Implementierung und Bewertung eines ortsverteilten Windmodells für die Störungssimulation unbemannter Luftfahrzeuge

Abstract

In this thesis a wind model for unmanned air vehicles and other objects has been developed. It generates a position depending wind and has been integrated in the simulation environment of the unmanned air vehicles ARTIS and Prometheus. The wind model replaces the previous simple models by an extended, unified model. All unmanned air vehicles use the same wind model. This way it can be used to simulate additional applications. The wind is subdivided into several components which are based on analytic approaches. These components of wind are the mean wind, turbulences, discrete gusts and a wave profile. The wave profile is responsible for the position depending wind and has been specifically developed for this model. It allows new applications for several parallel used unmanned air vehicles, as for example the air-to-air refuelling. Apart from turbulences the generated wind is independent from objects. Therefore, only a single set of global wind parameters is used in the whole wind model. A modular structure enables easy extensions for additional unmanned air vehicles as well as easy changes of the model. The wind model features a user interface to change parameters and settings in the hardware-in-the-loop-simulation during running time. A final evaluation shows that the wind model fulfils the requirements of a wind that is needed for the applications.
