[Sls-slp] Fwd: CCSDS Pink Sheets for Proximity-1 (for CRC-32 issues)

[Greg Kazz]

Dear SLS-SLP WG,

Any comments on Gian-Paolo's remarks below about the 32-bit CRC in 
Proximity-1?  (Regarding the general update to the CRCs in CCSDS documents)

thanks,

Greg

>(211.2-B-1) where we shall note the following:
>- Tom may need some work to make more readable the drawing with 32 boxes
>- there are some differences between CRC-32 and CRC-16 as e.g.
>         a) initialization is different
>         b) CRC-32 is not part of the frame (while CRC-16 is) despite it 
> is mandatory

>We have decided of not remarking those differences in the blue book

>If 211.2-B-1 points out the difference w.r.t. to the CRC-16 cases (in 
>132.0, 232.0 and 732.0), the reverse should also be done (so 132.0, 232.0 
>and 732.0 would point out the difference w.r.t. the CRC-32 case). That is 
>an argument for putting the remarks in the Green Book.

>resolution for Agency review in July, but you know that for some books we 
>may need additional pink sheets for other items not related to the CRC.
