Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of semi-physical simulation test of guided weapons, and particularly relates to a tabletop semi-physical simulation system and simulation method for infrared guided weapons, and especially relates to a semi-physical simulation test for guided weapons with infrared seekers under the condition of no five-axis turntable or limited field of view of infrared target simulator. BACKGROUND
[0002] Currently, the semi-physical simulation test for guided weapons with infrared seekers mainly adopts a simulation scheme based on a five-axis turntable, that is, the relative motion process of the guided weapon and the target is simulated by using the five-axis turntable, and the target and background signals required by the infrared seeker under test are simulated by using an infrared target simulator. The semi-physical simulation system and simulation method have the following problems:
[0003] (1) The five-axis turntable is extremely expensive, generally about 5 million yuan, and some units cannot build it due to funding problems, so the semi-physical simulation test for infrared guided weapons cannot be carried out.
[0004] (2) The field of view of some infrared seekers is large, and when the simulation test is carried out by using the five-axis turntable, the distance from the three-axis rotation center (the position of the seeker exit pupil) inside the five-axis turntable to the two-axis rotation center (the position of the exit pupil of the target simulator) outside the five-axis turntable is long (generally 800mm-1200mm) due to the limitation of the structure of the five-axis turntable. In this case, the field of view provided by some infrared target simulators cannot match and meet the field of view requirement of the infrared seeker simulation.
[0005] In summary, the semi-physical simulation test for infrared guided weapons cannot be carried out under the condition of no five-axis turntable or limited field of view of the infrared target simulator. SUMMARY

[0098] Embodiment 1
[0099] To solve the problems in the prior art, the technical scheme of the present application is as follows:
[0100] (1) Semi-physical simulation scheme design and simulation system construction
[0101] For the guided weapon using an infrared seeker, the traditional simulation scheme is to construct a semi-physical simulation system based on a "five-axis turntable", simulate the relative motion process of the guided weapon and the target by using the five-axis turntable, install the test seeker on the inner three axes of the five-axis turntable to simulate the attitude change of the guided weapon in the flight process, install the infrared target simulator on the outer two axes of the five-axis turntable to simulate the change trend of the line-of-sight angle between the missile and the target, and the infrared target and background signals required by the seeker are generated in real time by the infrared target simulator, and the working principle of the entire simulation system is as follows: Figure 1As shown. It can be seen that the traditional infrared guided weapon semi-physical simulation must use a five-axis turntable, and its disadvantage is that the semi-physical simulation test cannot be carried out in the case that there is no five-axis turntable or the field of view of the infrared target simulator is not enough due to the pupil distance of the five-axis turntable.
[0102] Unlike the traditional method, the present application proposes an infrared guided weapon desktop semi-physical simulation system and a simulation method, the semi-physical simulation system is composed of a simulation clamp, an infrared target simulator, a simulation computer and a test general control system, and the functions of each component unit are as follows:
[0103] 1) Simulation clamp: the simulation clamp is used to clamp the tested infrared seeker and the infrared target simulator to the desktop, and to make the optical center axes coincide.
[0104] 2) Infrared target simulator: the infrared target simulator is used to simulate the radiation characteristics of the target and the background in the infrared band, to generate a dynamic infrared scene in real time, to provide the target and the background signals in the infrared band for the measured seeker, and to provide the seeker for detection and tracking.
[0105] 3) Simulation computer: the simulation computer can run the guided weapon dynamics, kinematics model, guided control model and target kinematics model, output the six-degree-of-freedom flight trajectory of the guided weapon, generate the motion parameters of the guided weapon, the target and the relative motion of the missile and the target, and control the operation of other simulation devices.
[0106] 4) Test general control system: the test general control system is the control center of the whole simulation system, and is used to complete the tasks and initialization settings in the test process, to simulate the functions of the tested components, to program and power on the tested components, to convert the interface information, to transmit and interact the signals, to collect and record the data, and to display the real-time situation, etc.
[0107] The scheme design of the semi-physical simulation system is as follows: the simulation clamp is used to clamp the tested infrared seeker and the infrared target simulator to the desktop, the pupil distance between the tested seeker and the infrared target simulator is adjusted according to the simulation field of view requirement of the tested seeker, so that the field of view of the infrared target simulator meets the simulation requirement; the infrared target simulator is used to provide the target and the background signals in the infrared band for the tested infrared seeker, for the seeker to detect and track; in the infrared scene generation, the image generation computer maps the missile-target line of sight elevation angle and the missile-target line of sight yaw angle signals calculated by the simulation computer to the image to be generated through coordinate conversion, so as to simulate the infrared image observed by the tested seeker at the current time; the frame angle signal static drift of the seeker output by the simulation interface of the test general control system is superimposed with the theoretical frame angle signal of the seeker calculated by the simulation computer, and then is injected into the missile-borne computer to realize the simulation of the frame angle signal of the seeker; the simulation computer is used for real-time trajectory calculation; and the test general control system is used to control the test process.
[0108] From the above scheme can be seen, the present application does not need to use five-axis turntable, and avoids the disadvantages that the distance from the three-axis rotation center (guide head exit pupil position) in the five-axis turntable to the two-axis rotation center outside the five-axis turntable is limited by the structure of the turntable, and can be adjusted according to the size requirement of the simulation field of view, that is, if the field of view provided by the infrared target simulator is not enough, the exit pupil distance between the test guide head and the infrared target simulator can be appropriately reduced, and then the available field of view can be effectively expanded, so that the disadvantage that the semi-physical simulation test cannot be carried out due to the insufficient field of view of the infrared target simulator caused by the exit pupil distance of the five-axis turntable is avoided.
[0109] (2) Working principle and process of simulation system
[0110] The working principle of the infrared guidance weapon desktop semi-physical simulation system is shown in Figure 2 .
[0111] As shown in the figure, the test infrared homing head and the infrared target simulator are clamped to the desktop using the simulation fixture, and the optical center axes are coincident. The test components such as the homing head, inertial navigation, missile computer, and rudder are connected to the simulation loop according to the communication protocol and interface definition.
[0112] Before the test starts, the test general control system configures parameters according to the simulation task sheet and test conditions, and arranges the test process. The test general control system performs self-checking on each test equipment and test component to ensure that the state is normal. The test general control system sets the battlefield and initial simulation conditions, disturbance conditions, target / background and interference signal characteristic parameters; sets the simulation period, simulation time sequence and other test control parameters, and binds the target parameters and control parameters of the test components. After the firing command is issued, the launch parameters and navigation initial parameters are bound according to the working time sequence of the guidance weapon, and each test component starts working according to the time sequence. The test general control system issues a zero-second synchronization signal to start the operation of all test equipment and simulation programs.
[0113] After the beginning of the test, the simulation computer solves the dynamic and kinematic model of the guided weapon in real time, generates the attitude, position, velocity, acceleration of the guided weapon and the target motion signal, and outputs to the communication network. The simulation interface of the test general control system receives the calculation signal on the communication network to inject into the inertial navigation, and the inertial navigation starts to perform navigation calculation to calculate the current attitude and position of the guided weapon and transmit them to the missile-borne computer. The image generation computer generates the target background image in real time according to the target characteristics (optical image characteristics, geometric change characteristics, etc.), transmits it to the infrared target simulator, realizes the simulation of the infrared target and background infrared image, and radiates to the seeker for detection and tracking. The missile-borne computer synthesizes the measurement information of the inertial navigation and other sensors, forms the rudder control command according to the guidance control model, controls the rudder deflection, and controls the guided weapon to fly along the planned trajectory; when the seeker enters the target capture area, the missile-borne computer forms the control command according to the guidance control model, and sends it to the rudder to form the rudder deflection angle; the simulation computer calculates the control force and torque according to the rudder deflection angle, controls the guided weapon to fly until it hits the target.
[0114] During the entire test process, the simulation interface subsystem of the test general control system receives the input and output information of each test component and test equipment in real time, and performs real-time conversion and interaction of signals; the component function simulation subsystem of the test general control system provides a simulated weapon station and a simulated working environment on the missile for the test components, and forms a guided weapon launch process and a closed-loop simulation condition. Various data generated during the test are collected, recorded and stored by the data acquisition subsystem of the test general control system for calling and analysis after the test.
[0115] (3) Simulation calculation method of seeker frame angle signal
[0116] The above-mentioned semi-physical simulation system and simulation method do not use a five-axis turntable, and its role in semi-physical simulation needs to be replaced by other methods. Since the five-axis turntable can simulate the relative motion process (i.e. the spatial geometric position relationship) of the guided weapon and the target during flight, the image observed by the infrared seeker is actually the target and background image under this spatial geometric position relationship, so it is only necessary to make the target and background image generated by the image generation computer reflect the missile-target line of sight pitch angle and missile-target line of sight yaw angle under the missile-target line of sight coordinate system to simulate the relative motion process between the guided weapon and the target.
[0117] In addition, since the line-of-sight angular velocity signal and the frame angle signal generated by the seeker are used as input signals of the missile-borne computer to participate in the whole process of the guidance control of the guided weapon, another difficulty of the method of the present application is that the conventional simulation method can drive the test seeker to generate real frame angle signals, because the five-axis turntable can simulate the attitude change of the guided weapon in the flight process, and the frame angle signals generated by the seeker under the attitude change are consistent with the frame angle signals generated in the actual flight process. However, in the method of the present application, the test seeker is fixed on the simulation fixture and cannot move, so that the attitude change cannot be simulated, and the frame angle signals output by the seeker are not real and need to be processed. The method adopted is that in the simulation, the simulation computer calculates the theoretical frame angle signals of the seeker in the flight process of the guided weapon while calculating the trajectory signals, and the static drift of the frame angle signals output by the seeker and the theoretical frame angle signals of the seeker calculated by the simulation computer are superimposed and synthesized by the simulation interface of the test general control system and then input to the missile-borne computer, so that the real frame angle signals of the seeker can be simulated. The calculation can be performed according to the following steps:
[0118] 1) Two static drift signals of the frame angle signals output by the test seeker are obtained by the simulation interface of the test general control system through interface information conversion;
[0119] 2) Two theoretical frame angle signals calculated by the simulation computer are collected from the communication network by the simulation interface of the test general control system;
[0120] 3) The above signals are superimposed and synthesized by the simulation interface of the test general control system, so as to obtain two real frame angle signals required by the missile-borne computer, and the calculation formula is as follows:
[0121]
[0122]
[0123] 4) The calculated and and are input to the missile-borne computer by the simulation interface of the test general control system, so that the real frame angle signals of the seeker can be simulated.
[0124] In the above calculation, the physical meanings of the parameters are as follows:
[0125] The static drift of the pitch frame angle output by the seeker;
[0126] The static drift of the yaw frame angle output by the seeker;
[0127] The theoretical pitch frame angle signal of the seeker is calculated by a simulated computer.
[0128] The theoretical yaw frame angle signal of the seeker is calculated by a simulated computer.
[0129] The actual pitch frame angle signal of the seeker head required by the missile-borne computer;
[0130] ψ: The actual yaw frame angle signal of the seeker required by the missile-borne computer.
[0131] Example 2
[0132] In a hardware-in-the-loop simulation test of a certain type of conventional surface-to-surface tactical missile, the guidance and control components involved in the simulation included an infrared seeker, inertial navigation system, onboard computer, and servo motors. The simulation equipment used included simulation fixtures, an infrared target simulator, a simulation computer, and a test control system. The test implementation steps are as follows:
[0133] (1) Use a simulation fixture to mount the infrared seeker and infrared target simulator on the table and make their optical center axes coincide. Adjust the distance between the infrared seeker and the infrared target simulator so that the simulation field of view meets the requirements of the seeker.
[0134] (2) According to Figure 2 The connection relationships connect the various test components and simulation equipment;
[0135] (3) At this point, the simulation system has been built. The image generation computer drives the infrared target simulator to generate the target background image while waiting for the firing signal.
[0136] (4) Upon receiving the firing signal, the simulation computer performs ballistic calculations in real time and simultaneously sends the position, attitude, accelerometer, and seeker theoretical frame angle signals of the guided weapon and the target. The simulation interface of the test control system will output the static drift of the frame angle from the seeker. The seeker's theoretical frame angle signal calculated by the simulation computer After being superimposed and synthesized, the signal is injected into the onboard computer. The simulation interface of the test control system receives the accelerator signal from the communication network and injects it into the inertial navigation system. The inertial navigation system begins to perform navigation calculations, calculates the current position, attitude and other information of the guided weapon and transmits it to the onboard computer. The onboard computer integrates the output signals of the seeker and inertial navigation system to form control commands and sends them to the servo motors for execution. The simulation computer collects the servo feedback signals to form control forces and torques, controls the flight of the guided weapon, and forms a simulation closed loop.
[0137] The above merely describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and it should be pointed out that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present application, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered as the protection scope of the present application.
