Introduction
For Route Segment, PANS-AIM requires as part of th eminimum the minimum data set information about the navigation specification and required navigation performance.
...
...
For the AIP data set PANS-AIM requires 2 properties related to Performance Based Navigation (PBN) of a route segment.
...
Indication on the sensor requirements including any navigation specification limitations
...
...
ICAO Doc 9613 (PBN Manual)
describes the following designation of Navigation Specifications:
...
The following table shows the Application of navigation specification by flight phase:
The diagram below shows the AIXM 5.1(.1) classes, including the relevant data types, that may be used to encode that information:

AIXM 5.1.1 provides two attributes regarding navigation specifications for a RouteSegment. Both seem to be insufficient to code the designation of the PBN specification.
Another option would be to code a FlightRestriction for a RoutePortion. A related FlightConditionElement may be encoded with a corresponding AircraftCharacteristic.navigationSpecification. The code list for this attribute CodeNaviagationSpecificationType contains all required values. However, it is not clear if the actual intention of the FlightRestriction model of AIXM is to encode that kind of information. The AIXM definition for FlightRestriction is: A rule meant to regulate the use of the route network, by identifying a set of flights which fulfil a combination of elementary flow conditions and either forbidding them on a particular routing or obliging them to follow one routing out of a set of mandatory alternatives.
This has been raised as an issue to the AIXM CCB to be considered for AIXM 5.2. For the status of the Change Proposal see AIXM-135 Proposed Workaround for AIXM5.1(.1): Code for navigationType 'RNAV' or 'OTHER:RNP' and for requiredNavigationPerformance the navigation acurracy, e.g. '5' or '4'. The two concatenated values would result in the corresponding RNAV or RNP navigation specification, e.g. RNAV 10 or RNP 4, according to the values defined in ICAO Doc 9613 (PBN Manual). Note: This workaround does not work for one PBN navigation specifications applied for en-route: The Advanced RNP (A-RNP). For this particular case an corresponding Note may be provided. |
