Table C-11. “Selected Heading Sign” Subfield Encoding<br />

Meaning<br />

Data being used to encode “ME” bits 32 – 39 (Message bits 64 – 71) is<br />

Positive in an angular system having a range between +180 <strong>and</strong> –180<br />

degrees. (For an Angular Weighted Binary system which ranges from 0.0 to<br />

360 degrees, the sign bit is positive or Zero <strong>for</strong> all values that are less than<br />

180 degrees). See Table C-12.<br />

Data being used to encode “ME” bits 32 – 39 (Message bits 64 – 71) is<br />

Negative in an angular system having a range between +180 <strong>and</strong> –180<br />

degrees. (For an Angular Weighted Binary system which ranges from 0.0 to<br />

360 degrees, the sign bit is ONE <strong>for</strong> all values that are greater than 180<br />

degrees). See Table C-12.<br />

C.2.3.9.8 Selected Heading<br />

a. The “Selected Heading” subfield is an 8-bit (“ME” bits 32 – 39, Message bits 64 – 71) field that contains<br />

Selected Heading data encoded in accordance with Table C-12.<br />

b. Encoding of Selected Heading data in “ME” bits 31 – 39 (Message bits 63 – 71) shall be rounded so as<br />

to preserve accuracy of the source data within ±½ LSB.<br />

c. Whenever there is NO valid Selected Heading data available, then the Selected Heading Status, Sign,<br />

<strong>and</strong> Data subfields (“ME” bits 30 – 39, Message bits 62 – 71) shall be set to ZERO (0) as indicated in<br />

Table C-12.<br />

C.2.3.9.9 Navigation Accuracy Category <strong>for</strong> Position (NACP)<br />

This 4-bit (“ME” bits 40 – 43, Message bits 72 – 75) subfield shall be used to indicate the Navigational<br />

Accuracy Category of the navigation in<strong>for</strong>mation used as the basis <strong>for</strong> the aircraft reported position. The<br />

NAC P subfield shall be encoded as shown in Table C-13. If an update has not been received from an onboard<br />

data source <strong>for</strong> NAC P within the past 2 seconds, then the NAC P subfield shall be encoded as a value<br />

indicating “Unknown Accuracy.”<br />
