Abstract: Generating a steering wheel torque (ML) on a steering wheel in a vehicle steering system as a tactile feedback. A value for a rack force (FZ) may be obtained, and at least a component (MZ) of an actuator-generated target steering wheel torque (MS) utilizing a characteristic curve (K1) that defines the steering wheel torque (MS) as a function of the rack force (FZ). A steering wheel torque (ML) is generated on the basis of the target steering wheel torque (MS) using an actuator mechanically connected to the steering wheel. A steering system for a vehicle, and a control unit for such a steering system may be configured to perform the functions disclosed herein.

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.
