The attached Report, IEEE-SA Records of IEEE Standards-Related Patents, lists IEEE Standards for which Letters of Assurance have been received from patent owners in accordance with the IEEE-SA Patent Policy. The Patent Policy is set forth in Section 6 of the IEEE-SA Standards Board Bylaws. Operational procedures relating to the Patent Policy are found in Section 6.3 of the IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual.

This report was first compiled in 1993 to provide information about the known patents that may affect the practice of IEEE Standards. Information about Letters of Assurance from 1993 forward have been posted to this report. Some Letters of Assurance received prior to 1993 have also been included in this report, but others may not have been entered into electronic form and may be available only in archived IEEE files.

An updated report is posted as new or revised information becomes known.

Note to all readers: The IEEE is not responsible for identifying patents or patent applications for which a license may be required to implement an IEEE standard or for conducting inquiries into the legal validity or scope of those patents that are brought to its attention.

Note to all readers: The IEEE takes no position with respect to the reasonableness of rates, terms, and conditions of the license agreements offered by patent holders or patent applicants. To that end, the IEEE will not review and does not endorse the contents nor confirm the continuing accuracy or consistency of any web sites listed in any patent letters of assurance received.
