Abstract
This paper presents the capabilities of a Simcenter-based simulation framework to validate automated flight functions (AFF) for eVTOL aircraft systems. This is accomplished by coupling the modelled aircraft subsystems and sensors in Simcenter Amesim and Simcenter Prescan with external functionalities available in Robot Operating System (ROS). In particular, the Detect and Avoid (DAA) PX4-Avoidance algorithm and the simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) LeGO-LOAM algorithm are tested within the proposed framework. Simulations evaluate the performance of the implemented algorithms in urban scenarios.
