Active Standard

IEEE 1451.1.6-2025

IEEE Standard for a Smart Transducer Interface for Sensors, Actuators, and Devices--Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) for Networked Device Communication

A method for transporting IEEE 1451™ messages over a network using Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) to establish a light-weight, simplified protocol structure to handle IEEE 1451 communications is defined by this standard. Also, the establishment of a light-weight, simplified protocol structure to handle IEEE 1451 communications over MQTT is enabled by this standard. Adding to the MQTT standards' recommended methods, three different formats of IEEE 1451.0™ message carriers are defined. Moreover, time-synchronization, security, and other useful extensions are also defined by this standard.

No Superseded Standards

These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.


No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards

These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
