C2INAV — navigation_covariance_type should have a max length

  • Key: C2INAV-1
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: BAE SYSTEMS ( Mr. Simon Mettrick)
  • Summary:

    To allow application to statically size (bound) their data structures variably sized datatypes should have a tag to bound the size.
    Accordingly navigation_covariance_type should have a Length tag.
    The maximum value = 253
    (sum(3n+1; n=7) = 22 * 23 / 2) (as there are seven topics each with three values - plus time that can contribute to the covariance; this is very much a worst-case upper bound)

  • Disposition: Resolved — C2INAV 1.0
  • Disposition Summary:

    Add Length Tag to covariance value attribute

    Add Length tag value = 253 as per issue description

    State that sequences are bounded in the IDL PSM
