Developement Of An Instrument Landing Simulation ... - Cal Poly

AcknowledgementsI would like to thank Doug Hiranaka and Fritz Anderson for their initialdevelopment of this project. Fritz Anderson created the hardware integration of thesimulator cab with the software code. Doug Hiranaka developed the interface of the nonlinear,six-degree-of-freedom simulation using Matlab’s Simulink. I would like to alsothank the following people for their help on the simulator during the past few years.Aaron Munger’s knowledge on the simulator’s hardware aided in the development of theanalog section of this thesis. Jon Tonkyro provided expertise in networking and helpedwith the graphics. Edwin Casco and Paul Patangui assisted in the development of anInstrument Landing System (ILS) Simulation. Members from the Spring AERO 320helped with the engine model simulation. Jeff Nadel helped with the lab networking forthe ATL building. Dan Powell helped with moving the simulator and electricalassistance. Dr. Daniel J. Biezad’s continued efforts to make flight simulation and controlsa strong emphasis at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. David Lowe and the F-18 and UH-1Nsimulation groups at Manned Flight Simulator gave me experience and insight on howflight simulators should be developed. Finally, I would like to thank Linda Jarrard for hersupport during the time I invested on this project.iv
