36/* A generic radio capture format is desirable. There is one for
37 * Linux, but it is neither rigidly defined (there were not even
38 * units given for some fields) nor easily extensible.
39 *
40 * I suggest the following extensible radio capture format. It is
41 * based on a bitmap indicating which fields are present.
42 *
43 * I am trying to describe precisely what the application programmer
44 * should expect in the following, and for that reason I tell the
45 * units and origin of each measurement (where it applies), or else I
46 * use sufficiently weaselly language ("is a monotonically nondecreasing
47 * function of...") that I cannot set false expectations for lawyerly
48 * readers.
