Control system for a vehicle
First Claim
1. A control system for a vehicle having an electronically actuated drive train, said control system comprising:
- a coordination level which is assigned to a system control device and in which setpoint values are generated from state variables of the vehicle and from driver'"'"'s requests, and actuation signals for actuating actuators are generated based on the setpoint signals; and
an execution level which is subordinate to the coordination level and which has actuators for executing the actuation signals;
wherein,an axle electronic module for activating at least one brake actuator assigned to the chassis is arranged in proximity to a steerable vehicle axle;
the axle electronic module is connected to the coordination level to receive setpoint values, and determines actuation signals for actuating respective axle actuators based on the setpoint values and input from one or more sensors which sense the vehicle'"'"'s dynamic state;
the axle electronic module is connected to an electronically actuated steering system for transmitting the actuation signals;
the steering system comprises a steer-by-wire steering system and operates with a steering algorithm that can be modified as a function of the actuation signals; and
an axle control device which is assigned to the execution level, is arranged in the region of the steerable vehicle axle, and contains the axle electronic module.

Abstract
A control system for a vehicle having an electronically actuated drive train includes a coordination level which is assigned to a system control device, and in which setpoint values are generated from state variables (ZG) of the vehicle and from driver'"'"'s requests. Actuation signals for actuating actuators are generated from the latter. An execution level, which is subordinate to the coordination level, has actuators for executing the actuation signals. An axle electronic module for activating at least one brake actuator which is assigned to the chassis is arranged in the region of the steerable vehicle axle. The axle electronic module is connected to the coordination level in order to receive transmittal setpoint values, and determines actuation signals for actuating the respective axle actuator from the setpoint values. The axle electronic module is connected to an electronically actuated steering system for transmitting the actuation signals.
