Table 2: How the time metrics relate to control class

Class Time Metrics
1 ΔTdand ΔTf are very very small
2 ΔTdj is sufficiently short for Tfto be comfortably within ΔTw
3 Tdj is such that Tfis close to Tw(i.e. a near-miss)
4 Tdj is too late Tfbeing greater than Tw
5 Tmis greater than Twj , Tffollows on soon after
6 Tmis greater than Twj , there is an appreciable delay before Tf
7 Tmis greater than Twj , there is a significant delay before Tf

Note: Δ means time relative to the time of the event, e.g. ΔTdj  = Td  - TE
