Predictive Model for Workload in Remote Operators During sUAS Contingency Scenarios

The increase in automated capabilities of small Uncrewed Aerial Systems (sUAS) has enabled the human operators to manage larger numbers of vehicles simultaneously. As this happens, the operational paradigm shifts to an m:N configuration where multiple operators (m) are managing multiple vehicles (N) together. However, many questions about how operators will interact with each other and share interaction across the vehicle pool are yet unanswered. Therefore, stakeholders from government and industry have partnered to develop ground control station concepts for such operations. The work presented in this paper aims to identify factors that contribute to operator workload. A supervised machine learning-based method built using Support Vector Machines and K-fold cross-validation was used to create workload prediction models for various NASA TLX subscales by leveraging features related to interactions and their relative timings during m:N operations. Results show that the models yielded fairly high predictive accuracies ranging from ~60-75%.

sUAS Ground Control Station Capabilities Impact on Fleet Management

Future Small Uncrewed Aerial Systems (sUAS) missions will require multiple operators to collaborate and manage large fleets of highly automated vehicles. It is critical that these operators maintain the necessary situational awareness to modify vehicle missions if/when unexpected situations arise in the operating environment. It has been suggested that highly automated vehicle capabilities can lead to reducing the capabilities given to operators to modify/direct vehicle missions. This paper explores various Ground Control Station (GCS) capabilities configurations and their impact on sUAS fleet management. Results show that a GCS with a combination of manual and automated capabilities allowed participants to make more effective decisions while maintaining workload and response times similar to that of a GCS with only automated capabilities.
