Abstract

The aim of the Objective Motion Cueing Test (OMCT) is to demonstrate the frequency response of the complete motion cueing system of a Flight Simulation Training Device (FSTD). The term “complete motion cueing system” implies all, the motion cueing algorithm, the motion platform actuator extension transformation and control laws, and the motion platform hardware. The standard definition for OMCT has been published by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) as a part of document No. 9625. Since then the test has been performed by several simulator operators and results have been published. However, the overall test procedure is still under development and some individual tests leave room for interpretation how to be conducted. The German Aerospace Center (DLR) has recently developed a research simulator facility in Braunschweig named AVES (Air VEhicle Simulator). AVES is enabling research on rotary- and fixed-wing aircraft with a high level of fidelity. In this paper the experiences of DLR with respect to OMCT applied to the electro-pneumatic motion system of AVES are presented.
