STANAG 4575: What It is and How It Works

摘要

A new draft NATO Standardization Agreement (STANAG) was released in 2001 for review by the member nations~1. Its purpose is to "promote interoperability for the exchange of data among North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) Systems". This standard defines both the physical and logical interfaces needed to download data from new data storage devices into compliant ground stations. This paper will describe the development of this STANAG, detail its physical and logical implementation requirements, and describe how the requirements work together to permit the exchange of data.
