Design of distributed measurement and control system for artillery servo system performance parameters

The importance and effect of artillery servo system in all kinds of automated weapons are narrated. The requirements of type approval test for artillery servo system are introduced. A new kind of distributed measurement and control system based on CAN bus is put forward, which is used in type approval test of artillery servo system to accomplish four measurement and control tasks: driving servo system by simulating the output signal of fire control system; achieving automatic control of shooting occasion and shooting number in firing test; measuring all kinds of performance parameters for servo system; and measuring the power supply parameters of servo system. System design qualifications are given out. Key engineering roadblocks in the design and development phase are analyzed. Actual performance proves that the measurement and control system satisfies the requirement of design qualifications.
