In today's highly automated aircraft, the role of the pilot has changed from an airplane controller to a system manager. As a system manager in a cockpit, today's pilot is in charge of a management-level activity called cockpit task management( CTM). According to earlier studies, pilot errors in performing CTM activities were significant factors in a large number of aircraft accidents and incidents. The primary objective of this research was to reduce CTM-related pilot errors. A prototype pilot- vehicle interface called the cockpit task management system (CTMS) was developed and its effectiveness in improving CTM performance was evaluated. After the CTMS was implemented, it was integrated into a PC-based flight simulator to perform an experiment to evaluate its effectiveness. Eight volunteer subjects were used to collect performance data. The results of the experiment indicated that a statistically significant improvement was observed when the subjects flew with the assistance of the CTMS.

This letter presents an approximation of the outage probability of the pilot channel that can be used for CDMA cell planning. The approximation can determine system parameters for soft handover in IS-95-based cellular CDMA downlink design. Computer simulations show that our analytical results agree with empirical results.

Due to the recent aircraft accidents both in Ethiopian airline and Malaysian airline, almost all the media are focusing the importance of the airline safety. Especially, media's eyes and ears are interested in the reasons why Malaysia airline's missing presumed as by either terrorist attack or pilot's mistake. Safety Behaviors of pilot are viewed as the most important human factor issues among researchers. This is because, if it were the case of a commercial airline, pilot's safety behavior would be directly related to the lives of couple of hundreds passengers. This paper considers the antecedents of this safety behaviors as pilot's leadership, pilot's leadership and self-efficacy. This paper has tried to find out which human factors of a pilot would have significant impact on their safety behaviors. According to the empirical research result from SEM (Structural Equation Model), it was found out both the leadership and self-efficacy of a pilot had direct impact on their safety behaviors through safety motivation. Thus it could be concluded that flight crew must follow the instruction of a pilot who had the authority of the flight operation. The managerial implication are discussed in the conclusion part of this paper. As an implication, this paper concluded that it would be necessary to do further research on pilot's leadership and self-efficacy.

For Wi-Fi and IoT wireless systems, high-capacity wireless communication technology is being applied using MIMO OFDM. Because of virtu0al subcarriers in the practical MIMO OFDM system, the pilot subcarriers cannot be spaced equally. Thus, it is difficult to obtain a good mean square error (MSE) performance of the channel estimate. This paper proposes applicable methods and the newly discovered locations of pilot subcarriers in four transmitted antennas resulting in a good MSE performance with proposed optimization algorithms.

도선사는 해상에서 도선사용 사다리나 승하선사다리를 통해 선박에 승선하고 있어 예측할 수 없는 해상환경의 위험에 늘 노출되어있다. 도선사는 항만으로 입항하거나 출항하는 선박의 안전을 확보하는 중요한 역할을 수행하고 있으므로 도선사 부상은 선박 전체 안전에 큰 영향을 미친다. 본 연구의 목적은 도선사 관련 준사고를 분석하고 사고를 예측하는 것이다. 이를 위해 도선사 상해사고 사례를 분석하고 설문조사를 통해 잠재상황을 식별하고자 했다. 그리고 도선사 상해사고 경향을 예측하였다. 설문조사의 분석은 IPA 분석법을 활용했으며, 상해사고 경향 예측을 하기 위해 이항분포 및 푸아송분포를 활용하였다. 연구결과 도선사 상해사고 1건당 316.8건의 준사고가 발생했으며, 사고관리 시스템의 현행 유지 시 3개월 내 도선사 상해사고가 발생할 확률은 64.4%로 나타났다. 연구결과를 바탕으로 도선사 상해사고 예방을 위한 관리 시스템의 필요성과 도선사 승선용 사다리에 대한 유지보수 및 설치 강화를 제언했다.

In this paper, optimal parameters of a hopping pilot beacon are analyzed in a CDMA mobile cellular network. The hopping pilot beacon is used for inter-frequency handoff. It can reduce the number of pilot beacons needed for the inter-frequency handoff by transmitting neighbor frequency pilots periodically through a pilot beacon. The optimal parameters for transmission time and period of the hopping pilot bacon are derived by mathematical approach. It is highly recommended that the optimal values for the hopping pilot beacon under various operation environments.

The capability of pilot injection with small fuel quantity at all engine operating conditions is one of the main feature of the common rail direct injection system. The purpose of the pilot injection is to lower the engine noise and to reduce the NOx emissions. This study describes the pilot spray structure characteristics of the common-rail diesel injectors with different electric driving characteristics, including solenoid-driven and piezo-driven type. Namely three common-rail injectors with different electric current wave were investigated in this study. The pilot spray characteristics such as spray speed, spray tip penetration, and spray angle were obtained by spray images, which is measured by the back diffusion light illumination method with optical system for high-speed temporal photography. As this research results, it was found that pilot injection of common-rail system was effected by rate of injection with different electrical characteristic for injector driving.

선박이 부두에 이접안할 경우 쓰러스터나 특수 추진기가 없는 선박은 예선의 도움을 받아 이접안을 하게 된다. 이접안시 예선들은 도선사의 명령에 의하여 선박의 이접안을 도와주게 된다. 이때 본선과 예선의 위치가 2차원 지도에 표시되고 부두와의 상대적인 거리가 나타난다면 이접안에 매우 도움이 될 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 예선사용 지윈 시스템에 대해서 개념 설계를 수행하였다. 예선사용 지원 시스템은 본선, 예선 및 부두의 상황을 모니터링하는 예선사용 모니터링 기능과 해양환경을 고려하여 필요한 예선력을 계산하여 나타내주는 예선사용 자동화 기능을 갖고 있다. 이러한 예선사용 지원 시스템은 항만에 설치된 네트워크를 기반으로 설계되었으며, 추후 한국해양연구원의 선박운항 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 검증될 계획이다.

Pilots and navigators have through history used everything available to support them in the execution of their task. From the simple sounding means (for instance a stick or a line with a heavy object tied to it) to the advanced electronic support systems that are available today. This means that apart from the more traditional side of his set of tasks the influence of modern technology is felt. In general it concerns such diverse and complex subjects that it requires the pilot to remain up to date with regard to the most modern techniques. In a sense this also concurs with the change form a provider of (local) knowledge to that of a manager of a high risk operation. More information flows can reach the pilot on the place where he executes his profession. With marginal scope the pilot has to translate such information to the situation in which he finds himself in order to give a balanced advice. Knowledge of the surroundings, variable circumstances in his specific area but also language and culture play a crucial role. This paper touches on the history of pilot support systems and examines the developments of pilot support systems in the present day operating environment and addresses the implications. These range from the historic basic needs for pilot information to the present and future possibilities, supporting the pilot to make the most precise assessment at each operational stage to continually execute a safe journey in and out of port.
