Sound Analysis and Synthesis for Audio Simulation System of Flight Simulator

Article Preview

Abstract:

Through simulating the feelings of vision, hearing, motion and force during flight, the flight simulator can build a realistic flight environment on the ground. Therefore, Flight simulators have an important role in pilot training field. Audio simulation system is a key component of the flight simulator, it has direct impact on the realism and immersion of flight simulation. In this paper, we introduced the development procedure of audio simulation system shortly. Software implementation and its key development technology were mainly focused for expressing the necessity of extracting sound sources from original cockpit recordings. Based on the development method and practical recording conditions, we dicussed sound short-time Fourier analysis and synthesis technology, and sound linear prediction analysis and synthesis technology in detail. The objective of using these technologies was to extract sound sources from original recordings and this was also the preparation step of sound simulation.
