Systems and methods for landing identification
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a monostable multivibrator in electrical communication with a metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) and a wheel angular displacement circuit;
a resistor-capacitor network in electrical communication with the MOSFET; and
a comparator that receives a voltage from the resistor-capacitor network and a reference voltage,wherein the monostable multivibrator is configured to set a time period in response to receiving a conditioned angular displacement signal,wherein the wheel angular displacement circuit changes state in response to angular displacement above a displacement threshold over the first time period,wherein the comparator compares the reference voltage to a voltage output of the resistor-capacitor network, andwherein a voting scheme determines a likelihood of a landing event based upon the comparison.

Abstract
Systems and methods disclosed herein may be useful for use in landing identification. In this regard, a method is provided comprising receiving pulse information over a first time period, wherein the pulse information is indicative of an angular distance traveled by a first wheel, comparing the pulse information to a threshold value, and determining a likelihood of a landing event based upon the comparison. In various embodiments, a system is provided comprising a monostable multivibrator in electrical communication with a metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), a resistor-capacitor network in electrical communication with the MOSFET, and a comparator that receives a voltage from the resistor-capacitor network and a reference voltage.
