Abstract: A method for operating a steering system of a vehicle, wherein an actuator is provided for generating a moment at a steering handle of the vehicle, wherein the following steps are carried out: generating the moment up to a maximum moment if the maximum moment is enabled, and up to a lower limited moment if the maximum moment is limited, identifying a vehicle situation of the vehicle, enabling the maximum moment if the vehicle situation is identified as being a boarding and/or deboarding situation in order to brace the steering handle, and limiting the maximum moment if the vehicle situation is identified as being driving operation of the vehicle.

Abstract: A control unit and a method for determining a steering reference state for a vehicle. A first wheel speed value that is a wheel speed value for a wheel on the vehicle is obtained. At least one second wheel speed value that is a wheel speed value for another wheel on the vehicle is obtained. Using the first and second wheel speed value, a steering reference state is determined, corresponding to travel in a straight line by the vehicle.

Abstract: A steer-by-wire steering system having a steering control, a rotation angle sensor for detecting a position of the steering control, an actuator for producing a counter-torque on the steering control, a steering actuator for adjusting a steering angle depending on the data of the rotation angle sensor on a final control element, wherein the final control element has a mechanical end stop and the actuator implements a software end stop on the steering control, wherein a transmission ratio is set between the rotation angle on the steering control and the steering angle, wherein a positive delta value and a negative delta value are defined for the set transmission ratio, wherein the steer-by-wire steering system is embodied so the adjusted transmission ratio is selected so that a remaining position error of the steering control is minimized.
