How does anti-skid work?

How does anti-skid work?

Antiskid has a detection system that senses the moment a wheel stops rotating.

Once it senses that the wheel is not rotating, the antiskid system releases brake pressure. This allows the wheel to regain traction with the surface, so that break application can be resumed and prevents complete loss of controllability.
