Participants, Patents and Duty to Inform
• All participants in this meeting have certain obligations under the IEEE-SA Patent Policy.
Participants:
– “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
• “Personal awareness” means that the participant “is personally aware that the holder
November have a potential Essential Patent Claim,” even if the participant is not personally
aware of the specific patents or patent claims
– “Should inform the IEEE (or cause the IEEE to be informed)” of the identity of “any
other holders of such 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
• Quoted text excerpted from IEEE-SA Standards Board Bylaws subclause 6.2
• Early identification of holders of potential Essential Patent Claims is strongly encouraged
• No duty to perform a patent search
