17、word ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical
18、committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in
19、the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare Internatio
20、nal Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of th
21、e elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO/IEC 16390 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC 31, Automatic identification and da

23、rights reserved vIntroduction The technology of bar coding is based on the recognition of patterns encoded in bars and spaces of defined dimensions. There are numerous methods of encoding information in bar code form, known as symbologies. Interleaved 2 of 5 is one such symbology. The rules defining
24、 the translation of characters into bar and space patterns and other essential features are known as the symbology specification. In the past, symbology specifications were developed and published by a number of organizations, resulting in certain instances in conflicting requirements for certain sy
25、mbologies. Manufacturers of bar code equipment and users of bar code technology require publicly available standard symbology specifications to which they can refer when developing equipment and application standards.

36、 zone. 4.3 Character encodation 4.3.1 Symbol character structure Data is encoded as interleaved pairs of symbol characters, the first of which comprises two wide and three narrow bars and the second of which comprises two wide and three narrow spaces, the first bar of the first character being follo
37、wed by the first space of the second character, then the second bar of the first character and the second space of the second character, and so on until the last space of the second character, which is directly followed by the first bar of the next symbol character pair (or stop pattern). 4.3.2 Data

40、 uses a modified binary coded decimal encoding scheme. The four left-most bit positions for each character are assigned weights of 1, 2, 4 and 7, from left to right; the fifth position is used for an even parity bit. The sum of the positional weights of the 1 bits is equivalent to the data character
41、 value, except in the case of the data character 0, where the weights 4 and 7 are applied. The parity bit ensures that there are always two 1 bits per character. The following algorithm defines the rules to convert numeric data into the symbol characters of an Interleaved 2 of 5 symbol: Step in Algo
42、rithm Example 1) Calculate check character if required by the application standard. See 4.7; 2) If the data string, including check characters, has an odd number of digits, add a leading zero; which becomes 367 0367 3) Subdivide the numeric string into digit pairs; which becomes 0367 03 and 67 4) En
43、code each digit pair in turn as follows: a) Encode the leading digit of the pair into a pattern of bars as shown in Table 1; b) Encode the second digit of the pair into a pattern of spaces as shown in Table 1; 0 (binary pattern 00110) 3 (binary pattern 11000) 5) Form each symbol character pair by ta
