35/* A generic radio capture format is desirable. It must be
36 * rigidly defined (e.g., units for fields should be given),
37 * and easily extensible.
38 *
39 * The following is an extensible radio capture format. It is
40 * based on a bitmap indicating which fields are present.
41 *
42 * I am trying to describe precisely what the application programmer
43 * should expect in the following, and for that reason I tell the
44 * units and origin of each measurement (where it applies), or else I
45 * use sufficiently weaselly language ("is a monotonically nondecreasing
46 * function of...") that I cannot set false expectations for lawyerly
47 * readers.
