Estimating the term…
The invention relates to a method of managing a steering command for a steerable portion 3 of nose landing gear 2 of an aircraft 1, the method implementing servo-control to servo-control a steering actuator 6 to an angle position setpoint θset for the steerable portion 3, the servo-control including calculating an error ε by subtracting a reference angle θest from the angle position setpoint θset. According to the invention, the reference angle θest is an angle determined by calculation as a function of a longitudinal speed Vlong and a yaw rate τ of the aircraft 1.
A method of managing a steering command for a steerable portion (3) of nose landing gear (2) of an aircraft (1), the method implementing servo-control to servo-control a steering actuator (6) to an angle position setpoint (θset) for the steerable portion (3), the servo-control including calculating an error (ε) by subtracting a reference angle (θest) from the angle position setpoint (θset), the method being characterized in that the reference angle (θest) is an angle determined by calculation as a function of a longitudinal speed (Vlong) and a yaw rate (τ) of the aircraft (1).
