Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast Enabled, Wake Vortex Mitigation Using Cockpit Display
… the development and testing of a prototype cockpit display to help pilots avoid this wake turbulence using ADS-B technology. Several landing profiles of the wake generating aircraft and the trailing aircraft were created using computer simulations to generate the synthetic data. A tracking …

Instrument Pilot Skill Acquisition in the Early Phases of Flight Training Using an Advanced Cockpit Display System
… lower level of workload on the synthetic vision display compared to conventional instruments. Levels of performance were significantly higher in the SVS condition, and revealed a quadratic trend, supporting the hypothesis that skill acquisition occurs faster while training with the SVS. These …

Effects of Air Traffic Geometry and Conflict Alerting System Reliability on Pilots' Conflict Detection With Cockpit Display of Traffic Information
In Experiment 2, the difficult and easy conflict trials from Experiment 1 were replayed to a new set of pilots, now equipped with an imperfect automation detection alert, that provided them with three levels of predicted conflict risk, and occasionally made errors. Some pilots benefited from this …

Human factors studies of an ADS-B based traffic alerting system for general aviation
… associated with installation of a multi-function display (MFD), an audio based TSAA system was also designed to account for constrained cockpit space and added cost of a MFD. TSAA System performance & basic usability was tested using human in the loop studies using a total of 50 general aviation …
