Abstract

In this work a simulation platform for uninhabited marine and aerial vehicles is proposed. This platform is based in the MDA (Model Driven Architecture) approach and the DEVS (Discrete Event System Specification) formalism. Platform independent models (PIM) are used to describe the vehicles and its interaction; then, theses models are traduced to platform-specific models (PSMs) in Matlab-Simulink, Java and other languages. DEVS formalism is designed to describe discrete events model, so in order to use continuous time models the second order quantified states simulation (QSS2) is proposed. This method is applied to an autonomous radio controlled hovercraft and its low level tracking controller.
