WINGS CONCEPT: PRESENT AND FUTURE

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 20-23, 2003 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / The Western Aeronautical Test Range (WATR) of NASA’s Dryden Flight Research Center (DFRC) is
facing a challenge in meeting the technology demands of future flight mission projects. Rapid growth in
technology for aircraft has resulted in complexity often surpassing the capabilities of the current WATR
real-time processing and display systems. These current legacy systems are based on an architecture
that is over a decade old. In response, the WATR has initiated the development of the WATR
Integrated Next Generation System (WINGS). The purpose of WINGS is to provide the capability to
acquire data from a variety of sources and process that data for subsequent analysis and display to
Project Users in the WATR Mission Control Centers (MCCs) in real-time, near real-time and
subsequent post-mission analysis. WINGS system architecture will bridge the continuing gap between
new research flight test requirements and capability by distributing current system architectures to
provide incremental and iterative system upgrades.
