Human Factors Experiments for Data Link

Abstract

The report discusses three experiments aimed at providing information pertinent to the Data Link Operational Experiments Program. Section 1 describes the evaluation of the WIDCOM, a visual display, and a voice synthesizer for providing ATC information to pilots in a GAT-1 simulator. Section 2 is concerned with the evaluation of the intelligibility of the individual works in the vocabulary of the voice synthesizer. Section 3 describes an experiment to provide information as to possible coding formats for short message ATC commands and advisories.
