www.Primo.com: Aircraft Wheel Movement system.

Background.

The aircraft is one of the modal transportation very often used by most people to travel long distances. Obviously the safety factor is needed to ensure the safety of the passengers. One factor working system security is the plane itself. The whole system of the aircraft has a very important function and interrelated. If one system can not work properly, it will disrupt the overall system. For example, when the aircraft will be landing (landing), but the system is working to remove the aircraft wheel does not work then the plane could not land safely and would greatly endanger passengers. To that end, one of the functions of aircraft systems work well to note is the landing gear system. Landing gear wheels system is a system plane when landing (landing) or off (take off). When the plane will land, the aircraft must be able lowered wheel so that the aircraft can be landed and drove over the runway. Likewise, when the plane will take off (take off) then the wheels must be able to be raised and put in a plane flying in the air so that the system can be balanced. Whether or not the wheels moving aircraft pilots known only through indicator lights inside the cockpit of the aircraft. The pilot did not know the exact position of the wheel in real time while on the move.

This study, entitled Designing Prototype Landing Gear System And Movement Monitoring Aircraft Wheels With AVR Microcontroller Based Kalman Filter aims to realize the prototype aircraft landing systems and monitoring the movement of aircraft wheels by using a low-cost microcontroller system. In this study will be presented the design of a microcontroller system that can be used and reliable in the industry. The design of the control system includes a system power supply is used, EMI filters for protection against electromagnetic interference, optocoupler as electrical protection to avoid sudden reset to the microcontroller due to the use of relays, as well as the use of Kalman filters for sensor readings gyroscope and accelerometer to monitor movement of the prototype wheels plane. In this study, monitoring simulated via laptop display with serial communication so that the movement of the wheels can be observed in real time. Mechanical system design also conducted to simulate the conditions of an actual emergency landing aircraft.

The prototype is equipped with a lamp indicator LED and buzzer to meet the needs of the landing gear system simulation. Later, the prototype is expected to be a reference to the application of microcontrollers in high technology such as aircraft. In addition, aircraft wheels monitoring system in real time is expected to increase the factor of safety and ease pilot in overseeing the work system in particular aircraft movement aircraft wheels.

Problem Formulation.

Based on the above background, the problem can be formulated in this study, namely:
1. What is the procedure correct aircraft landing system.
2. How to design a mechanical system on the prototype landing gear system.
3. How to design a prototype system on the landing gear control system.
4. How to design a prototype system of monitoring the movement of aircraft wheels.

Prototype Design And Monitoring System Landing Gear Wheel Movement Based AirCraft Kalman.

Some of the objectives to be achieved in this study :

1. Understand the landing gear system operations both normal and emergency conditions (emergency).
2. Understand the landing gear drive system. (for this final task is simulated using a pneumatic system, while actually using the hydraulic system).
3. Understand the parameters reference operational landing gear drive system.
4. Designing a control system for operating the landing gear.
5. Designing a mechanical system for operating the landing gear.
6. Designing HMI prototype for monitoring the movement of aircraft wheels.
7. Sync control systems with mechanical systems landing gear system.
8. Perform operational testing on the prototype landing gear system for normal and emergency conditions.

Benefits Research

The benefits of this research are :

1. Applying the AVR microcontroller control system in high technology such as aircraft.
2. Being one of the affordable technology solutions and also reliable to be applied.
3. As a tool for young engineers in understanding the aircraft's systems, especially the landing gear system.
4. Adding a safety factor on the plane because the pilot can monitor in real time the movement of the wheels. Thank you for reading this article. Written and posted by Bambang Sunarno. sunarnobambang86@gmail.com
