Digital Array Signal Processing Techniques Applied to Guidance and Navigation.

AUG 1979

Authors: S. Bloch; UNIDENTIFIED SOURCE

A great many systems make use of highly versatile digital signal processing methods. In most cases filtering operations are performed in which the signal spectrum is altered. Pulse compression, MTI clutter cancelling, FFT spectral analysis etc. are typical examples for such applications. In this paper spatial filtering, in particular virtual beam forming techniques, appropriate for guidance and precision landing operation are discussed. Systems operating at L-Band are briefly described demonstrating ...

An Assessment of and Approach to the Validation of Digital Flight Control Systems.

AUG 1979

Authors: D. B. Mulcare; W. G. Ness; LOCKHEED-GEORGIA CO MARIETTA

Digital flight control systems (DFCS) present unique and increasingly demanding validation problems which challenge the capability of existing assurance methods and practices. Rooted largely in the nature and scope of the flight software, these problems are becoming more urgent owing to the trends toward more flight-critical functions and more extensive system integration. Both of these trends tend to cause increased complexity, which already is a matter of significant concern. Future ...
