Static and Dynamic GNSS Attitude Function Testing of Airborne Equipment

H. Kannemans

Abstract: In the future reliable and accurate GNSS based attitude measurement equipment will be developed for application in aviation. Since aviation application requires reliable attitude determination the newly developed attitude measurement equipment must be tested thoroughly. In this paper a two step method for testing the GNSS attitude function is presented. The first step is static testing, using a static angular reference system. The second step is performing ground and dynamic flight tests using a test aircraft. This test scenario has been practiced successfully at the NLR. Example test results are presented.
