Abstract
The rate at which a man can transmit information in simple pursuit and compensatory systems is measured. Highest transmission rates are obtained with input signals whose power-density spectra correspond to RC-filtered noise. Pursuit systems gave higher transmission rates than compensatory.Keywords
