6. Patents
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. This assurance shall be provided without coercion and prior to approval of the standard (or reaffirmation when a patent becomes known after initial approval of the standard). This assurance shall be a letter that is in the form of either
a) A general disclaimer to the effect that the patentee will not enforce any of its present or future patent(s) whose use would be required to implement the proposed IEEE standard against any person or entity using the patent(s) to comply with the standard or
b) A statement that a license will be made available without compensation or under reasonable rates, with reasonable terms and conditions that are demonstrably free of any unfair discrimination
This assurance shall apply, at a minimum, from the date of the standard's approval to the date of the standard's withdrawal and is irrevocable during that period.

Latest from IEEE-SA PatCom*
In regards to the presentation of information to a standards developmentgroup, PatCom has decided the following:
1. After a patent letter of assurance (LoA) has been accepted by PatCom, itis allowable for a presenter to state that an LoA has been filed by aPatent Holder, accepted by PatCom, and listed in the online listing of LoAsat http://standards.ieee.org/db/patents/index.html
Anyone seeking a copy of the accepted LoA should contact the PatComAdministrator.
2. Discussion of the content of accepted, submitted, or proposed LoAs isprohibited.
3. Discussion of licensing terms and conditions is prohibited.
