Introduction
Standard Background and Significance
As my country's first industry specification for the application of the BeiDou satellite navigation system in meteorology, this standard fills a gap in standards for meteorological data transmission in emergency communications scenarios. With the widespread adoption of BeiDou meteorological communication terminals, this standard provides a disaster-resistant communication solution for meteorological observation networks.
Analysis of the Core Transmission Mechanism
4.1 Information Classification System
| Information Type | Coding Standard | Transmission Form | Typical Application |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meteorological Emergency Information | GB 2312-1980 | Direct Text Transmission | Typhoon Warning, Earthquake Rapid Report |
| Observation Data in File Form | File Name + Content Combination | Subpacket Transmission | Z File, Sounding Data |
| Data in Non-File Form | Raw Data Stream | Direct Transmission | Real-Time Data from Regional Stations |
5.1 Data Packetization Technology
The 106-byte length limit of BeiDou short messages has spawned an innovative packetization solution:
Example: A Z file (1166 bytes) needs to be split into 12 data packets for transmission. The first packet contains:
- 4-byte protocol header (including the QS start character and terminal status identifier)
- 2-byte data type flag (e.g., 0x1000 indicates ground station data)
- 99-byte payload (file name length + file name + partial data)
- 1-byte XOR checksum
Key Technology Implementation
6.2 Intelligent Retransmission Mechanism
Data integrity is ensured through three levels of assurance:
- The first and last packets are actively retransmitted at a 2-minute interval (up to 2 times)
- A broadcast instruction is triggered when an intermediate packet is lost (format example:
020006030AA1) - Upon receiving the instruction, the sender initiates directional retransmission (up to 3 times)
Implementation Recommendations
Key Points for Equipment Selection
- Select a BeiDou-3 terminal that supports RDSS services
- Verify the compatibility of the maximum length of a single terminal packet with the standard 106 bytes
- Ensure authorization for group users with the broadcast function
Data Optimization Strategy
