Objectives:
Flight cognitive ability is the core element of guaranteeing flight safety. This study attempts to explore the basic cognitive operation ability of pilots under overload environment, and provides reference for the research on the index screening and monitoring technology methods cognitive operation ability under centrifuge overload condition.
Methods:
A specific cognitive operation ability task is designed, physiological signals such as electroencephalography (EEG) when performing cognitive ability tasks under human centrifuge overload condition are obtained, and the characteristic parameters changes are studied.
Results:
When performing cognitive tasks, both the beta waves and the Theta/Beta Ratio (TBR) parameters in EEG show certain specific changes after the task starts and in the later stage the task.
Conclusions:
Beta wave energy ratio and TBR parameter can better reflect the changes of pilot's cognition under overload environment, and the joint research of multiple frequency bands and multiple parameters helps to find the parameters and indicators with the potential to become the physiological monitoring index of pilot's cognitive operation capacity under overload condition more quickly and better. This study lays a foundation and provides a reference for the follow-up selection of physiological monitoring index of a pilot's cognitive operation ability and the research of monitoring technology on cognitive operation ability under overload condition.
