Abstract

A brake system of an aircraft may include a first brake control assembly, a second brake control assembly, a first brake control unit electrically coupled to the first brake control assembly, a second brake control unit electrically coupled to the second brake control assembly, and an arbitration control module. The arbitration control module may be configured to determine an operational integrity of the first brake control unit and the second brake control unit. In response to determining that one of the first brake control unit and the second brake control unit does not have sufficient operational integrity, the arbitration control module may enable the other of the first brake control unit and the second brake control unit to control both the first brake control assembly and the second brake control assembly.
