Abstract

We determined the effect of NextGen concepts of operation for separation assurance on pilot situation awareness and workload using an online probe technique. We also evaluated the probe technique for sensitivity, diagnosticity, and validity with respect to different NextGen separation assurance operating concepts. These concepts allocated responsibility for conflict detection and resolution to either pilots, air traffic controllers, or an automated, ground-based, conflict detection and resolution agent. Probe queries were developed to fit in 1 of 3 categories: traffic conflicts, aircraft or airspace status, or commands and communications. We determined that pilot situation awareness of conflict information was highest when the pilot was responsible for separation assurance; workload was minimally affected. Moreover, the changes in pilot awareness of task-specific information can be determined using this online probe technique. Evidence for the reliability and validity of our probe technique is also provided.

测量用于分离保证的下一代操作概念对飞行员态势感知和工作量的影响

我们使用在线探测技术确定了NextGen分离保障操作概念对飞行员态势感知和工作量的影响。我们还针对不同的NextGen分离保证操作概念评估了探针技术的灵敏度、诊断性和有效性。这些概念将冲突检测和解决的责任分配给飞行员、空中交通管制员或自动化的地面冲突检测和解决代理。探测查询被开发成适合以下三种类型之一:交通冲突，飞机或空域状态，或命令和通信。我们确定，当飞行员负责分离保证时，飞行员对冲突信息的态势感知最高;工作负荷受到的影响最小。此外，利用这种在线探测技术可以确定飞行员对特定任务信息的意识变化。为我们的探针技术的可靠性和有效性提供了证据。
