ACM emits and recognizes the following DIS PDU Types:
Entity State
Fire
Detonation
Electromagnetic Emission
ACM uses the DIS/x DIS interface library. DIS/x supports dead reckoning of external entities using any of these methods:
| Name | Enumeration Value |
|---|---|
| Static | 1 |
| FPW | 2 |
| RPW | 3 |
| RVW | 4 |
| FVW | 5 |
These dead reckoning methods are currently unsupported by DIS/x:
| Name | Enumeration Value |
|---|---|
| FPB | 6 |
| RPB | 7 |
| RVB | 8 |
| FVB | 9 |
| RVW | 10 |
Entities managed by ACM emit entity state PDU’s specifying the RPW(3) dead reckoning method. No articulation parameters are currently sent by entities managed by ACM. As with most current DIS-based simulations, altitudes are expressed as heights above the WGS-84 ellipsoid, not as heights above the geoid. Dead reckoning threshold values are hard-coded in this version of the product:
| Description | Value |
|---|---|
| Maximum time between Entity State PDUs | 5 seconds |
| Dead Reckoning Cartesian distance error | 3 meters |
| Dead Reckoning angular orientation error | *not currently tested* |
When operating in IEEE 1278 mode, the default UDP port number for PDU transmission is 3000.
