  • Voltage regulator for aircraft generators
    Patent number: 4446417
    Abstract: A voltage regulator for aircraft generators controls generator output voltage by controlling exciter field current. Exciter field current sensors and generator output voltage sensors produce control signals which are proportional to exciter field current and generator voltage. These signals are combined and compared with a reference voltage signal by a comparator. A current controller regulates exciter field current in response to the comparator output.
