Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of flight training, and in particular to a flight illusion quantification method oriented to simulator training. Background Art
[0002] When training on an illusion simulator, pilots are prone to misjudge flight position, attitude and motion conditions.
[0003] At present, there is a lack of quantitative research on flight illusion at home and abroad; the traditional kinematic modeling method first establishes the coordinate system of each link, determines the DH parameters and posture matrix, and can accurately obtain the spatial position and posture of the robot end.
[0004] However, the above traditional methods are not applicable to the whole composed of a multi-DOF flight illusion simulator and a 2-DOF spatial omnidirectional angle measurement device. If the whole model is built according to the traditional kinematic modeling method, it is cumbersome and difficult to establish a coordinate system and determine the DH parameters, because it is necessary to determine a series of distances and the spatial position and posture of the measuring device in the centrifuge cabin. In addition, the calculation amount of the pose matrix is also relatively large.
[0005] In order to study the relationship between the ground direction perceived by the pilot and the actual ground direction in different illusion simulator training actions, and thus to conduct a quantitative study on the flight illusion, the present invention is based on the invention patent with publication number CN117782000A, a spatial omnidirectional angle measurement device for manned centrifuge training, and proposes a flight illusion quantification method to solve the above problem. Summary of the invention
[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to design a flight illusion quantification method for simulator training in order to solve the above problems.
[0007] The present invention achieves the above-mentioned purpose through the following technical solutions:
[0008] A flight illusion quantification method for simulator training, comprising:
[0009] Step 1: Kinematic modeling of the four-axis centrifugal illusion simulator and calculate its overall transformation matrix The four-axis centrifugal illusion simulator includes a four-axis centrifugal illusion simulator main axis, a four-axis centrifugal illusion simulator yaw axis, a four-axis centrifugal illusion simulator roll axis, and a four-axis centrifugal illusion simulator pitch axis. The measuring device includes a first joint of the measuring device and a second joint of the measuring device. When kinematic modeling of the centrifugal illusion simulator and the measuring device is performed, the MDH parameter modeling idea is referred to, but only α is taken. i-1 and θ i Two angle parameters are used instead of two length parameters. MDH parameters of centrifugal illusion simulator: Main axis of four-axis centrifugal illusion simulator: αi-1 is 0°, θ i is θ1; yaw axis of the four-axis centrifugal illusion simulator: α i-1 is 0°, θ i is θ2; the rolling axis of the four-axis centrifugal illusion simulator is α i-1 is 90°, θ i is θ3; the pitch axis of the four-axis centrifugal illusion simulator is α i-1 is 90°, θ i is θ4; some MDH parameters of the spatial omnidirectional angle measurement device: the first joint of the measurement device: α i-1 is 90°, θ i is θ6; the second joint of the measuring device: α i-1 is 90°, θ i is θ7; combined with the change matrix method of MDH parameter modeling, it is concluded that the transformation matrix of each link of the centrifugal illusion simulator and the measuring device can be unified as:
[0010]
[0011] The transformation matrix of each link of the centrifugal illusion simulator is as follows:
[0012]
[0013] The transformation matrices of each link are multiplied sequentially, and the transformation matrix of the centrifugal illusion simulator is:
[0014]
[0015] Step 2: Kinematic modeling of the measuring device and calculation of its overall transformation matrix The transformation matrix of each link of the measuring device is as follows:
[0016]
[0017] The transformation matrices of each connecting rod are multiplied sequentially, and the transformation matrix of the measuring device is:
[0018]
[0019] Step 3: Install the measuring device vertically in the illusion simulator cockpit and calculate the transformation matrix from the illusion simulator terminal cockpit coordinate system to the measuring device reference coordinate system When the measuring device is installed vertically in the cockpit of the centrifugal illusion simulator, the Z5 axis of the measuring device is vertically opposite to the X4 axis of the cockpit. When the cockpit coordinate system O4 at the end of the centrifugal illusion simulator rotates -90° around the Y4 axis and rotates θ around the Z5 axis m After that, its posture can coincide with the reference coordinate system O5 of the measuring device, where θ mIt is determined by the actual installation position of the measuring device and is a fixed parameter;
[0020] The transformation matrix from O4 coordinate system to O5 coordinate system is:
[0021]
[0022] Step 4: Multiply the above transformation matrices sequentially to obtain the transformation matrix of the illusion simulator and the measurement device as a whole Then the transformation matrix from the O0 coordinate system to the O7 coordinate system is:
[0023]
[0024] where cθ i is cosθ i Simplified representation; sθ i is sinθ i Simplified representation; sθ 12 is a simplified representation of sin(θ1+θ2); cθ 12 It is a simplified representation of cos(θ1+θ2), and the rest are similar;
[0025] f1-f9 are respectively composed of θ1, θ2, θ3, θ4, θ m , θ6, θ7, except θ m Except for the fixed parameters, all others are variables;
[0026] Step 5: The grip direction is the X7 axis direction; its direction vector in the O0 coordinate system is The actual ground direction is opposite to the Z0 axis, and its direction vector in the O0 coordinate system is The angle between the ground direction perceived by the pilot and the actual ground direction is
[0027]
[0028] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0029] For the centrifugal illusion simulator, the kinematic modeling of the centrifugal illusion simulator and the measuring device is based on the MDH parameter modeling idea, but only α is taken. i-1 and θ i Two angle parameters are used instead of two length parameters, which reduces the amount of computation required for subsequent pose matrix operations; the coordinate systems are all built at the center of the joint, eliminating the need to locate the origin of the coordinate system in the axial direction of the joint in MDH parameter modeling.
[0030] For the centrifugal illusion simulator, kinematic modeling can be performed for it and the measuring device separately. For the parallel illusion simulator, kinematic modeling can be performed for the measuring device based on the known cockpit attitude. Then, the attitude of the measuring device's reference coordinate system in the coordinate system of the illusion simulator terminal is determined without considering its spatial position, thus avoiding the tedious and difficult modeling of it as a whole.
[0031] The measuring device is installed vertically in the cockpit of the illusion simulator. The direction of the grip is the direction of the X7 axis. The actual ground direction is opposite to the Z0 axis, and the angle between the two can be easily measured. The angle between the two can quantitatively reflect the degree of flight illusion.

[0042] The specific implementation modes of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0043] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a flight illusion quantification method for simulator training includes:
[0044] Step 1: Kinematic modeling of the four-axis centrifugal illusion simulator and calculate its overall transformation matrix The four-axis centrifugal illusion simulator includes a four-axis centrifugal illusion simulator main axis 1, a four-axis centrifugal illusion simulator yaw axis 2, a four-axis centrifugal illusion simulator roll axis 3, and a four-axis centrifugal illusion simulator pitch axis 4.

[0049] Combined with the change matrix method of MDH parameter modeling, it is concluded that the transformation matrices of the connecting rods of the centrifugal illusion simulator and the measuring device can be unified as follows:
[0050]
[0051] The transformation matrix of each link of the centrifugal illusion simulator is as follows:
[0052]
[0053] The transformation matrices of each link are multiplied sequentially, and the transformation matrix of the centrifugal illusion simulator is:
[0054]
[0055]
[0056] Step 2: Kinematic modeling of the measuring device and calculation of its overall transformation matrix The transformation matrix of each link of the measuring device is as follows:
[0057]
[0058] The transformation matrices of each connecting rod are multiplied sequentially, and the transformation matrix of the measuring device is:
[0059]
[0060] Step 3: Install the measuring device vertically in the illusion simulator cockpit and calculate the transformation matrix from the illusion simulator terminal cockpit coordinate system to the measuring device reference coordinate system When the measuring device is installed vertically in the cockpit of the centrifugal illusion simulator, the Z5 axis of the measuring device is vertically opposite to the X4 axis of the cockpit. When the cockpit coordinate system O4 at the end of the centrifugal illusion simulator rotates -90° around the Y4 axis and rotates θ around the Z5 axis m After that, its posture can coincide with the reference coordinate system O5 of the measuring device, where θ m It is determined by the actual installation position of the measuring device, is a fixed parameter, and is easy to measure;
[0061] The transformation matrix from O4 coordinate system to O5 coordinate system is:
[0062]
[0063] Step 4: Multiply the above transformation matrices sequentially to obtain the transformation matrix of the illusion simulator and the measurement device as a whole The transformation matrix from the O0 coordinate system to the O7 coordinate system is: Multiply the centrifugal illusion simulator transformation matrix, the transformation matrix from the O4 coordinate system to the O5 coordinate system, and the measurement device transformation matrix in sequence, and the transformation matrix from the O0 coordinate system to the O7 coordinate system is:

[0065] where cθ i is cosθ i Simplified representation; sθ i is sinθ i Simplified representation; sθ 12 is a simplified representation of sin(θ1+θ2); cθ 12 It is a simplified representation of cos(θ1+θ2), and the rest are similar.
[0066] f1~f9 are respectively composed of θ1, θ2, θ3, θ4 and θ m , θ6, θ7, except θ m Except for the fixed parameters, the rest are all variables. Since the calculation results are complicated and inconvenient to display, they are simplified by f1~f9.
[0067] Step 5: The grip direction is the X7 axis direction; its direction vector in the O0 coordinate system is The actual ground direction is opposite to the Z0 axis, and its direction vector in the O0 coordinate system is The angle between the ground direction perceived by the pilot and the actual ground direction is
[0068]
[0069] For the parallel illusion simulator, the above method of kinematic modeling of the simulator is not applicable yet. At present, the classical method can be used to obtain its cockpit attitude. It will not be elaborated here if it is not an innovation of the present invention. However, based on the known cockpit attitude, the measuring device can still be kinematically modeled, and then the attitude of the measuring device reference coordinate system in the parallel illusion simulator terminal coordinate system can be determined. The above method of quantifying the flight illusion by pointing the stick to the direction of the ground as the pilot believes is still applicable.
[0070] The above technical solution describes in detail how to quantitatively represent the degree of flight illusion by using the angle between the grip X7 axis and the illusion simulator Z0 axis in the opposite direction. However, the present invention also has the following embodiments, all of which are within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0071] 1. The position of the X7 axis in the O1 coordinate system can be obtained. According to the above technical solution, we only need to obtain the matrix You can get the direction vector of the X7 axis in the O1 coordinate system The angle between the X7 axis and the opposite direction of the Z1 axis can also be calculated to quantitatively indicate the degree of illusion.
[0072] 2. For most illusions such as tilt illusion and cemetery hover illusion, the grip in this technical solution can be used to point to the ground direction that the pilot believes. For illusions such as body rotation, where it is inconvenient to use the grip to point to the pilot's perceived ground direction, the grip swing angle can be used to indicate the angular velocity of the centrifuge yaw axis rotation that the pilot believes at this time. For example, turning the grip clockwise indicates that the pilot believes that the centrifuge yaw axis is rotating clockwise, and turning the grip counterclockwise indicates that the pilot believes that the centrifuge yaw axis is rotating counterclockwise. The greater the grip rotation angle, the greater the angular velocity of the centrifuge yaw axis rotation that the pilot believes at this time. When the grip is vertically upward relative to the cockpit ground, it means that the pilot believes that the centrifuge yaw axis is not rotating at this time.
[0073] 3. The stick can be pointed not only to the direction of the ground as the pilot thinks it is, but also to the direction of the sky as he thinks it is, or other specified directions.
[0074] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
