The contributor also acknowledges and accepts that this contribution may be made public by IEEE DySPAN-SC. Patent Policy and Procedures: The contributor is familiar with the IEEE Patent Policy and Procedures including the statement "IEEE standards may include the known use of patent(s), including patent applications, provided the IEEE receives assurance from the patent holder or applicant with respect to patents essential for compliance with both mandatory and optional portions of the standard." Early disclosure to IEEE DySPAN-SC and its Working Groups of patent information that might be relevant to the standard is essential to reduce the possibility for delays in the development process and increase the likelihood that the draft publication will be approved for publication. Please notify the Chair as early as possible, in written or electronic form, if patented technology (or technology under patent application) might be incorporated into a draft standard being developed within the IEEE DySPAN-SC Committee.
