Abstract
A method and apparatus for controlling an anti-skid braking system that uses wheel speed and wheel cylinder pressure to maximize braking power during an antilock stop. The pressure is adjusted to hold the wheel to a wheel speed reference and that wheel speed reference is adjusted to maximize braking power. Braking power may be viewed as the product of wheel cylinder pressure and wheel velocity. An algorithm to maximize braking power is then employed to control the application of braking force to the wheel.
