Status snapshot verified from official standards-body pages on 2026-07-18. A published standard, technical specification, study report, work item, draft project, and pre-standardization group are different maturity levels. This page does not imply endorsement by any standards body.

| ETSI | ETSI GR ISC 004 V1.1.1 | Integrated Sensing And Communications (ISAC); Security, Privacy, Trustworthiness and Sustainability | Published group report announced 2026-03-02 | published-group-report | 2026-07-18 | Threats, mitigations, privacy, trust, and sustainability considerations |
| IEEE | IEEE P802.15.4ab | IEEE Draft Standard for Low-Rate Wireless Network Amendment 1: Enhanced Ultra Wide-Band (UWB) Physical Layers (PHYs) and Associated Medium Access and Control (MAC) sublayer Enhancements | Active PAR at verification | active-draft-project | 2026-07-18 | Enhanced ultra-wideband capabilities, including sensing-related work; do not cite it as a published standard until IEEE SA reports publication |
- Link to the official organization record, not a search result, news repost, or unrelated IEEE document number.
- Record the item type, release, version, and verification date.
- Distinguish normative requirements from informative studies and reports.
- Avoid claiming that a research paper is standards-compliant unless the cited standard and conformance evidence establish it.
- Recheck status before relying on this page, because drafts and releases can change after 2026-07-18.
This snapshot does not infer ISAC-specific spectrum allocation from a general WRC decision, does not turn a study report into a specification, and does not assign unverified KPI or use-case counts to 3GPP documents.
