UTF-16
16-bit Unicode character representation. In this representation, all characters are represented using 2 bytes or 4 bytes. UTF-16 is the system code page of a Unicode system. UTF-16 uses the same 2-byte encoding as UCS-2 for the Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP) of the Unicode standard and a 4-byte encoding for the other Unicode planes in the surrogate area that are addressed by surrogates. The ABAP programming language supports UCS-2 as a subset of UTF-16 without surrogates.
