Architecture of an electromechanical braking system
DRIVE
May 4, 2011
The architecture has electro mechanical actuator controllers (EMAC1-EMAC8) providing power signals to electro mechanical brake actuators (1-4) in response to a braking order. Wheels (L1, L2, R1, R2) on each of landing gears are regrouped into two complementary groups such that group of two electromechanical braking actuators is controlled by one of the controllers that controls the two actuators and another complementary group of the other actuators is controlled by other controllers that control the other actuators.
