BRAKE POSITION AND WEAR DETECTION SYSTEM AND METHOD

The present disclosure provides an electromechanical brake actuator system 200 comprising an electromechanical brake actuator 210 coupled to a derived position sensor 220, the derived position sensor comprising a controller 224, a rotation sensor 222, and an output drive circuit 228. In various embodiments, the derived position sensor 220 may be configured to receive a first motor shaft angular velocity at a first time 401, receive a second motor shaft angular velocity at a second time 402, calculate a linear translation distance 403, and sum the linear translation distance and a previous ram position to obtain an actual ram position 404.
