 1750 MHz, and 2700 MHz to 3700 MHz bands provided the regulatory regime allows
it.

Important Notices and Disclaimers Concerning IEEE Standards Documents
IEEE documents are made available for use subject to important notices and legal disclaimers. These notices
and disclaimers, or a reference to this page, appear in all standards and may be found under the heading
“Important Notices and Disclaimers Concerning IEEE Standards Documents.” They can also be obtained on
request from IEEE or viewed at http://standards.ieee.org/ipr/disclaimers.html.
Notice and Disclaimer of Liability Concerning the Use of IEEE Standards
Documents
IEEE Standards documents (standards, recommended practices, and guides), both full-use and trial-use, are
developed within IEEE Societies and the Standards Coordinating Committees of the IEEE Standards
Association (“IEEE SA”) Standards Board. IEEE (“the Institute”) develops its standards through a
consensus development process, approved by the American National Standards Institute (“ANSI”), which
brings together volunteers representing varied viewpoints and interests to achieve the final product. IEEE
Standards are documents developed through scientific, academic, and industry-based technical working
groups. Volunteers in IEEE working groups are not necessarily members of the Institute 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 Standards do not guarantee or ensure safety, security, health, or environmental protection, or ensure
against interference with or from other devices or networks. Implementers and users of IEEE Standards
documents are responsible for determining and complying with all appropriate safety, security,
environmental, health, and interference protection practices and all applicable laws and regulations.
IEEE does not warrant or represent the accuracy or content of the material contained in its standards, and
expressly disclaims all warranties (express, implied and statutory) not included in this or any other
document relating to the standard, including, but not limited to, the warranties of: merchantability; fitness
for a particular purpose; non-infringement; and quality, accuracy, effectiveness, currency, or completeness
of material. In addition, IEEE disclaims any and all conditions relating to: results; and workmanlike effort.
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 his
or her 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:
PROCUREMENT OF 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 development process involves the review of documents in English only. In the event
that an IEEE standard is translated, only the English version published by IEEE should be considered the
approved IEEE standard.
Official statements
A statement, written or oral, that is not processed in accordance with the IEEE SA Standards Board
Operations Manual 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. At lectures,
symposia, seminars, or educational courses, an individual presenting information on IEEE standards shall
make it clear that his or her views should be considered the personal views of that individual rather than the
formal position of IEEE.
Comments on standards
Comments for revision of IEEE Standards documents are welcome from any interested party, regardless of
membership affiliation with IEEE. However, IEEE does not provide 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
Standards Coordinating Committees 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 revisions to an IEEE
standard is welcome to join the relevant IEEE working group.
Comments on standards should be submitted to the following address:
Secretary, IEEE SA Standards Board
445 Hoes Lane
Piscataway, NJ 08854 USA
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 imply 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.
Copyrights
IEEE draft and approved standards are copyrighted by IEEE under US and international copyright laws.
They are made available by IEEE and are adopted for a wide variety of both public and private uses. These
include both use, by reference, in laws and regulations, and use in private self-regulation, standardization,
and the promotion of engineering practices and methods. By making these documents available for use and
adoption by public authorities and private users, IEEE does not waive any rights in copyright to the
documents.

Photocopies
Subject to payment of the appropriate fee, IEEE will grant users a limited, non-exclusive license to
photocopy portions of any individual standard for company or organizational internal use or individual, non-
commercial use only. To arrange for payment of licensing fees, please contact Copyright Clearance Center,
Customer Service, 222 Rosewood Drive, Danvers, MA 01923 USA; +1 978 750 8400. Permission to

the Copyright Clearance Center.
Updating of IEEE Standards documents
Users of IEEE Standards documents should be aware that these documents may be superseded at any time
by the issuance of new editions or may be amended from time to time through the issuance of amendments,
corrigenda, or errata. An official IEEE document at any point in time consists of the current edition of the
document together with any amendments, corrigenda, or errata then in effect.
Every IEEE standard is subjected to review at least every 10 years. When a document is more than 10 years
old and has not undergone a revision process, it is reasonable to conclude that its contents, although still of
some value, do not wholly reflect the present state of the art. Users are cautioned to check to determine that
they have the latest edition of any IEEE standard.
In order to determine whether a given document is the current edition and whether it has been amended
through the issuance of amendments, corrigenda, or errata, visit IEEE Xplore at http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/ or
contact IEEE at the address listed previously. For more information about the IEEE SA or IEEE’s standards
development process, visit the IEEE SA Website at http://standards.ieee.org.
Errata
Errata, if any, for IEEE standards can be accessed via https://standards.ieee.org/standard/index.html. Search
for standard number and year of approval to access the web page of the published standard. Errata links are
located under the Additional Resources Details section. Errata are also available in IEEE Xplore: https://
ieeexplore.ieee.org/browse/standards/collection/ieee/. Users are encouraged to periodically check for errata.
Patents
Attention is called to the possibility that implementation of this standard may require use of subject matter
covered by patent rights. By publication of this standard, no position is taken by the IEEE with respect to the
existence or validity of any patent rights in connection therewith. If a patent holder or patent applicant has
filed a statement of assurance via an Accepted Letter of Assurance, then the statement is listed on the IEEE
SA Website at https://standards.ieee.org/about/sasb/patcom/patents.html. Letters of Assurance may indicate
whether the Submitter is willing or unwilling to grant licenses under patent rights without compensation or
under reasonable rates, with reasonable terms and conditions that are demonstrably free of any unfair
discrimination to applicants desiring to obtain such licenses.
Essential Patent Claims may exist for which a Letter of Assurance has not been received. The IEEE is not
responsible for identifying Essential Patent Claims for which a license may be required, for conducting
inquiries into the legal validity or scope of Patents Claims, or determining whether any licensing terms or
conditions provided in connection with submission of a Letter of Assurance, if any, or in any licensing
agreements are reasonable or non-discriminatory. Users of this standard are expressly advised that
determination of the validity of any patent rights, and the risk of infringement of such rights, is entirely their
own responsibility. Further information may be obtained from the IEEE Standards Association.

Introduction
This introduction is not part of IEEE Std 802.22–2019, IEEE Standard for Information Technology—
Telecommunications and information exchange between systems—Wireless Regional Area Networks (WRAN)
Specific requirements—Part 22: Cognitive Wireless RAN Medium Access Control (MAC) and Physical Layer
(PHY) Specifications: Policies and Procedures for Operation in the Bands that Allow Spectrum Sharing where the
Communications Devices May Opportunistically Operate in the Spectrum of Primary Service.
This standard specifies the air interface, including the cognitive radio MAC and PHY, of point-to-multipoint
and backhaul WRANs comprised of a professional fixed BS with fixed and portable user terminals. The
standard specifies operation in the bands that allow spectrum sharing where the communications devices
may opportunistically operate in the spectrum of the primary service, such as the VHF/UHF TV broadcast
bands between 54 MHz to 862 MHz, and the 1300 MHz to 1750 MHz and 2700 MHz to 3700 MHz bands
provided the regulatory regime allows it.

ISO/IEC/IEEE DIS 8802-22:2021(E)
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 ISO/IEC documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with
the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives or
www.iec.ch/members_experts/refdocs).
IEEE Standards documents are developed within the IEEE Societies and the Standards Coordinating
Committees of the IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) Standards Board. The IEEE develops its
standards through a consensus development process, approved by the American National Standards
Institute, which brings together volunteers representing varied viewpoints and interests to achieve the
final product. Volunteers are not necessarily members of the Institute and serve without compensation.
While the IEEE administers the process and establishes rules to promote fairness in the consensus
development process, the IEEE does not independently evaluate, test, or verify the accuracy of any of the
information contained in its standards.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details
of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents) or the IEC list of patent
declarations received (see patents.iec.ch).
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. In the IEC, see www.iec.ch/understanding-standards.
ISO/IEC/IEEE 8802-22 was prepared by the LAN/MAN of the IEEE Computer Society (as IEEE Std
802.22-2019) and drafted in accordance with its editorial rules. It was adopted, under the “fast-track
procedure” 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.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO/IEC/IEEE 8802-22:2015), which has been
technically revised.
A list of all parts in the ISO/IEC/IEEE 8802 series can be found on the ISO and IEC websites.
Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A
complete listing of these bodies can be found at www.iso.org/members.html and www.iec.ch/national-
committees.

1 Important Notices and Disclaimers Concerning IEEE Standards Documents
2 IEEE documents are made available for use subject to important notices and legal disclaimers. These
3 notices and disclaimers, or a reference to this page, appear in all standards and may be found under the
4 heading “Important Notices and Disclaimers Concerning IEEE Standards Documents.” They can also be
5 obtained on request from IEEE or viewed at http://standards.ieee.org/IPR/disclaimers.html.
6 Notice and Disclaimer of Liability Concerning the Use of IEEE Standards
7 Documents
8 IEEE Standards documents (standards, recommended practices, and guides), both full-use and trial-use, are
9 developed within IEEE Societies and the Standards Coordinating Committees of the IEEE Standards
10 Association (“IEEE-SA”) Standards Board. IEEE (“the Institute”) develops its standards through a
11 consensus development process, approved by the American National Standards Institute (“ANSI”), which
12 brings together volunteers representing varied viewpoints and interests to achieve the final product. IEEE
13 Standards are documents developed through scientific, academic, and industry-based technical working
14 groups. Volunteers in IEEE working groups are not necessarily members of the Institute and participate
15 without compensation from IEEE. While IEEE administers the process and establishes rules to promote
16 fairness in the consensus development process, IEEE does not independently evaluate, test, or verify the
17 accuracy of any of the information or the soundness of any judgments contained in its standards.
18 IEEE Standards do not guarantee or ensure safety, security, health, or environmental protection, or ensure
19 against interference with or from other devices or networks. Implementers and users of IEEE Standards
20 documents are responsible for determining and complying with all appropriate safety, security,
21 environmental, health, and interference protection practices and all applicable laws and regulations.
22 IEEE does not warrant or represent the accuracy or content of the material contained in its standards, and
23 expressly disclaims all warranties (express, implied and statutory) not included in this or any other
24 document relating to the standard, including, but not limited to, the warranties of: merchantability; fitness
25 for a particular purpose; non-infringement; and quality, accuracy, effectiveness, currency, or completeness
26 of material. In addition, IEEE disclaims any and all conditions relating to: results; and workmanlike effort.
27 IEEE standards documents are supplied “AS IS” and “WITH ALL FAULTS.”
28 Use of an IEEE standard is wholly voluntary. The existence of an IEEE standard does not imply that there
29 are no other ways to produce, test, measure, purchase, market, or provide other goods and services related
30 to the scope of the IEEE standard. Furthermore, the viewpoint expressed at the time a standard is approved
31 and issued is subject to change brought about through developments in the state of the art and comments
32 received from users of the standard.
33 In publishing and making its standards available, IEEE is not suggesting or rendering professional or other
34 services for, or on behalf of, any person or entity nor is IEEE undertaking to perform any duty owed by any
35 other person or entity to another. Any person utilizing any IEEE Standards document, should rely upon his
36 or her own independent judgment in the exercise of reasonable care in any given circumstances or, as
37 appropriate, seek the advice of a competent professional in determining the appropriateness of a given
38 IEEE standard.
39 IN NO EVENT SHALL IEEE BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL,
40 EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO:
41 PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES; LOSS OF USE, DATA, OR PROFITS;
42 OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION) HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY,
43 WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR
44 OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE PUBLICATION, USE OF, OR RELIANCE
45 UPON ANY STANDARD, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE AND
46 REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH DAMAGE WAS FORESEEABLE.

1 Translations
2 The IEEE consensus development process involves the review of documents in English only. In the event
3 that an IEEE standard is translated, only the English version published by IEEE should be considered the
4 approved IEEE standard.
5 Official statements
6 A statement, written or oral, that is not processed in accordance with the IEEE-SA Standards Board
7 Operations Manual shall not be considered or inferred to be the official position of IEEE or any of its
8 committees and shall not be considered to be, or be relied upon as, a formal position of IEEE. At lectures,
9 symposia, seminars, or educational courses, an individual presenting information on IEEE standards shall
10 make it clear that his or her views should be considered the personal views of that individual rather than the
11 formal position of IEEE.
12 Comments on standards
13 Comments for revision of IEEE Standards documents are welcome from any interested party, regardless of
14 membership affiliation with IEEE. However, IEEE does not provide consulting information or advice
15 pertaining to IEEE Standards documents. Suggestions for changes in documents should be in the form of a
16 proposed change of text, together with appropriate supporting comments. Since IEEE standards represent a
17 consensus of concerned interests, it is important that any responses to comments and questions also receive
18 the concurrence of a balance of interests. For this reason, IEEE and the members of its societies and
19 Standards Coordinating Committees are not able to provide an instant response to comments or questions
20 except in those cases where the matter has previously been addressed. For the same reason, IEEE does not
21 respond to interpretation requests. Any person who would like to participate in revisions to an IEEE
22 standard is welcome to join the relevant IEEE working group.
23 Comments on standards should be submitted to the following address:
24 Secretary, IEEE-SA Standards Board
25 445 Hoes Lane
26 Piscataway, NJ 08854 USA
27 Laws and regulations
28 Users of IEEE Standards documents should consult all applicable laws and regulations. Compliance with
29 the provisions of any IEEE Standards document does not imply compliance to any applicable regulatory
30 requirements. Implementers of the standard are responsible for observing or referring to the applicable
31 regulatory requirements. IEEE does not, by the publication of its standards, intend to urge action that is not
32 in compliance with applicable laws, and these documents may not be construed as doing so.
33 Copyrights
34 IEEE draft and approved standards are copyrighted by IEEE under U.S. and international copyright laws.
35 They are made available by IEEE and are adopted for a wide variety of both public and private uses. These
36 include both use, by reference, in laws and regulations, and use in private self-regulation, standardization,
37 and the promotion of engineering practices and methods. By making these documents available for use and
38 adoption by public authorities and private users, IEEE does not waive any rights in copyright to the
39 documents.

1 Photocopies
2 Subject to payment of the appropriate fee, IEEE will grant users a limited, non-exclusive license to
3 photocopy portions of any individual standard for company or organizational internal use or individual,
4 non-commercial use only. To arrange for payment of licensing fees, please contact Copyright Clearance
5 Center, Customer Service, 222 Rosewood Drive, Danvers, MA 01923 USA; +1 978 750 8400. Permission
6 to photocopy portions of any individual standard for educational classroom use can also be obtained
7 through the Copyright Clearance Center.
8 Updating of IEEE Standards documents
9 Users of IEEE Standards documents should be aware that these documents may be superseded at any time
10 by the issuance of new editions or may be amended from time to time through the issuance of amendments,
11 corrigenda, or errata. A current IEEE document at any point in time consists of the current edition of the
12 document together with any amendments, corrigenda, or errata then in effect.
13 Every IEEE standard is subjected to review at least every ten years. When a document is more than ten
14 years old and has not undergone a revision process, it is reasonable to conclude that its contents, although
15 still of some value, do not wholly reflect the present state of the art. Users are cautioned to check to
16 determine that they have the latest edition of any IEEE standard.
17 In order to determine whether a given document is the current edition and whether it has been amended
18 through the issuance of amendments, corrigenda, or errata, visit the IEEE Xplore at
19 http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/ or contact IEEE at the address listed previously. For more information about the
20 IEEE-SA or IEEE’s standards development process, visit the IEEE-SA Website at http://standards.ieee.org.
21 Errata
22 Errata, if any, for all IEEE standards can be accessed on the IEEE-SA Website at the following URL:
23 http://standards.ieee.org/findstds/errata/index.html. Users are encouraged to check this URL for errata
24 periodically.
25 Patents
26 Attention is called to the possibility that implementation of this standard may require use of subject matter
27 covered by patent rights. By publication of this standard, no position is taken by the IEEE with respect to
28 the existence or validity of any patent rights in connection therewith. If a patent holder or patent applicant
29 has filed a statement of assurance via an Accepted Letter of Assurance, then the statement is listed on the
30 IEEE-SA Website at http://standards.ieee.org/about/sasb/patcom/patents.html. Letters of Assurance may
31 indicate whether the Submitter is willing or unwilling to grant licenses under patent rights without
32 compensation or under reasonable rates, with reasonable terms and conditions that are demonstrably free of
33 any unfair discrimination to applicants desiring to obtain such licenses.
34 Essential Patent Claims may exist for which a Letter of Assurance has not been received. The IEEE is not
35 responsible for identifying Essential Patent Claims for which a license may be required, for conducting
36 inquiries into the legal validity or scope of Patents Claims, or determining whether any licensing terms or
37 conditions provided in connection with submission of a Letter of Assurance, if any, or in any licensing
38 agreements are reasonable or non-discriminatory. Users of this standard are expressly advised that
39 determination of the validity of any patent rights, and the risk of infringement of such rights, is entirely
40 their own responsibility. Further information may be obtained from the IEEE Standards Association.

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 ISO/IEC documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with
the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives or
www.iec.ch/members_experts/refdocs).
IEEE Standards documents are developed within the IEEE Societies and the Standards Coordinating
Committees of the IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) Standards Board. The IEEE develops its
standards through a consensus development process, approved by the American National Standards
Institute, which brings together volunteers representing varied viewpoints and interests to achieve the
final product. Volunteers are not necessarily members of the Institute and serve without compensation.
While the IEEE administers the process and establishes rules to promote fairness in the consensus
development process, the IEEE does not independently evaluate, test, or verify the accuracy of any of the
information contained in its standards.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details
of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents) or the IEC list of patent
declarations received (see patents.iec.ch).
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. In the IEC, see www.iec.ch/understanding-standards.
ISO/IEC/IEEE 8802-22 was prepared by the LAN/MAN of the IEEE Computer Society (as IEEE Std
802.22-2019) and drafted in accordance with its editorial rules. It was adopted, under the “fast-track
procedure” 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.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO/IEC/IEEE 8802-22:2015), which has been
technically revised.
A list of all parts in the ISO/IEC/IEEE 8802 series can be found on the ISO and IEC websites.
Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A
complete listing of these bodies can be found at www.iso.org/members.html and www.iec.ch/national-
committees.

Important Notices and Disclaimers Concerning IEEE Standards Documents
IEEE documents are made available for use subject to important notices and legal disclaimers. These notices
and disclaimers, or a reference to this page, appear in all standards and may be found under the heading
“Important Notices and Disclaimers Concerning IEEE Standards Documents.” They can also be obtained on
request from IEEE or viewed at http://standards.ieee.org/ipr/disclaimers.html.
Notice and Disclaimer of Liability Concerning the Use of IEEE Standards
Documents
IEEE Standards documents (standards, recommended practices, and guides), both full-use and trial-use, are
developed within IEEE Societies and the Standards Coordinating Committees of the IEEE Standards
Association (“IEEE SA”) Standards Board. IEEE (“the Institute”) develops its standards through a
consensus development process, approved by the American National Standards Institute (“ANSI”), which
brings together volunteers representing varied viewpoints and interests to achieve the final product. IEEE
Standards are documents developed through scientific, academic, and industry-based technical working
groups. Volunteers in IEEE working groups are not necessarily members of the Institute 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 Standards do not guarantee or ensure safety, security, health, or environmental protection, or ensure
against interference with or from other devices or networks. Implementers and users of IEEE Standards
documents are responsible for determining and complying with all appropriate safety, security,
environmental, health, and interference protection practices and all applicable laws and regulations.
IEEE does not warrant or represent the accuracy or content of the material contained in its standards, and
expressly disclaims all warranties (express, implied and statutory) not included in this or any other
document relating to the standard, including, but not limited to, the warranties of: merchantability; fitness
for a particular purpose; non-infringement; and quality, accuracy, effectiveness, currency, or completeness
of material. In addition, IEEE disclaims any and all conditions relating to: results; and workmanlike effort.
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 his
or her 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:
PROCUREMENT OF 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 development process involves the review of documents in English only. In the event
that an IEEE standard is translated, only the English version published by IEEE should be considered the
approved IEEE standard.
Official statements
A statement, written or oral, that is not processed in accordance with the IEEE SA Standards Board
Operations Manual 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. At lectures,
symposia, seminars, or educational courses, an individual presenting information on IEEE standards shall
make it clear that his or her views should be considered the personal views of that individual rather than the
formal position of IEEE.
Comments on standards
Comments for revision of IEEE Standards documents are welcome from any interested party, regardless of
membership affiliation with IEEE. However, IEEE does not provide 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
Standards Coordinating Committees 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 revisions to an IEEE
standard is welcome to join the relevant IEEE working group.
Comments on standards should be submitted to the following address:
Secretary, IEEE SA Standards Board
445 Hoes Lane
Piscataway, NJ 08854 USA
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 imply 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.
Copyrights
IEEE draft and approved standards are copyrighted by IEEE under US and international copyright laws.
They are made available by IEEE and are adopted for a wide variety of both public and private uses. These
include both use, by reference, in laws and regulations, and use in private self-regulation, standardization,
and the promotion of engineering practices and methods. By making these documents available for use and
adoption by public authorities and private users, IEEE does not waive any rights in copyright to the
documents.

Photocopies
Subject to payment of the appropriate fee, IEEE will grant users a limited, non-exclusive license to
photocopy portions of any individual standard for company or organizational internal use or individual, non-
commercial use only. To arrange for payment of licensing fees, please contact Copyright Clearance Center,
Customer Service, 222 Rosewood Drive, Danvers, MA 01923 USA; +1 978 750 8400. Permission to
photocopy portions of any individual standard for educational classroom use can also be obtained through
the Copyright Clearance Center.
Updating of IEEE Standards documents
Users of IEEE Standards documents should be aware that these documents may be superseded at any time
by the issuance of new editions or may be amended from time to time through the issuance of amendments,
corrigenda, or errata. An official IEEE document at any point in time consists of the current edition of the
document together with any amendments, corrigenda, or errata then in effect.
Every IEEE standard is subjected to review at least every 10 years. When a document is more than 10 years
old and has not undergone a revision process, it is reasonable to conclude that its contents, although still of
some value, do not wholly reflect the present state of the art. Users are cautioned to check to determine that
they have the latest edition of any IEEE standard.
In order to determine whether a given document is the current edition and whether it has been amended
through the issuance of amendments, corrigenda, or errata, visit IEEE Xplore at http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/ or
contact IEEE at the address listed previously. For more information about the IEEE SA or IEEE’s standards
development process, visit the IEEE SA Website at http://standards.ieee.org.
Errata
Errata, if any, for IEEE standards can be accessed via https://standards.ieee.org/standard/index.html. Search
for standard number and year of approval to access the web page of the published standard. Errata links are
located under the Additional Resources Details section. Errata are also available in IEEE Xplore: https://
ieeexplore.ieee.org/browse/standards/collection/ieee/. Users are encouraged to periodically check for errata.
Patents
Attention is called to the possibility that implementation of this standard may require use of subject matter
covered by patent rights. By publication of this standard, no position is taken by the IEEE with respect to the
existence or validity of any patent rights in connection therewith. If a patent holder or patent applicant has
filed a statement of assurance via an Accepted Letter of Assurance, then the statement is listed on the IEEE
SA Website at https://standards.ieee.org/about/sasb/patcom/patents.html. Letters of Assurance may indicate
whether the Submitter is willing or unwilling to grant licenses under patent rights without compensation or
under reasonable rates, with reasonable terms and conditions that are demonstrably free of any unfair
discrimination to applicants desiring to obtain such licenses.
Essential Patent Claims may exist for which a Letter of Assurance has not been received. The IEEE is not
responsible for identifying Essential Patent Claims for which a license may be required, for conducting
inquiries into the legal validity or scope of Patents Claims, or determining whether any licensing terms or
conditions provided in connection with submission of a Letter of Assurance, if any, or in any licensing
agreements are reasonable or non-discriminatory. Users of this standard are expressly advised that
determination of the validity of any patent rights, and the risk of infringement of such rights, is entirely their
own responsibility. Further information may be obtained from the IEEE Standards Association.
