Novel air mobility concepts will transform the way we travel. More electric aircraft concepts pave the way into sustainable air transportation and eVTOLs (electric vertical take-off-and-landing aircraft) unite the advantages of multi-copters with those of fixed-wing aircraft.  

Bringing electric aircraft like eVTOLs into service poses distinct challenges. Control systems like the battery management system (BMS), controllers of the electric propulsion system or advanced flight controllers need to be tested requirements-based and end-to-end. Testing shall support fast iterations and needs to integrate with a certification framework. Furthermore, engineers need to fast-track testing and development to meet the ambitious timelines.

This webinar provides engineers who develop and test control systems of electric aircraft with model-based development and testing tools. We’ll demonstrate actual hardware-in-the-loop testing of actual control systems leveraging Speedgoat test systems and the MATLAB^® and Simulink^® model-based design ecosystem. 

Topics that we will cover include:

• Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing of battery management systems (BMS) using emulated batteries including testing of thermal behavior and fault conditions.  
• HIL testing of electric motor drives and their embedded controllers using simulated electric motors whose dynamic behavior is represented on Simulink-Programmable FPGAs  
• Automated and requirements-based testing of flight controllers from early prototype states until final deployment using continuous integration.
