1 SCOPE
1.1 Identification
This Interface Requirements Specification (IRS) defines the contents and format of a standard set of Output Data (OD) messages that are distributed by the Navigation Sensor System Interface (NAVSSI). These OD messages contain navigation data and they are sent over a variety of physical interfaces, both point-to-point and networked, to a variety of users. This IRS supports all releases of NAVSSI Block 4.2.3.
1.2 System Overview
NAVSSI is a system designed to integrate the inputs from various navigation sensors and provide the integrated navigation solution, precise time, and frequency data to shipboard weapon, combat support, command and control, communication, training, and navigation systems.
The NAVSSI Block 4.2.3 is a followed-on to Block 4.2.1 and incorporates the End Of Life (EOL) replacements. It adds support for an embedded Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module (SAASM) GPS receiver and resolves hardware component obsolescence issues, among these are PowerPC Processor card, Input/Output (I/O) serial card and network interface cards. In addition, DCS rack is eliminated and the user interface functionality becomes a part of the NCS, which is embedded in the RTS rack. The RTS integrates data from both an embedded GPS SAASM receiver and external navigation sensors and provides in real-time, precise Positioning Navigation and Timing (PNT) data to shipboard users. The RTS is a mission critical capability that can operate without the NCS. The NCS provides the capability to control and display the ship’s navigation sensor information and log data to non-volatile storage. The remote NCS extends the NAVSSI control and display capabilities to the ship’s crew in other shipboard locations. The NAVSSI Subsystems (RTS, NCS, and remote NCS) communicate via a dedicated inter-subsystem
LAN.
1.3 Document Overview
The information contained in this document is unclassified. This IRS is prepared in accordance with MIL-STD-498 using the Data Item Description guidelines set in DI-IPSC-81434.

3 REQUIREMENTS
3.1 Interface Identification
This IRS describes the content and format of the OD messages, but it does not address the physical interface to be used to enact the specific NAVSSI interface, which delivers the NAVSSI OD Messages. Such detail will be found in the appropriate Interface Design Description (IDD).
Messages generated in accordance with this IRS are of two major revisions. Version 7 messages and data elements are new, and follow the version 7 enumerations and headers as specified in the SMF&P version 7 document (NAVSSI-B423-SMF&P) listed in section 2. Version 6 messages and data elements are provided for backwards compatibility, and follow the previous versions of the SMF&P exclusively. NAVSSI-B423-SMF&P does provide in addition to version 7 enumerations and header descriptions, all version 6 enumerations and header descriptions.
Elements that have more than one revision are identified with V6 and V7 as part of the element name. A third variant (CMD) follows another enumeration document (NAVSSI-B4.3-CMD-NAVDDX) and applies only to elements of OD22.
All messages will be sent in Big Endian format. Big Endian is an order in which the "big end" (most significant value in the sequence) is stored and transmitted first (at the lowest storage address).
3.2 Data Referencing
NAVSSI outputs of Position and Velocity will normally be referenced to a single point on each ship designated as the OSRP. The Platform Manager for the specific Ship Class will designate this point and its location will vary by ship class. In order to provide position and velocity relative to OSRP, NAVSSI performs the requisite translations on all navigation sensor input data.
NAVSSI treats the ship as a rigid body and that Attitude, Attitude Rate, and Attitude Acceleration are the same at all points on the ship. As such, these quantities are already accurate at OSRP and no translations are required.
Page 4 Distribution D
3.3 Message Format
The Output Data (OD) messages consist of three distinct parts:
Message Header Payload Section Checksum
The message header contains information that helps in parsing the message and the payload. It also provides some indications that pertain to the entire message and also source of the message.
The payload section contains all the message data. Data is provided as data elements and data headers.
Checksum provides a mechanism to validate the message integrity.
The message format is depicted in Figure 3-1.
Figure 3-1 Typical Message Format
The message header, data header and checksum are all defined in the SMF&P document referenced in section 2.
An example of how to construct a message is provided in section 3.8.
