    Abstract:
    The frequency-fluctuation characteristics in alpha frequency band were studied by EEG-Encephalofluctuographic Technology (EEG-ET) in 261 pilots. The electrical activity was recorded from 12 scalp monopolar leads of the international 10-20 system using linked ear lobes as reference. The components of the competitive frequency-fluctuation structure in alpha frequency band was analysed. The results showed that the predominant frequency component of the competitive structure was 9 Hz in the 261 normal healthy pilots. The second was 10 Hz. And the third was 7 Hz. The other competitive frequency components were inhibited. The relative entropy value (percentage) of the competivity structure was calculated for each EEG derivation of each pilot. We also analysed the spectra of the EEG-Encephalofluctuograph. We found that there was a dominant power peak at 21.39mHz in 57 pilots who complained in-flight blackout sometimes during acceleration.
