1. In a vehicle including a plurality of active chassis systems, a method of determining a role of each active chassis system in applying at least one corrective input to the vehicle, said method comprising:
- determining at least one control influence coefficient and a control authority for each active chassis system; and
determining an activation status of each active chassis system based, at least partially, on each determined control influence coefficient and each determined control authority.

Abstract
In an unified control of a plurality of active chassis systems a role of each chassis system in applying a corrective net force and a corrective moment to a vehicle is determined. In determining the roles, control influence coefficients and a control authority of each active chassis system is determined. An activation status of each active chassis system based on the control influence coefficients and the control authority is subsequently determined.
