Electromechanical braking system architecture

1. A braking system architecture for an aircraft having wheels ( 1 ) braked by means of respective brakes ( 2 ), each brake having a plurality of electromechanical actuators ( 3 ), the braking system having controllers ( 8 ) for distributing electric power (Ps) to the actuators ( 3 ) in response to a braking setpoint, each controller ( 8 ) being associated with some of the actuators of any given brake, the architecture being characterized in that each controller ( 8 ) has an input (Ev) for receiving information about the rotary speed of the wheel ( 1 ) braked by the actuators associated with said controller, the controller including processor means ( 13 ) for modulating the power transmitted to the actuators as a function of the speed of rotation of the wheel in order to provide anti-skid protection.

2. An architecture according to claim 1 , wherein the actuators ( 3 ) of a given brake ( 2 ) are grouped together in first and second complementary actuator groups ( 3 a , 3 b ) so that the actuators of the first group ( 3 a ) are controlled by a first controller ( 8 a ) that controls those actuators only and so that the actuators of the second group of actuators ( 3 b ) are controlled by a controller ( 8 a ) that controls those actuators only, and wherein both of the first and second controllers receive the information about the speed of rotation of the braked wheel ( 1 ).

3. An architecture according to claim 2 , wherein the first and second controllers ( 8 a , 8 b ) are both connected directly to a rotary speed sensor ( 19 ) that transmits information to them about the speed of rotation of the braked wheel ( 1 ).

4. An architecture according to claim 2 , wherein the first and second controllers ( 8 a , 8 b ) are each connected to a different rotary speed sensor of the braked wheel ( 1 ), each sensor independently transmitting information to the controller to which it is connected about the speed of rotation of the wheel ( 1 ).
