Problem
AeroTech needed to assess the performance requirements, capabilities, and use of its Turbulence Auto-PIREP System (TAPS) in a multi-aircraft operationally representative environment.
Approach
AeroTech combined aircraft simulations, weather models, system algorithms, and logic into a real-time multi-element simulation for system refinement and assessment.
Results
A versatile development tool (TAPOS) was developed that can be used for system development, flight crew assessments, system requirements, and cost estimation. Training applications are being investigated.
AeroTech Contributions
Aircraft and system simulations, weather model implementation, simulation requirements definition, software checkout, and program management.
