Updates and overhauls to the aircraft must also be reproduced in the simulator and the Telestra modeling system allows for that capability. The long life span of the B-52 aircraft means a long life for the simulator, as well. Maintain concurrency of the simulator, staying up to date with updates provided to the real aircraft Recent ASTi updates to the B-52 JVoice channels supported further SISO and IEEE standards. Telestra is field-proven interoperable across all of the DoD's training programs, including Air Force CAF DMO and MAF DMO, Army LVC-IA, Navy NIS, Marine Corps ADVTE, and Joint Staff JNTC. Maintain ongoing compliance with USAF simulation standards including CAF DMO. The entire TCS subsystem is powered by an independent, uninterruptible power source that ensures operation during power outages. This DDI-RIU combination allowed the ASTi system to act independently and provide essential communication functions when all other simulator subsystems were down. To directly take instructor Rx/Tx selects from their TCS control panel, ASTi employed distributed digital I/O (DDI) hardware paired with its ACE-RIU device to collect microphone audio and provide audio output capabilities. This system would enable students and instructors to communicate throughout the normal training exercise, as well as in an emergency scenario where only the Telestra servers are powered and operational. Provide an offline simulator communication system.ĪSTi worked with the B-52 team to meet a requirement that mandated a secondary communications system that must function without relying on host inputs. Press-to-talk, vox, hot/cold mic, and volume control.Selectable full- or half-duplex operation.Bus and warning tone priority capabilities.Voice warning and warning tone simulation.Point-to-point and party line/communication bus structures.Flexible voice switching for intercom between trainees and instructors.Some of the main features of Intercoms include: Simulated intercom capabilities include party line, point-to-point communications buses, and priority bus structures. The simulated Intercom Telestra component set provides sound modeling features and provides the capability to model complex communications structures such as: communications bus, communications control panel, audio signal routing and logic, and instructor/trainer inter-communications. Microphone audio, as well as transmit and receive signals, are mixed and routed to the appropriate headset based on the switch and volume state information. Simulator communication panel switch states and volume settings are sent to the Telestra directly, with minimal logic manipulation by the host computer. The communications panel Telestra component provides modeling of ownship radio, receiver, and communications bus routing, switching, and mixing. Passing of data messages between radio objects.Interface with a terrain, weather or effects server for enhanced propagation modeling.Separate transmit and receive frequencies within the same radio component.Press-to-talk, hot/cold mic, volume control. ![]() World positioning of radios (geocentric, geodetic).Line-of-sight and over-the-horizon simulation.Voice messages for simulation of ATIS, GCA/CCA, ground stations background radio chatter.Standard or user-defined background noise characteristics.Tones or noises heard for encrypted radios (preamble, postamble, mis-match).Specific radio type modeling such as SINCGARS, HF, UHF, VHF, satellite, and others.AM/FM transmission and band interference.Transmission/reception and station fade based on distance and signal strength.Simulation of transmitters, receivers, navigational aids, and jammers.Provide a high-fidelity, simulated radio environment with a range of realistic effects and an ICS system that fully replicates the aircraft intercom functionality.ĪSTi's Telestra radio modeling environment provides the following radio simulation capabilities: High-Fidelity Radio and Intercom Switching (ICS) Modeling
