In this paper, design, development and evaluation of DIP(Database Interface Program) are presented. The main purpose of this study is to improve the simulation quality to get more realistic response of target system. The designed and developed major function is composed of flexible memory structure, efficient arithmetic database language and high speed interpolation/extrapolation algorithm. To evaluate the operation speed and accuracy of returned data, trim simulation is performed based on in-house software and, DIP is applied to existing real-time simulator such as engineering HQS(Handling Quality Simulator) to evaluate reliability and performance. The result of evlaution reveals that calculation speed and data accuracy are satisfied, and flight performance is satisfied in the real-time simulator environments.

This paper introduces a simulator to assess the impacts of the wind and the airframe vibration on the performance of the Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radar mounted in an aircraft. The AESA radar is mounted on the nose cone of an aircraft, and vibration occurs due to the drag force. This vibration affects the behavior of the AESA radar and can cause phase errors in signal. The simulator adopts the geometric model for nose cone, the mathematical models on the rigid-body dynamics of the aircraft, the average/turbulent winds, and the mode/ambient vibrations to compute the position and the attitude of the radar accurately. Numerical studies reflecting a set of test scenarios were conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed simulator.

Recently, interest in flight simulators based on HMD and mixed reality is increasing. However, they have limitations in providing various interactions and a sense of presence to pilot wearing HMD. To overcome these limitations, a mixed reality image corresponding to the interaction under the actual cockpit environment must be generated in real time and provided to the pilot. For this purpose, we proposed a mixed reality image generation method, in which the cockpit area including the pilot's body could be extracted from real image obtained from the camera attached to the HMD and then composed with virtual image to generate a high-resolution mixed reality image. Simulation results showed that the proposed method could provide mixed reality images to HMD at 30 Hz frame rate with 99% image composition accuracy.

A-SMGCS는 외부로부터 비행계획정보, 레이더 정보 및 기상정보를 수신하여 경로, 안내, 감시 및 항공등화 제어 기능을 수행하는데, 이러한 기능을 검정하기 위한 시뮬레이터는 기초자료 준비, 기상 시나리오 생성, 이벤트 시나리오 생성 및 항적자료 생성 등의 4가지 기능으로 구성되어 가상의 정보를 자동으로 생성하게 된다. 생성된 정보는 A-SMGCS에서 수신하여 그 정보를 바탕으로 각각의 기능들을 실행하게 되고, 그 실행 상태는 A-SMGCS HMI에 모니터링 된다. 그러므로 시뮬레이터에서 생성되는 가상의 시나리오들은 실제 공항에서 발생하거나 예측되는 모든 경우의 상황을 A-SMGCS에 제공하여 정확한 검정을 할 수 있도록 지원함으로써 A-SMGCS의 성능을 한층 더 향상시킬 수 있을 것이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 효과가 기대되는 시뮬레이터의 기능과 연동관계를 정리하여 최적의 시뮬레이터를 제작할 수 있는 방법에 대한 연구를 실시하였다.

This research illustrates how the simulation environment for operating the simultaneous man/unmanned aerial vehicle teaming is constructed. X-Plane program, HILS for the ducted fan aircraft (unmanned) and CTLS (manned aircraft) with communication devices are interfaced to simulate the basic co-operational flight. The X-plane and HILS can allow operators to experience the maned and unmanned aircraft operation in the airspace on the ground in turn they can perform various simulated missions in advance before the actual flight. For the test purpose, the data link between man/unmanned aircraft and ground control station is examined using C Band and UHF radio channels by the manned aircraft.

For many years the development and verification of on-board flight software have been essentially performed on STB (Software Test Bed) environments which consist of real hardware in KARI. During development of on-board flight software on STB, we experienced many difficulties such as the late delivery of target hardware and limitation to access STB simultaneously by multiple developers. And it takes too much time and cost to build up multiple STBs. In order to successfully resolve this kind of problems, the software-based spacecraft simulator has been developed. The simulator emulates the on-board computer, I/O modules and power controller units and it supports the debugging and test facilities to software engineers for developing flight software. Also the flight software can be loaded without any modification and can be executed as pseudo real-time. This paper presents the architecture and design of software-based spacecraft simulator, and flight software development and verification under this environment.

This paper represents the development of a CLS(Control Loading System) for a target a airplane (KT-1) with mechanical linkage reversible flight control system. The system is composed of mechanical frame, controller, sensing part to measure the force from the stick, driving system generating the reaction forces. The DS1103 DSP(Digital Signal Processor) of the dSpace Corp. was used as the controller. The control algorithm of the CLS and the operational environment including monitoring software and evaluation tools are described. The evaluation of the system was conducted according to the requirement specification. The results of the test were analyzed by comparing with the actual data of the target airplane.

Engine control/performance model for helicopter simulator is one of the most important models which affect flight performance and handling quality. It is typical to develop the model based on the raw data and models from the engine designers/manufacturers. The approaches in this study were to develop the basic model based on the available resources and to tune and verify it based on the ground/flight test results. The maintenance manuals of TB3-117 which is installed in KA-32T were reviewed and the components to be simulated for the engine control model were categorized and modeled. Piece-wise linear modeling method was used for the engine performance model. The engine performance data in the engine maintenance manuals were incorporated into the engine steady state performance tables, which were incorporated with the transfer functions for the dynamic performance. Engine control/performance model was compared and tuned with the ground/flight test results. It was verified that the fidelity of the model was within the tolerances in FAA AC120-63.
