Abstract :
Aiming at the drawbacks of document based UAV system specification, a Rhapsody and Simulink based UAV Flight Control System (FCS) Virtual prototype design method is presented. Firstly, improvements of SysML, Rhapsody and Simulink were introduced. Secondly, we researched a detailed FCS virtual prototype design workflow. Finally, taking Predator FCS system for example, the virtual prototype of Predator UAV was designed to verify & validate intended functions, behaviors of Predator FCS.
