Enabling Distributed Simulation


The IFAD SIM Gateway (ISIMGW) is a proven simulator networking platform with a suite of gateways and filtering solutions that enables live, virtual and constructive (LVC) systems to actively participate in distributed simulation exercises. ISIMGW enables rapid integration of simulation assets into distributed simulation environments. It is used to link live systems and simulators into integrated test beds, training environments and distributed simulation exercises.

 

 

 

ISIMGW - Gateways and filtering solutions

 

  • ISIM Bridge (DIS,HLA, LINK-16)
  • ISIM C2 Gateway (SitaWare C2 SimGW)
  • ISIM Monitor

 

 

Rapid integration


Application areas

  • Joint multi-role scenarios including Land, Air and Naval simulators.
  • Integrated training environments including CMS, C2, sensor & weapons simulators,

     and scenario generators.

  • Distributed simulation between warfare training centers, training ranges and test sites
  • LVC: Live, Virtual & Constructive training environments.

 

Benefits

 

  • Short integration time
  • Platform and protocol independent interface
  • Multiple protocols (DIS and HLA and various FOM’s)
  • Platforms (Windows).

 

Industrial Standards

ISIMGW uses the Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS) and High Level Architecture (HLA) standards for run-time scenario data exchange.
