AEROSPACE BLOCKSET
Aerospace Blockset provides Simulink reference examples and blocks for modeling, simulating, and analyzing high-fidelity aircraft, rotorcraft, and spacecraft platforms. The blockset includes vehicle dynamics, validated models of the flight environment, and blocks for pilot behavior, actuator dynamics, and propulsion. Built-in aerospace math operations and coordinate system and spatial transformations let you represent atmospheric vehicle and spacecraft motion and orientation. To examine simulation results, you can connect visualization blocks, including photorealistic views, to your model.
Aerospace Blockset provides standard model architectures for building reusable vehicle platform models. These models can support flight and mission analysis; conceptual studies; detailed mission design; guidance, navigation, and control (GNC) algorithm development; software integration testing; and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing for applications in autonomous flight, radar, and communications.
Atmospheric Flight
For atmospheric flight platforms, including rotorcraft, use blocks to model dynamics, perform simulations, and understand system behavior under various flight and environment conditions.
Spacecraft Simulation
Model, simulate, and analyze the motion and dynamics of spacecraft and satellite constellations. Use solar system ephemeris data to calculate the position and velocity of celestial objects over time.
Flight Visualization
Visualize and understand aerospace vehicle dynamics by using cockpit flight instruments, connecting to the FlightGear flight simulator, or connecting your simulation to a photorealistic 3D environment with Unreal Engine®
Vehicle Components
Model vehicle components, such as linear and nonlinear actuators, human pilot behavior, and engine systems.
Flight and Mission Analysis
Use templates and functions to perform advanced analysis on the dynamic response of aerospace vehicles. Perform high-level mission analysis with the satelliteScenario object from Aerospace Toolbox.
Environment Models
Use validated environment models to represent standard atmospheric, gravity, and magnetic field profiles as well as standard wind conditions.
Guidance, Navigation, and Control
Use guidance blocks to calculate distance between vehicles; navigation blocks to model accelerometers, gyroscopes, and IMUs; and controller blocks to control the motion of aerospace vehicles.
