New Standard

The purpose of this document is to recommend mechanical, environmental

and electrical standards for broadband radio frequency (RF) devices whose
primary purpose is to divide signals presented to an input port among two or
more output ports with a fixed division ratio that is nominally independent of
frequency within the specified bandwidth limits of the device. Alternately,
such devices can be used to combine signals from several input ports into a
common output port. Its scope is limited to 75-ohm devices whose ports are
provided with type F connectors. The most common use for such devices is
on-premises RF signal distribution.

Develop an open standard for the design requirements of an air-flow-through

(AFT) cooled plug-in module having a 3U or 6U form factor, while retaining
the VITA 46 connector layout. Both 3U and 6U standard form factors are
offered using three defined pitch spacings, with an option to have alternate
air flow intake and exhaust paths. The intention of this standard is to
optimize SWAP.

The primary purpose of this specification is to assure acceptable electrical,
mechanical and environmental performance of the cable and connector
interface. The scope of this standard will be directed to acceptable
performance of impedance, galvanic action, loop resistance, cable retention,
intermodulation distortion, signal response, RF shielding, and watertight

family of standards defines a signal/spectrum protocol that expresses
spectrum observation, spectrum operations, and capabilities of RF devices.
This is done independent of manufacturer, equipment type, point of use in an
architecture and application. The intent of the VRT protocol is to enable RF
systems to migrate from proprietary stove-pipe architectures to interoperable
multi-function architectures.

health plans and Pharmacy Benefit Managers) to communicate formulary and benefit information to
prescribers via technology vendor systems.
Manufacturer Rebate Standard Provides a standardized format for the electronic submission of rebate
information from Pharmacy Management Organizations (PMOs) to Pharmaceutical Industry Contracting
Organizations (PICOs).
Medicaid Subrogation Standard Provides guidelines for the process whereby a Medicaid agency can
communicate to a processor for reimbursement. The state has reimbursed the pharmacy provider for
covered services and now is pursuing reimbursement from other payers for these services.
Medical Rebates Data Submission Standard Provides a standardized format for health plans rebate
submissions to multiple manufacturers throughout the industry. Implementation of the medical also
eliminates the need for manufacturers to create internal mapping processes to standardize unique data
formats from each health plan or third party administrator.
Post Adjudication Standard Provides a format for supplying detailed drug or utilization claim information
after the claim has been adjudicated.
Prescription File Transfer Standard Developed to create file formats for the purpose of electronically
transferring prescriptions between pharmacies.

clients, performing system database or platform changes, or other scenarios where an existing prior
authorization record is stored in one location and needs to be moved to another.
Product Identifiers Standard Developed to provide a standard for consistent formatting and utilization of
product identifiers in healthcare and to provide clarification for maintenance of these specific product
identifiers.
Retiree Drug Subsidy Standard Developed to assist in the automation of summarized drug cost and
related data transfer from one processor/pharmacy benefit manager to another processor/ pharmacy
benefit manager for continuation of the CMS Retiree Drug Subsidy (RDS) cost data reporting by the
receiving entity.
SCRIPT Standard Developed for transmitting prescription information electronically between
prescribers, providers, and other entities.
Specialized Standard Developed for transmitting information electronically between prescribers,
providers, and other entities. The standard addresses the electronic transmission of census information
about a patient between a facility and a pharmacy, medication therapy management transactions
between providers, payers, pharmacies, and other entities. It will include other transactions for electronic
exchanges between these entities in the future.
Telecommunication Standard Developed a standardized format for electronic communication of claims
and other transactions between pharmacy providers, insurance carriers, third-party administrators, and
other responsible parties.
Uniform Healthcare Payer Data Standard Developed a standard format for pharmacy claim data to
support the reporting requirements of claim data to states or their designees.

Standard No. 2000-2016)
Stakeholders: Dental care providers, healthcare and research
organizations, government agencies, dental schools and clinics, and
benefit providers.
Project Need: SNODENT provides a standardized oral health
terminology for the recording of clinical detail and patient
characteristics to provide consistent retrieval, transmission, and
analysis of data across healthcare systems and interoperability with
electronic health records.
SNODENT is a clinical terminology designed for use with electronic
health records that enables the capture and analysis of detailed oral
health data, including oral anatomical sites, oral health conditions,
findings, and other clinical concepts unique to dentistry. It provides a
standardized and interoperable code set for the representation of
clinical oral health descriptions captured by dentists.

BSR X9.135-201x, Secret Sharing Schemes (new standard)
Stakeholders: Product manufacturers, application manufacturers,
service (cloud) providers, security professionals.
Project Need: Due to the lack of standards, there are misconceptions
and misinformation about secret sharing methods, what they are,
where to store them, how they work, and when to use them in a secure
fashion. A new standard addressing shared secrets would provide
valuable information to product manufactures, service providers
(including cloud services), and end-users attempting to secure their
cryptographic systems.
Secret sharing schemes includes cryptographic methods for distributing
a secret amongst a group of participants, such that no one person has
access to the secret. Each participant is allocated a share of the secret,
so that, working in concert, some subgroup can recreate the secret,
such as a symmetric key or asymmetric private key. Secret sharing is
an important dual control with split knowledge security method,
commonly referred to as an N of M scheme. Where N < M, the secret
is split into M shares but only N participants are needed to recreate the
secret. While there is a vast amount of academic research and
proprietary implementations of secret sharing schemes, there are no
known industry standards. Consequently, there are two primary areas
of concern cryptographic strength and operational security.
Cryptographic strength includes mathematical equation complexity,
acceptable algebraic parameters, and N or M thresholds. Operational
security includes share creation, distribution, storage, and protection
mechanisms.

BSR/ESD SP5.1.4-201x, ESD Association Work in Progress for

Electrostatic Discharge Sensitivity Testing - Human Body Model
(HBM) Testing - Component Level - Sampling of Supply Pins (new
standard)
Stakeholders: Electronics industry including telecom, consumer,
medical, automotive, and industrial.
Project Need: The objective of this standard practice is to establish a
sampling method that does maintain a high coverage of device pin
combinations tested, but does avoid false failures due to wear-out,
caused by repeatedly stressing the same path. Additionally, a
significant reduction of test time is achieved for two-pin test systems.
The new Standard Practice to be developed will reference JS-001
-2014/2016 for all testing procedures except for pin combinations. The
proposed SP establishes an alternative method of defining stress pin
pairs using sampling to divide supply group pins into single pin
subgroups using the same pin groups as defined in Table 2A or Table
2B in JS-001-2014/2016.

Project Need: This standard practice provides guidance based on a
two-level approach on what necessary and important information has to
be shared between automotive OEM, Tier1 and semiconductor
manufacturer to solve EOS issues.
This standard practice establishes standard information flow processes
to help solve and reduce EOS problems in the automotive industry in a
fast and harmonized way.
