Method and system for controlling the braking force in a vehicle
First Claim
1. A method of controlling the braking force in a vehicle comprising the following steps:
- determining actual values of controlled variables, determining setpoint values of controlled variables, comparing the actual values with the setpoint values, thereby obtaining comparison results, and influencing wheel forces on the basis of the comparison results, wherein wheel forces are used as controlled variables, the actual values of the wheel forces are determined by a sensor system (10) which measures the wheel force, torques having a modulation frequency are generated at the wheels, thereby enabling the slip of the wheels (20) and the wheel force at the wheels (20) are modifiable, the slip of the wheels (20) and the wheel forces of the wheels (20) are analyzed, and the setpoint values of the wheel forces are determined from the analysis of the slip of the wheels (20) and from the wheel forces of the wheels (20).

Abstract
A method of controlling the braking force in a vehicle has the following steps: determining actual values of controlled variables; determining setpoint values of controlled variables; comparing the actual values with the setpoint values, thereby obtaining comparison results; and influencing wheel forces on the basis of the comparison results, wheel forces being used as controlled variables, the actual values of the wheel forces being determined by a sensor system which measures the wheel force, torques having a modulation frequency being generated at the wheels, whereby the slip of the wheels and the wheel force of the wheels are modifiable, the slip of the wheels and the wheel forces of the wheels are analyzed, and the setpoint values of the wheel forces are determined from the analysis of the slip of the wheels and the wheel forces of the wheels. A system for controlling the braking force in a vehicle is also described.
