Abstract
A method of controlling an automated motor vehicle transmission. A current driving resistance is taken into account when selecting a target gear to be engaged as part of a shifting process. In order to be able to regulate shifting processes in a driving-resistance-dependent manner so as to ensure that the motor vehicle can always able to continue driving on, during selection of the target gear, disregarding gears for shifting from a currently engaged gear, in a driving-resistance-dependent manner, when the required associated shifting times are longer than a respective permitted maximum shifting time. In connection with the above, the method is incorporated in an automated motor vehicle transmission, a computer program product and a data carrier, containing the computer program product.

11. A method of controlling an automated motor vehicle transmission (1), the method comprising the steps of:
-
taking into account a current driving resistance when selecting a target gear (Greg, G′
) to be engaged as part of a shifting process, andduring selecting the target gear (Greg, G′
) to be engaged, disregarding, in a driving resistance-dependent manner, gears for shifting from a currently engaged gear with shifting times (tG reg) that are longer than a respective permitted maximum shifting time (tzul(α

19. A computer program for of an automated motor vehicle transmission (1) which is operated in accordance with a method of controlling an automated motor vehicle transmission (1), the method comprising the steps of:
- taking into account a current driving resistance when selecting a target gear (Greg, G′
) to be engaged as part of a shifting process, and during selecting the target gear (Greg, G′
) to be engaged, disregarding, in a driving resistance-dependent manner, gears for shifting from a currently engaged gear with shifting times (tG.reg) that are longer than a respective permitted maximum shifting time (tzul(α
, m));wherein a routine for carrying out a gearshift in the automated motor vehicle transmission (1) is implemented by corresponding control commands stored in a software system. - View Dependent Claims (20)

21. A method of controlling an automated transmission of a motor vehicle, the method comprising the steps of:
-
initiating a gearshift from a currently engaged gear to a target gear; determining a current driving resistance of the motor vehicle; considering, from possible targets gears to be selected, at least one potential target gear; removing the potential target gear from consideration as the target gear, if, based on the current driving resistance, a required amount of time to shift from the currently engaged gear to the potential target gear exceeds a respective permitted maximum shifting time; and selecting the considered potential target gear as the target gear for the gearshift.
