The Infrared and Semi-Active Laser Simulation Capabilities at the AMSTAR Tri-Mode System Simulation HWIL Facility

摘要

The Aviation and Missile Research, Engineering and Development Center (AMRDEC), System Simulation and Development Directorate (SS&DD) and Redstone Technical Test Center (RTTC) have teamed together to develop a Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) simulation known as the Advanced Multi-spectral Simulation Test Acceptance Resource (AMSTAR). The simulation facility has the capability to simultaneously produce scenes in three spectral bands. This paper describes Near Infrared (NIR) and Imaging Infrared capabilities of the AMSTAR simulation. Additionally, this paper will described briefly the ability to conduct tests in an environmentally conditioned chamber while the unit-under-test is mounted on the Flight Motion Simulator (FMS).
