IEEE Registration Authority
Registration is the assignment of unambiguous names
to objects in a way which makes the assignment available to interested
parties. The IEEE Registration Authority was formed in 1986 to
register Organizationally Unique Identifiers (OUI) at the initiative of
the P802 (LAN/MAN) standards group.
The IEEE is recognized by ISO/IEC as the authorized Registration Authority
to provide this service world-wide. Since that time, the activities of
the Registration Authority have continued to expand. For

C63.5-2006
American National Standard for Electromagnetic Compatibility—Radiated
Emission Measurements in Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Control—Calibration
of Antennas (9 kHz to 40 GHz)
Methods for determining antenna factors of antennas used for radiated
emission measurements of electromagnetic interference (EMI) from 9 kHz
to 40 GHz are provided. Antennas included are linearly polarized antennas
such as loops, rods (monopoles), tuned dipoles, biconical dipoles, log-periodic
dipole arrays, hybrid linearly polarized arrays, broadband horns, etc.,
which are used in measurements governed by ANSI C63.4-2001. The methods
include standard site (i.e., 3-antenna), reference antenna, equivalent
capacitance substitution, standard transmitting loop, standard antenna,
and standard field methods.

IEEE Trial-Use Standard for Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments
(WAVE)-Resource Manager
This standard specifies a wireless access in vehicular environments (WAVE)
dedicated short-range communications (DSRC) application, known as the
WAVE resource manager (RM), designed to allow applications at remote sites
to communicate with devices known as onboard units (OBUs), which are mounted
in vehicles, through devices known as roadside units (RSUs), which are
mounted on the roadside. The WAVE RM, acting like an application layer,
multiplexes the communications of multiple remote applications, each communicating
with multiple OBUs. The purpose of the communication is to conduct information
interchange, needed to implement the requirements of the remote WAVE DSRC
applications.

1100-2005 EMERALD BOOK
IEEE Recommended Practice for Powering and Grounding Electronic Equipment
The IEEE Emerald Book presents a collection of consensus best practices
for the powering and grounding of electronic equipment used in commercial
and industrial applications. The main objective is to provide consensus
recommended practices in an area where conflicting information and conflicting
design philosophies have dominated. The recommended practices described
are intended to enhance equipment performance while maintaining a safe
installation.
