antiskid brake system
An electrohydraulic system in an airplane’s power brake system that senses the deceleration rate of every main landing gear wheel. If any wheel decelerates too rapidly, indicating an impending skid, pressure to that bake is released and the wheel stops decelerating. Pressure is then reapplied at a slightly lower value.
