Aircraft throttle control system - has shear detector and compensator to reduce speed variation during moderate and heavy turbulence and incorporates gust bias provision

摘要

The system is for processing signals representative of airspeed error and inertial longitudinal acceleration in two channels, respectively, and providing cancellation of the turbulence-induced components of the respective signals. Shear detection and compensation circuits are provided in the system for reducing speed wandering in moderate and heavy turbulence. A circuit processing the signal from the shear detector circuit is utilised to provide a gust bias signal input in the system.
