Abstract: A method for compensating sensor tolerances of accelerometers of a vehicle. The method includes following steps: recording of measurement signals of at least three similarly oriented accelerometers, calculation of an acceleration (ab,z) at a reference position in the spatial direction, which corresponds to the orientation of the accelerometers, low-pass filtering of the measurement signals, determination of tolerance parameters (cx, cy, cz) of each sensor via an optimization method with the aid of the calculated acceleration (ab,z) at the reference position, and calculation of the adjusted measurement signals from the recorded measurement signals and the tolerance parameters (cx, cy, cz).

Abstract: A method for level control of a motor vehicle, in which a target value for a floor level of the motor vehicle is calculated from a driving speed and a longitudinal acceleration and/or a lateral acceleration of the motor vehicle. With the aid of an active chassis, a target value for a lower floor level is provided at a higher longitudinal acceleration and/or lateral acceleration and a target value for a higher floor level is provided at a lower longitudinal acceleration and/or lateral acceleration. Dynamically adjusting the floor level to different acceleration situations of the motor vehicle enables a motor vehicle with a high level of driving safety and good driving comfort.

Abstract: A method for controlling a chassis of a vehicle includes the steps of: detecting a vertical wheel acceleration of a wheel of the vehicle, detecting a vertical body acceleration of a body of the vehicle, determining a crest-dip indication by comparing the vertical wheel acceleration and the vertical body acceleration, and controlling the chassis on the basis of the crest-dip indication. The crest-dip indication indicates whether or not the vehicle is currently driving over a crest (K) or a dip (S). A system for controlling a chassis of a vehicle includes a wheel acceleration sensor for detecting a vertical wheel acceleration of a wheel of the vehicle, a body acceleration sensor for detecting a vertical body acceleration of a body of the vehicle, and a control unit.

Abstract: A method for operating an active roll support system of a motor vehicle, in which a roll moment distribution is regulated below a sideslip angle threshold on the basis of an actual grip reserve of a rear axle relative to a front axle of the motor vehicle. A wheel load is acquired for each of the wheels of the front axle and for each of the wheels of the rear axle and the acquired wheel loads are used as feedback variables in a control loop for regulating the roll moment distribution to calculate the actual grip reserve of the rear axle and compare it with a target grip reserve of the rear axle and from this determine a control deviation for adapting the roll moment distribution.

Abstract: Method for adjusting the damping force of shock absorbers connected between a vehicle body and a wheel at vehicle corners of a motor vehicle, wherein at least one damping force (FLIFT, FPITCH, FROLL) which is referred to a center of gravity of the vehicle body and is divided between axles of the vehicle and between the shock absorbers of the axles is determined as a function of at least one variable which represents a movement of the vehicle body and/or a movement of the respective wheel. For at least one of the damping forces which are referred to the center of gravity of the vehicle body, at least one division factor for the division of the damping forces is calculated between a front axle and a rear axle, and the division of the respective damping force (FLIFT, FPITCH, FROLL) is adapted on the basis of this division factor.
