  • Method for controlling the braking system of a motor vehicle
    Publication number: 20060220452
    Abstract: A method is used to control a brake system (1) including an electrically controllable generator (4) and a number of friction brakes (2) in such a fashion that high braking comfort can be achieved by means of the brake system (1). To this end, the total deceleration consists of a parallel configuration of deceleration components of the friction brakes (2) and the generator (4), the nominal brake torque of the generator (4) is determined by way of determining a total nominal deceleration and the generator (4) is controlled by means of this nominal brake torque.
