Abstract: A method of providing an additive offset of a longitudinal acceleration signal of a traveling motor vehicle. The signal being measured by an inertial sensor is ascertained. At least the longitudinal acceleration signal, a braking signal, and a drive signal are detected. A force balance of the longitudinal dynamic of the motor vehicle is analyzed. The signals are detected both during at least one acceleration process as well as during at least one braking process. The signals during the acceleration processes are detected and/or analyzed separately from the signals during the braking processes, and the additive offset is ascertained by comparing the signals detected during the acceleration processes or the values calculated therefrom with the signals detected during the braking processes or the values calculated therefrom. The invention further relates to an electronic controller.

Abstract: A method for determining a vehicle reference speed and a vehicle controller having such a method, in which directly or indirectly determined or estimated vehicle status signals, including weighting factors associated with each of the vehicle status signals, are merged in a merging module, wherein the merging module includes at least two stochastic estimators, which exchange signals with one another that correspond to physical vehicle parameters, wherein the association of the estimators is selected in accordance with a physics model for the vehicle behavior.
