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.
