6. Participants, Patents, and Duty to Inform
July 2009
doc.: IEEE /0840r0
Participants, Patents, and Duty to Inform
All participants in this meeting have certain obligations under the IEEE-SA Patent Policy.
Participants [Note: Quoted text excerpted from IEEE-SA Standards Board Bylaws subclause 6.2]:
“Shall inform the IEEE (or cause the IEEE to be informed)” of the identity of each “holder of any potential Essential Patent Claims of which they are personally aware” if the claims are owned or controlled by the participant or the entity the participant is from, employed by, or otherwise represents
“Should inform the IEEE (or cause the IEEE to be informed)” of the identity of “any other holders of potential Essential Patent Claims” (that is, third parties that are not affiliated with the participant, with the participant’s employer, or with anyone else that the participant is from or otherwise represents)
The above does not apply if the patent claim is already the subject of an Accepted Letter of Assurance that applies to the proposed standard(s) under consideration by this group
Early identification of holders of potential Essential Patent Claims is strongly encouraged
No duty to perform a patent search

All participants should be familiar with their obligations under the IEEE-SA Policies & Procedures for standards development.
Patent Policy is stated in these sources:
IEEE-SA Standards Boards Bylaws
IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual

8. Call for Potentially Essential Patents
July 2009
doc.: IEEE /0840r0
Call for Potentially Essential Patents
If anyone in this meeting is personally aware of the holder of any patent claims that are potentially essential to implementation of the proposed standard(s) under consideration by this group and that are not already the subject of an Accepted Letter of Assurance:
Either speak up now or
Provide the chair of this group with the identity of the holder(s) of any and all such claims as soon as possible or
Cause an LOA to be submitted

9. Participation in IEEE 802 Meetings
All participation in IEEE 802 Working Group meetings is on an individual basis
•     Participants in the IEEE standards development individual process shall act based on their qualifications and experience. ( section 5.2.1)
•    IEEE 802 Working Group membership is by individual; “Working Group members shall participate in the consensus process in a manner consistent with their professional expert opinion as individuals, and not as organizational representatives”. ( section 4.2.1)
You have an obligation to act and vote as an individual and not under the direction of any other individual or group. Your obligation to act and vote as an individual applies in all cases, regardless of any external commitments, agreements, contracts, or orders.
You shall not direct the actions or votes of any other member of an IEEE 802 Working Group or retaliate against any other member for their actions or votes within IEEE 802 Working Group meetings, see section and section 3.4.1, list item x
By participating in IEEE 802 meetings, you accept these requirements. If you do not agree to these policies then you shall not participate.

10. Other Guidelines for IEEE WG Meetings
All IEEE-SA standards meetings shall be conducted in compliance with all applicable laws, including antitrust and competition laws.
Don’t discuss the interpretation, validity, or essentiality of patents/patent claims.
Don’t discuss specific license rates, terms, or conditions.
Relative costs, including licensing costs of essential patent claims, of different technical approaches may be discussed in standards development meetings.
Technical considerations remain primary focus
Don’t discuss or engage in the fixing of product prices, allocation of customers, or division of sales markets.
Don’t discuss the status or substance of ongoing or threatened litigation.
Don’t be silent if inappropriate topics are discussed … do formally object.
See IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual, clause and “Promoting Competition and Innovation: What You Need to Know about the IEEE Standards Association's Antitrust and Competition Policy” for more details.

AANI SC Background
At the July 802 Plenary meeting in San Diego passed a motion to form this standing committee [1]
To address: the IMT-2020 external proposal (option B3)
To support address: “IEEE “5G” specification” (option A)
To report to on 802 and non-802 activity on the network interface
sent a LS (11-16/1101r10) to 3GPP RAN and SA (9/17)
The LS was presented and discussed at the 3GPP RAN and SA
The LS was forwarded to the 3GPP PCG (802 also sent an LS to PCG)
The 802 EC sent an LS to 3GPP PCG asking for improved communication
RAN and SA both stated there is work to be done, PCG recommended using LSs and Company contributions to progress the work.
Activity related to “IEEE “5G” specification” (option A)
802.1CF OmniRAN Ad Hoc is creating an IC to progress “IEEE ‘5G’”
