Abstract

A system for detecting jamming and/or uncontrolled movement of an aircraft control surface includes first means for estimating the value of at least one parameter of an equation simulating the feedback loop dynamic of the control surface, according to a recursive autoregressive method with exogenous variable of RARX type in a recursive least squares way, and second means for detecting jamming and/or uncontrolled movement of the control surface, according to the estimated parameter value by the application of a decision test in the parametric space.
