My sincere apologies, the link returns a 404 (trailing dot). The correct link to the BIP is https://github.com/ZenulAbidin/bips/blob/master/bip-notatether-signedmessage.mediawiki

It does not define a new signature format itself, except in the case of Taproot. For those addresses, I have defined a signature format that has 1 byte header/recID, 64 bytes signature, and 32 bytes x coordinate of a public key. This is required to run the BIP340 Schnorr verify algorithm using only the signature - and the header byte is added for backwards compatibility. Otherwise, it completely integrates BIP137 signatures.
