Abstract
In a method and a device for regulating the speed of a vehicle including an object detection system in the sense of an adaptive distance and speed control system, the adaptive distance and speed control system includes at least two operating modes. In the first operating mode, a vehicle speed between standstill and a limiting speed is set, and in the second operating mode, a vehicle speed between a limiting speed and a maximally regulable speed is set. In the first operating mode, in the absence of a speed-limiting object, the vehicle speed is increased beyond the limiting speed and thereafter is set to the limiting speed.

7. A method for regulating a speed of a vehicle, the vehicle including an object detection system arranged as an adaptive distance and speed control system having at least two operating modes, a vehicle speed settable between a standstill and a limiting speed in a first operating mode, the vehicle speed settable between the limiting speed and a maximum regulable speed in a second operating mode, comprising:
-
increasing the vehicle speed in the first operating mode beyond the limiting speed in accordance with an absence of a speed-limiting object; and
after the increasing step, setting the vehicle speed to the limiting speed. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10)

11. A device for regulating a speed of a vehicle, comprising:
-
a detection device configured to detect objects in front of the vehicle; and
an adaptive distance and speed control system including at least two operating modes, the adaptive distance and speed control system configured to set a vehicle speed between a standstill and a limiting speed in a first operating mode and to set the vehicle speed between the limiting speed and a maximum regulable speed in a second operating mode, the adaptive distance and speed control system including a calculation device configured to determine a vehicle speed to be set, the adaptive distance and speed control system configured to increase the vehicle speed, in the first operating mode and in accordance with an absence of a speed-limiting object, beyond the limiting speed and to then set the vehicle speed to the limiting speed. - View Dependent Claims (12)
