Evaluation of DAIS Technology Applied to the Integrated Navigation System of a Tactical Transport.

摘要

This effort has provided an independent contractor assessment of the DAIS executive software, industry exposure to the J-73 level one compiler and DAIS software development tools and a definition of the interface between DAIS and integrated navigation systems. A combination of INS, GPS and air data was used to demonstrate the usefulness of the DAIS/integrated navigation system for tactical air drop and terminal area operations w/transport aircraft. A Boeing Aerospace Lab Simulation jointly managed by AFAL and Boeing, was conducted for the purposes of evaluating the DAIS/integrated navigation system software performance capabilities in a simulated tactical air drop and terminal area navigation flight profile. A 'Hot Bench' simulation was conducted using contractor developed sensor software modules and navigation filter, and the DAIS executive software and processing hardware. Outputs of the program include: Verification of the overall DAIS concept, measurements of executive software overhead and suggestions for improving the DAIS executive software. (Author)
