Research on the Workload of the Controller-to-Be Based on the Radar Simulator

Abstract:

The radar simulator practice of the controller-to-be was studied in this paper, according to the control instruction classification and the statistics of their occurrence frequency and time. The air traffic controller-to-be workload model and weight calculate algorithm based on the radar service type was proposed. The concept of workload sensitivity was defined, though which the relationship between workload and traffic. Research on the workload of the controller-to-be is of great importance for setting reasonable radar simulator exercise, as well as cultivating the control skills of the students.
