SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROPULSOR SYNCHRONIZATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17752020 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROPULSOR SYNCHRONIZATION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a system for synchronizing the propulsors of an electric aircraft using electronic brakes.

  • The system includes a controller located in the aircraft that receives signals from multiple propulsor sensors.
  • The propulsor sensors measure motion parameters of the propulsors.
  • The controller synchronously decelerates the propulsors based on the measured motion parameters.


Original Abstract Submitted

A system for propulsor synchronization using electronic brakes is disclosed. The system includes a controller located in an electric aircraft configured to receive a first signal from a first propulsor sensor of a plurality of propulsor sensors, the first propulsor sensor configured to measure a first motion parameter of a first propulsor of a plurality of propulsors. The controller may receive a second signal from a second propulsor sensor of the plurality of propulsor sensors, the second propulsor sensor configured to measure a second motion parameter of a second propulsor of the plurality of propulsors. The controller may synchronously decelerate the first propulsor and the second propulsor based on the first motion parameter and the second motion parameter.
