Octet | Contents
--- | ---
10 | Parameter category (see Code Table 4.1)
11 | Parameter number (see Code Table 4.2)
12 | Type of generating process (see Code Table 4.3)
13 | Observation generating process identifier (defined by originating centres)
14 | Number of contributing spectral bands (NB)

Repeat the following 10 octets for each contributing band (nb = 1,NB)
(15+10(nb-1)) - (16+10(nb-1)) Satellite series of band nb (code table defined by originating/generating centre)
(17+10(nb-1)) - (18+10(nb-1)) Satellite series of band nb (code table defined by originating/generating centre)
(19+10(nb-1)) Instrument types of band nb (code table defined by originating/generating centre)
(20 +10(nb-1)) Scale factor of central wave number of band nb
(21+10(nb-1)) - (24+10(nb-1)) Scaled value of central wave number of band nb (units: m-1)

Note : For "satellite series of band nb", "satellite numbers of band nb" and "instrument types of band nb", it is recommended to encode the values as per BUFR Code ables 0 02 020, 0 01 007 (Common Code Table C-5) and 0 02 019 (Common Code Table C-8), respectively.
