ISO 18445:2013

Space data and information transfer systems — Space Link Extension — Application Program Interface for the Forward CLTU Service

ISO 18445:2013 specifies extensions to the API needed for support of the Command Link Transmission Unit (CLTU) service defined in CCSDS 912.1-B-2.

ISO 18445:2013 defines extensions to the SLE API in terms of:

• the CLTU-specific functionality provided by API components;
• the CLTU-specific interfaces provided by API components; and
• the externally visible behavior associated with the CLTU 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 18445:2013 defines only interfaces and behavior that must be provided by implementations supporting the forward CLTU service in addition to the specification in CCSDS 914.0-M-1.
