This paper describes the application of a deterministic theory for characterizing or modeling the dynamics of a human operator in a manual control system. Linear time-varying, nonlinear time-varying, and non-linear constant-coefficient models are obtained by applying the theory to tracking data taken for one- and two-axis tasks with various displays. The accuracy and fidelity of these advanced models are explored in detail. Also, new information about time variability and nonlinearity of the human operator, obtained by studying the models and the manual control system signals, is presented.

Two manual control systems with rhesus monkey operators have been studied using control theory techniques. The first control system was a single-axis compensatory task; the second was a dual-axis ground-based simulator. The present study summarizes the control theory analysis of these two previous experiments. The crossover model, developed for human operators in manual control systems, was successfully applied to these data. Results of the present study provide additional evidence for monkey-man extrapolation in the area of manual control.

The requirement for a credible monkey-man extrapolation in the area of manual control systems led to the investigation of the predictor-operator phenomenon in rhesus monkeys performing in a manual control system. Two monkeys were trained to proficiency in a single-axis visual compensatory manual control system using a random (unpredictable) system input. Data were obtained for system performance in the random case. The system input was then changed to pure sinusoidal (predictable). Data were obtained for the sinusoidal case and compared with data for the random case. Unlike humans, monkeys were not able to improve system performance in the predictable versus unpredictable case.
