Modular Trajectory Generation Test Platform for Real Flight Systems

The paper presents a trajectory generation system, which is used as test platform for different research projects, regarding trajectory aspects. The focus of the development lies in the modularity and flexibility of the system. It can therefore be used within a broad range of projects with different requirements for trajectory generation. Hence, the presented module is clustered into the relevant functions, where each function is implemented as a replaceable subsystem. This allows a quick and easy variation of the desired behavior within a robust environment. An example is the use of different curve approaches for the trajectory, which can be implemented while using a stable moding or waypoint planning. The system functions are demon-strated as part of an integrated Flight Guidance and Control System.     «
