  • A novel robot-operating-system-based flight and mission state communication node for X-Plane 11 flight control simulation environments and its simulation results were discussed. Although the proposed communication method requires considerable implementation steps compared with the conventional MATLAB/Simulink-based User Datagram Protocol (UDP) block utilization method, the proposed method enables a direct comparison of cockpit-view images captured during flight with the flight data. This comparison is useful for data acquisition under virtual environments and for the development of flight control systems. The fixed/rotary-wing and ground terrain elements simulated in virtual environments exhibited excellent visualization outputs, which can overcome time and space constraints on flight experiments and validation of missionary algorithms with complex logic.

  • A flight simulator is an instrument which lets pilots attain proficiency of handling various emergency situations, and the sense of flying. In this thesis, current status of domestic simulators will be stated, and after showing the problems with the present management of these simulators, comparisons of how and what kind of facilities they are managed around the globe will be made. After comparing and analyzing the difference in the way the simulators are ran, measures of improvement in domestically appropriate simulators and increase of operating facilities will be drawn.

  • 비행 Simulator는 조종사가 실제 비행할 때와 같은 느낌을 받도록 구성되어야 하는데 조종사가 비행을 느끼게 되는 것은 여러 가지 감각기관을 통한 종합적인 느낌이다. 시각을 위하여 계기가 현재 비행 상태를 표시해야되고 외부 경치에서 고도, 속도, 자세 및 상승률을 감지하여야 한다. 이런 외부상태를 표시하기 위해서는 조종사의 Stick조작에 의한 비행기의 위치 변화와 속도 등을 실시간으로 계산하여 Graphic Engine과 Actuator로 데이터를 전송하여야 한다. 이러한 Parameter를 결정하기 위해서는 조정사의 조작에 의한 stick의 위치와 그로 인한 항공기의 자세 그리고 상태와 비행 속도 등에 따라 결정되며, 대상 항공기에 대한 제원으로 부터 조종사가 조종간의 이동크기와 조종면의 각 변위와의 관계를 계산하여 위치, 방향과 높이에 관한 Parameter를 계산해 줄 수 있는 방법 구현하였다.

  • Virtual Fire Control System(VFCS) in attack helicopter is developed. VFCS is comprised of multifunction display, store management computer, mission computer, target acquisition and designation system, mission planning system, weapon simulator and flight simulator. Weapon engagement process under the operational environment of helicopter was considered by using the VFCS. We considered hellfire missile, tow missile, unguided rocket and turret gun. The results of this study will be utilized efficiently on integrated fire control system SIL(System Integration Lab.) in attack helicopter.

  • T-50 supersonic jet trainer aircraft using digital flight-by-wire flight control system receives aircraft flight conditions such as altitude, VCAS(Calibrated Airspeed) and Angle of Attack from IMFP(Integrated Multi-Function Probe). IMFP sensors information have triplex structure using three IMFP sensors. Air-data selection logic is mid-value selection in three information from three IMFP sensors in order to have more reliability. From supersonic flight test at high altitude, air-data information is dropped simultaneously because of supersonic shock wave effect. This error information may affect to aircraft stability and safety in supersonic area at low altitude. This paper propose that sensitivity analysis and HQS(Handling Quality Simulator) pilot simulation in order to analyze flight stability and controllability in supersonic area at low altitude when these information is applied to flight control law.

  • This paper shows the design of operational flight program(OFP) using model-based design(MBD) method which is used in various engineering fields to reduce time and flight risks for development. The verification of OFP for DO-178C guidelines carry out by a model advisor function of simulink. The flight control logic on simulink is converted into C-language by auto code generation tool from, then it is implemented on 32bit digital signal processor(DSP). The verifications of flight control algorithm on various weather conditions are performed by the HILS system with Flight simulator program, X-plane.

  • Flight parameters of a light aircraft in normal category named ChangGong-91 we identified from flight tests. Modified Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MMLE) is used to produce aerodynamic coefficients, stability and control derivatives. A Flight Training Device (FTD) has been developed based on the identified flight parameters. Flat earth, rigid body, and standard atmosphere are assumed in the FTD model. Euler angles are adapted for rotational state variables to reduce computational load. Variations in flight Mach number and Reynolds number are assumed to be negligible. Body, stability and inertial axes allow 6 second-order linear differential equations for translational and rotational motions. The equations of motion are integrated with respect to time, resulting in good agreements with flight tests.
