Abstract
An anti-skid and brake control system for use on an aircraft wherein the output signals from standard anti-skid circuitry are combined with the signals from a brake pedal transducer to create braking signals. The braking signals are applied to current controlled hydraulic valves for regulation of the application and release of brake pressure. The brakes utilized are dual cavity brakes with corresponding cavities of all brakes being interconnected to the same hydraulic line. Shut-off valves are interposed in the hydraulic lines and are operative to enable the brake valves to regulate brake pressure when either brake pedal of the aircraft has been depressed a fixed amount. Biasing circuitry is presented to affect the brake signal in such a manner as to overcome a dead band within the response characteristics of the brake valves utilized.
