ISO 18442:2013

Space data and information transfer systems — Space Link Extension — Application Program Interface for Return All Frames Service

Scope

ISO 18442:2013 specifies extensions to the API needed for support of the Return All Frames (RAF) service defined in CCSDS 911.1-B-2.
ISO 18442:2013 defines extensions to the SLE API in terms of:

the RAF-specific functionality provided by API components;
the RAF-specific interfaces provided by API components; and
the externally visible behavior associated with the RAF interfaces exported by the components.

It does not specify

individual implementations or products;
the internal design of the components; and
the technology used for communications.

ISO 18442:2013 defines only interfaces and behavior that must be provided by implementations supporting the Return All Frames service in addition to the specification in CCSDS 914.0-M-1.
