First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for detecting a critical snaking motion of a trailer of a vehicle combination, comprising:
- ascertaining a setpoint yaw rate of the trailer from a transverse acceleration of the trailer and a longitudinal speed of the vehicle combination;
ascertaining an actual yaw rate of the trailer using a yaw rate sensor; and
ascertaining a presence of the critical snaking motion of the trailer by comparing a curve over time of the setpoint yaw rate and a curve over time of the actual yaw rate.

Abstract
A method is provided for the detection of a critical snaking motion of a trailer of a vehicle combination, in which a setpoint yaw rate of the trailer is ascertained from the transverse acceleration of the trailer and the longitudinal speed of the vehicle combination, the actual yaw rate of the trailer is ascertained using a yaw rate sensor, and by a comparison of the curve over time of the setpoint yaw rate and the actual yaw rate, the presence of a critical snaking motion of the trailer is ascertained.
