Brake apparatus of vehicle and method thereof
First Claim
1. A brake apparatus of a vehicle comprising:
- a detector configured to detect driving information including an operation status of a brake pedal, a vehicle speed, and a vehicle deceleration;
an anti-lock braking system (ABS) configured to control a braking force supplied to wheels of the vehicle by detecting slip generated at the wheels; and
a controller configured to determine a braking status of the vehicle from the operation status of the brake pedal detected by the detector, the vehicle speed, and the vehicle deceleration, and configured to selectively perform ABS control or pitch motion control for reducing a pitch motion of the vehicle according to the braking status of the vehicle,wherein the controller is configured to perform the pitch motion control when the vehicle deceleration detected by the detector is greater than a predetermined deceleration, and a pitch coefficient determined by the vehicle speed and a variation of the vehicle deceleration is greater than a first predetermined value.

4. A braking method of a vehicle, comprising:
- determining, by a detector, driving information including a vehicle speed, and a vehicle deceleration;
determining, by a controller, whether the vehicle brakes; determining, by the controller, whether the vehicle quickly brakes; determining, by the controller, a pitch coefficient from the vehicle speed and the vehicle deceleration; determining, by the controller, whether the vehicle quickly brakes and whether the pitch coefficient is greater than a predetermined value; and performing, by the controller, pitch motion control in which a predetermined braking force is supplied to the wheel for a predetermined time and the braking force is increased step-by-step when the vehicle quickly brakes and when the pitch coefficient is greater than the predetermined value, wherein the controller is configured to perform the pitch motion control when the vehicle deceleration detected by the detector is greater than a predetermined deceleration, and the pitch coefficient determined by the vehicle speed and a variation of the vehicle deceleration is greater than a first predetermined value. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6, 7)
