Design of A Simulation S/W for Evaluation of Auto-Landing Algorithms

  • Published : 2003.06.01

Abstract

A Simulation S/W is developed to evaluate performances of MLS (Microwave Landing System) and IBLS(Integrated Beacon Landing System) in precision auto-landing. For this study classical PID and optimal LQG controllers are developed as well as mathematical models of MLS and IBLS. Ship-landing condition is also considered by assuming sinusoidal movement of the ship in the pitch direction. The simulated aircraft is F-16 in the study of precision auto-landing. For the integrated simulation environment GUI windows are designed for input of parameter values necessary for simulation, such as vehicle performance and environmental data. For validation and verification of models various comparison graphs of simulation outputs are comprised in the GUI design as well as 3D visual simulation of vehicle dynamics.
