Aircraft electric braking system

摘要

An electrically actuated braking system for an aircraft. The system includes: an electro-mechanical brake actuator (EMAbrake) proximate a wheel of the aircraft, the EMAbrake including a motor; an electro-mechanical actuator controller (EMAC) including a motor controller for generating a drive signal for the EMAbrake; a braking control unit (BCU) for generating a braking force command signal for the EMAC during a normal mode of operation; and an emergency braking control unit (eBCU) for generating a braking force command signal for the EMAC during an emergency operating mode. The eBCU is disposed together with the EMAC in a common line replaceable unit (LRU).
