Motor vehicle having an automated transmission
First Claim
1. A method for shift control in a motor vehicle when starting off or under way, the method comprising the steps of:
- continuously performing computer simulations of the future driving of the vehicle, at least in response to information on road incline and throttle opening position, for a set of different shift schedules comprising combinations of engine speeds when shifting and shift steps; and
selecting a shift schedule from said set of shift schedules which is optimal with regard to a selected criterion.

Abstract
A motor vehicle includes a clutch and an automated transmission between the engine and the drive wheels of the vehicle. A method for shift control in the motor vehicle when starting off or under way includes continuously performing computer simulations of the future driving of the vehicle, at least in response to information on road incline and throttle opening position, for a set of different shift schedules with combinations of engine speeds when shifting and shift steps, and selecting a shift schedule from the set of shift schedules which is optimal with regard to a selected criterion.
