The elements, both hardware and software, entering into the establishment of a system aboard ship for testing a concept for aircraft carrier deck motion prediction are described. The test procedures and results experienced in full scale evaluation are also presented. Due to lack of sufficiently severe environmental wave disturbances in some cases, as well as limited operational speed characteristics of the ship in other cases, the information obtained during the full scale tests was not suitable for proper evaluation of the motion prediction technique. The major source of difficulty encountered in the situation with sufficiently severe ocean waves was interference due to ship-generated waves, which would be overcome by having a forward speed of 10 kts. or greater. All aspects of data processing necessary in this program functioned properly, and a proposed method of wave motion prediction was shown to be successful. Further full scale testing under conditions with significant ship motions while the carrier has sufficiently high speed is recommended for complete evaluation of the prediction technique. (Author)
