All right, we'll change it to enum instead of ASCII characters. > There's "do the same" as in "using 0 through 5" (is there any need to have a > value for "invalid"?

The RDS standard allows the option of decoding partially corrupted frames, notably decoding Information Word #1 (Program Identification) even if the remaining Information Words are corrupt/invalid. For completeness, I'm posting the updated packet structure below: RDS Packet Structure +---------------------------+ | RDS Information Word 1 | | (2 Octets) | +---------------------------+ | RDS Information Word 2 | | (2 Octets) | +---------------------------+ | RDS Information Word 3 | | (2 Octets) | +---------------------------+ | RDS Information Word 4 | | (2 Octets) | +---------------------------+ | RDS Offset Word 1 | | (1 Octet) | +---------------------------+ | RDS Offset Word 2 | | (1 Octet) | +---------------------------+ | RDS Offset Word 3 | | (1 Octet) | +---------------------------+ | RDS Offset Word 4 | | (1 Octet) | +---------------------------+ Description: Note: the RDS frame is also known as a "group" in the RDS standard. The RDS frame consists of 4 RDS Information Words, each 16 bits, followed by 4 Offset Symbols, each 8 bits, for a total of 12 octets. The Information Words are as specified in the RDS standard. Encoding is Big-Endian, as in the standard. The Offset Word values represent the detected syndromes for the corresponding Information Words, and are used in the interpretation of Information Words, as per RDS standard. The valid Offset Word values are: Offset | "Offset Word" | Offset xor value Values | in RDS Standard | in RDS standard -------|-----------------|---------------- 0 | A | 0011111100 1 | B | 0110011000 2 | C | 0101101000 3 | D | 0110110100 4 | c' (C-TAG) | 1101010000 5 | E (MMBS) | 0000000000 255 | Invalid offset word (from US RBDS Standard 1998, tables P.2, P.3) Sample Frames: d3 93 05 c8 e1 17 57 44 00 01 02 03 d3 93 05 c9 e1 17 52 20 00 01 02 03 d3 93 05 ca e1 17 33 20 00 01 02 03 d3 93 05 cf e1 17 20 20 00 01 02 03 The preceding 4 frames encode the following station: * Program Identification (PI) = 0xd393 * Station Name = "WDR 3 " * Alternate Frequency = 89.8 MHz _______________________________________________ tcpdump-workers mailing list tcpdump-workers@lists.tcpdump.org https://lists.sandelman.ca/mailman/listinfo/tcpdump-workers
