Tachometer systems and methods of determining the rotation speed of a wheel of a landing gear of an aircraft

摘要

A tachometer system for an aircraft landing gear. The tachometer system includes a tachometer arranged to generate a variable voltage signal in response to the rotation of a wheel of the aircraft landing gear, and a processing system arranged to output a speed signal indicative of the rotation speed of the wheel of the aircraft landing gear. The speed signal is determined from the variable voltage signal from the tachometer using a set of determined parameters. The determined parameters of the processing system are determined from the voltage levels of the variable voltage signal.
