DIFFERENTIAL BRAKING OF AIRCRAFT LANDING GEAR WHEELS

摘要

A method of braking left and right landing gear wheels on respective left and right sides of an aircraft. A desired left braking parameter (L) is received for the left wheel and a desired right braking parameter (R) is received for the right wheel. The left wheel is braked with a reduced left braking parameter (L′) which is less than the desired left braking parameter (L), and the right wheel is braked with a reduced right braking parameter (R′) which is less than the desired right braking parameter (R). A difference between the braking parameters is maintained so that L′−W=L−R.

1. A method of braking left and right landing gear wheels on respective left and right sides of an aircraft, the method comprising: receiving a desired left braking parameter (L) for the left wheel; receiving a desired right braking parameter (R) for the right wheel; braking the left wheel with a reduced left braking parameter (L′) which is less than the desired left braking parameter (L); and braking the right wheel with a reduced right braking parameter (R′) which is less than the desired right braking parameter (R), wherein L′−R′=L−R.
