Provisional Message Formats and Protocols for the DABS 32-Character Alphanumeric Display.

Abstract

Formats and protocols are described for tactical ATC displays to be driven by the Standard Message interface of a DABS transponder and capable of handling a succession of data transmissions, each of which is individually acknowledged via a transponder reply before the transmission of the succeeding segment. Specific codes are defined for a display device of up to 32 alphanumeric characters. Any displays defined or implied by this document are intended solely for use in the DABS test and evaluation program, and are not necessarily representative of recommended or required display devices for an operational DABS system.
