Abstract: A method is provided for operating an actuator of a steer-by-wire steering system of a motor vehicle in a speed range from standstill to parking and/or maneuvering. In one example, the method includes detecting an instantaneous speed of the motor vehicle, determining a limited steering angle as a function of at least the instantaneous speed, detecting a steering angle demand, and activating an actuator for setting a steering angle of at least one wheel, at least as a function of the steering angle demand and having regard to the limited steering angle.

Abstract: A method is provided for operating an actuator of a steer-by-wire steering system of a motor vehicle at speeds from a standstill up to parking and/or maneuvering speeds. The method includes detecting an instantaneous steering angle of at least one wheel on an axle of the motor vehicle, detecting a steering angle demand, determining a limit value of an acceleration of a drive mechanism of the actuator at least as a function of the instantaneous steering angle, and activating the actuator for setting a steering angle of at least one wheel as a function of the steering angle demand and using the limit value of the acceleration.
