PWI REQUIREMENTS STUDY.
Abstract
A description is presented of the results ob tained from two experiments in the Pilot Warning Instrument (PWI) Evaluation Study. The experi ments were performed using the F-100 A simulator in an F-151 gunnery trainer. One experiment studied the precision with which warning informa tion must be presented to the pilot in order to be of maximal benefit. It was found that as bearing information increased in accuracy up to a standard deviation of 1.5 degrees probability of detection improved. The second experiment was designed to measure the usefulness of different levels of PWI. The general conclusion which may be drawn from the experiment is that a simple warning has little effect on the detectability of intruders. (Author)
