Abstract
An antiskid braking system includes an improved apparatus for generating a lead signal to provide lead compensation. According to one feature of this apparatus, the gain of the apparatus is made to vary as a function of a signal, such as the brake control signal generated by the antiskid system, which is indicative of the coefficient of braking under severe braking conditions. Another feature of the invention is that the apparatus operates to reduce the magnitude of the lead signal when it exceeds a limit value, preferably by clamping the lead signal to a maximum magnitude.
