Jam Lab Capabilities

We present a general discussion of the BAE Systems real -time missile HITL (Hardware-in-the-Loop) simulator developed over many years. The HITL is used to evaluate the flight performance of the missile under guided flight. The missile tracking and guidance section are left intact except for the front-end optical section that is replaced with a digital scene with reticle signal injection scheme. The appropriate functions such as the point spread function, sensor response function, and a gyroscope model replace the optical section, which includes the dome, spinning or non-spinning telescope, the reticle, and the detector. The mathematical operations required for scene injection are completed in real-time allowing a realistic evaluation of the missile flight performance
