An Avionics Flight Evaluation System (AFES) was developed, particularly for navigation systems. A tracking radar and a laser tracker on the ground, and an inertial navigation system onboard the test aircraft measure flight trajectories. The data are combined by optimal filters. In order to be able to evaluate in real time, computers are used at different locations. All elements of this measurement system are linked together by an efficient data transfer system. Besides the reference system, AFES contains subsystems for artificial traffic loading and measuring multipath effects.
