Abstract
Low-cost motion systems have been proposed for certain training tasks that would otherwise be performed on high-performance full flight simulators. These systems have shorter stroke actuators, lower bandwidth, and higher motion noise. The influence of these characteristics on pilot perception and control behavior is unknown, and needs to be investigated. A possible approach to this would be to simulate a platform with limited capabilities with a high-end platform, and then remove the platform limitations one by one. The effects of these platform limitations on pilot behavior can then be investigated in isolation. In this paper, a model of a low-cost simulator was validated for simulation on a high-performance simulator. A dynamic model of the MPI Stewart platform was analyzed and compared with measurements of the baseline simulator response. Measurements for validation of the implementation of the model on the SIMONA Research Simulator showed that the dynamics of the MPI Stewart platform could be represented well in terms of dynamic range, time delay, and noise characteristics. The implementation of the model of the MPI Stewart platform will be used in experiments on the effects of these characteristics on pilot control behavior.
