Abstract
Measurements of driver describing functions in steering control tasks have been made using the Driving Simulator at UCLA. The task was to regulate against a random crosswind gust input on a straight roadway, in order to stay in the center of the lane. The driver describing functions were measured using an STI describing function analyzer. The results confirm the feasibility of measuring human operator response properties in nominal control tasks with full (real-world) visual field displays, and they provide some verification and quantification of existing engineering models for the driver and the driver/vehicle system.
