DRAFT - Working Paper ASP TSGWP11-01 <strong>for</strong> review by the TSG during the meeting in June 2011 in Paris<br />

Appendix CD CD-5<br />

(applicable in 1996) only, then the <strong>Mode</strong> S subnetwork number should be set to 1.<br />

If the installed DTE or the <strong>Mode</strong> S specific services meet the requirements of Amendment 73 (applicable in 1998) only<br />

<strong>and</strong>/or the transponder register <strong>for</strong>mats meet the requirements of Doc 9688 version 1, then the <strong>Mode</strong> S subnetwork<br />

number should be set to 2.<br />

If the installed DTE or the <strong>Mode</strong> S specific services meet the requirements of Amendment 77, then the <strong>Mode</strong> S<br />

subnetwork number should be set to 3.<br />

If the installed DTE or the <strong>Mode</strong> S specific services meet the requirements of ICAO Doc 9871, Edition 1, then the <strong>Mode</strong><br />

S subnetwork version number should be set to 4.<br />

If the installed DTE or the <strong>Mode</strong> S specific services meet the requirements of ICAO Doc 9871, Edition 2, which<br />

additionally complies with RTCA DO-181D <strong>and</strong> EUROCAE ED-73C, including Change 1, then the <strong>Mode</strong> S subnetwork<br />

version number should be set to 5.<br />

The setting of these bits is static.<br />

CD.2.4.1.4 BIT 24 (TRANSPONDER ENHANCED PROTOCOL INDICATOR)<br />

This bit is set to 1 when the transponder is a level 5 transponder. This bit is set by the transponder itself. It is a static bit.<br />

CD.2.4.1.5 BIT 25 (MODE S SPECIFIC SERVICES CAPABILITY)<br />

This bit should be set as specified in Table A-2-16, item 2 of Appendix A.<br />

When bit 25 is set to 1, it indicates that at least one <strong>Mode</strong> S specific service is supported <strong>and</strong> the particular capability<br />

reports should be checked.<br />

Note.— Registers accessed by BDS codes 0,2; 0,3; 0,4; 1,0; 1,7 through 1,C; 2,0 <strong>and</strong> 3,0 do not affect the setting of<br />

bit 25.<br />

This bit actually indicates if the aircraft installation enables the loading of airborne parameters in at least one register not<br />

accessed by the BDS codes mentioned above.<br />

The setting of this bit is preferably static.<br />

Draft<br />

CD.2.4.1.6 BITS 26-32 (UPLINK AND DOWNLINK ELM THROUGHPUT CAPABILITY)<br />

Bits 26-28 indicate the uplink ELM average throughput capability. These bits are set by the transponder <strong>and</strong> are<br />

preferably static.<br />

Bits 29-32 indicate the throughput capability of downlink ELM containing the maximum number of ELM segments that<br />

the transponder can deliver in response to an interrogation. These bits are set by the transponder <strong>and</strong> are preferably<br />

static.<br />

CD.2.4.1.7 BIT 33 (AIRCRAFT IDENTIFICATION CAPABILITY)<br />

This bit should be set as required in Annex 10, Volume IV, §3.1.2.9.1.3:<br />

Aircraft identification capability report. Transponders which respond to a ground-initiated request <strong>for</strong> aircraft identification<br />

shall report this capability in the data link capability report (Annex 10, Volume IV, §3.1.2.6.10.2.2.2) by setting bit 33 of<br />

the MB subfield to 1.<br />

This bit actually indicates whether the aircraft installation supports an interface to load the aircraft identification into the<br />

transponder register 2016. It does not take into account the consistency of the data loaded into the register.<br />
