Abstract
What is described is a system for determining a force applied to an outer disc of an aircraft brake by an actuator motor. The system includes a current sensor coupled to the actuator motor and configured to detect an amount of current applied to the actuator motor. The system also includes a controller coupled to the current sensor. The controller is configured to determine an estimate of the force applied to the outer disc based on the detected amount of current and predetermined input parameters.
