In order to solve the problems of the actual flight training, a virtual simulation using a simulated flight device, that is, an aircraft simulator (Simulator) is used for flight training. Currently, most of our military relies on real-world training to combat combat aircraft mastery and preparation for air operations missions, and uses some simulators to train weapon systems, operate and operate emergency procedures. Techniques for virtual simulation using a conventional aircraft simulator are disclosed in detail, for example, in Patent Nos. 10-0808026, 10-0958372, and the like. However, these simulators were introduced before the LVC training concept was established, focusing only on the aircraft operation and procedural training. Therefore, due to technical and operational limitations, these simulators are not suitable for team tactical training such as formation and flight formation. It is not used at all. In other words, due to the development of weapons systems, changes in the concept of combat execution, and the complexity of the battlefield situation, the mission environment of the aviation operations is changing, and the focus of mission training is also changing. In the past, the emphasis was simply on individual pilot skills and armament operations, but in modern warfare, the importance of a variety of platforms and collaborative sensors and weapons capabilities for successful flight missions is increasing. As a result, in modern warfare, it is necessary to conduct mission training that focuses on teamwork rather than individual pilot skills, and overall optimization rather than partial optimization, thus eliminating the limitations of real-time flight training and simple virtual flight simulation and changing operational concepts. Integrated flight training tools are required to meet new training requirements.

The technical problem to be achieved by the present invention is to provide an aircraft simulation interworking system based on LVC (Live Virtual Constructive).

According to an embodiment, the plurality of aircraft simulators may interwork with each other using a high level architecture / run-time infrastructure (HLA / RTI).

The C-system further includes a CGF scheme that simulates threat means and countermeasures for constructing a synthetic battlefield environment through the tactical simulation model.

The data interworking unit includes an object model support module defining data interfaces of the pre-V-system and the C-system, and a protocol support module configured to set transmission / reception rules by mapping data types according to the corresponding protocols.

The object model support module may further include a resolution adjusting module for converting data resolution between the V-system and the C-system according to the defined data interface.

In general, the LVC-System (LVC-System) is composed of one synthetic battlefield by interlocking physically spaced Live Simulation, Virtual Simulation, or Constructive Simulation. It is a simulation system that simulates similar battles.

The system that implements the above-mentioned real-world simulation, virtual simulation, and configuration simulation is called L-system, V-system, and C-system, respectively. Among them, synthetic electric field simulation interlocking training system formed by interconnecting two or more systems is generally used. This is called LVC-training system.

1 and 2, the LVC-based aircraft simulation interworking system 10 includes a V-system 100, a C-system 200, and a data interworking unit 300 for interworking them.

The V-system 100 includes a plurality of aircraft simulators 110-1 through 110-4, and each of the plurality of aircraft simulators 110-1 through 110-4 is simulated in an artificial battle environment. It accurately mimics the capabilities of real fighters so pilots can engage in combat as if they were real.

That is, each of the plurality of aircraft simulators 110-1 to 110-4 can simulate an aerial sensor, a command control, and an attack platform, and a corresponding pilot can control the plurality of aircraft simulators 110-1 to 110-4. This can improve mission proficiency in areas such as maneuvering fighter or maneuvering equipment, fire control resource management, and communication.

According to an embodiment, the plurality of aircraft simulators 110-1 to 110-4 may interwork with each other using a high level architecture / run-time infrastructure (HLA / RTI).

Each of the plurality of aircraft simulators 110-1 through 110-4 includes a three-dimensional image displayer having a common view of the composite battlefield.

The C-system 200 includes a configuration simulator 210 that simulates a battle environment, actual equipment, and troops through software, and in accordance with embodiments, interlocks with various analysis models to perform individual unit simulations. By doing so, a tactical simulation model can be implemented.

The resolution adjusting module 320 may appropriately convert the data from a high level to a low level or from a low level to a high level according to resolutions of models having different data resolutions.

In this case, the data resolution does not mean a resolution for a display, but a data resolution of a model that can be processed internally.

For example, the resolution of the first aircraft simulator 110-1 and the plane formation of the plurality of aircraft simulators 110-1 to 110-4 are different from each other, and the first aircraft simulator 110-1 is relatively different. ) Is higher than the resolution of the aircraft flight.

Accordingly, the object model support module 310 may correct a difference in information that may occur between transmission data by changing the data resolution as well as changing the data interface.

The communication interworking defines a mechanism for delivering a message to each system, and the protocol support module 330 is independent so as to be responsible only for internal processing regardless of the communication method without limitation on various protocols operating differently in different systems. It can be operated in structural form.

According to an embodiment, the protocol support module 330 may include a data distribution service (DDS), a TCP / IP, a user datagram protocol (UDP), a distributed interactive simulation (DIS), a TAD (TActical Digital Information Link) -B, and an army tactical ATDL.
