Abstract

This document establishes:

     functional architecture of a Biometric System-on-Card (BSoC);

     definition of Type ID-1 BSoC (ISO/IEC 7810 conformant) and Type ID-T BSoC (see ISO/IEC 18328-2:2021, Annex A) implementation of a BSoC;

     sensor types in a BSoC;

     requirements to a BSoC with respect to:

    discriminative power (i.e. biometric accuracy criteria);

    interfaces;

    power supply options.

     The following aspects are out of scope of this document (see ISO/IEC 24787-1):

     off-card biometric comparison, storage-on-card;

     on-card biometric comparison (sensor-off-card);

     work-sharing implementations;

     detailed specification and configuration of individual components.

This document provides a functional architectural description of a BSoC and describes how the interfaces are mapped using existing commands and data structures from other International Standards.
