Abstract
ISO/IEC 17839-1:2014 establishes
- functional architecture of a Biometric System-on-Card
- definition of type S1 (fully ISO/IEC 7810 compliant) and type S2 implementation of a Biometric System-on-Card
- sensor types in a Biometric System-on-Card
- minimum requirements to a Biometric System-on-Card with respect to
- discriminative power (i.e. biometric accuracy criteria)
- interfaces
- power supply options
The following aspects are out of scope of ISO/IEC 17839-1:2014:
- off-card biometric comparison, storage-on-card
- work-load sharing implementations
- detailed specification and configuration of individual components
ISO/IEC 17839-1:2014 provides a functional architectural description of a Biometric System-on-Card and describes how the interfaces are mapped using existing commands and data structures from other International Standards.
