  • Method and device for controlling an electrically actuable brake and an electronic brake system
    Patent number: 8606477
    Abstract: A method for controlling an electrically actuated brake including determining an actuator clamping force actual value (Fist), using a force sensor and determining an actuator position actual value (?ist) or an actuator speed actual value (nist) using a position sensor for activating the actuator by a controller. The controller includes a selection and evaluation device. The selection and evaluation device supplies to the controller input reference value (?in-soll) and a controller input actual value (?in-ist). The controller input variables (?in-soll, ?in-ist) are made available by the selection and evaluation device such that the controller can be operated in at least two control modes. The control modes include a force control (M1) for adjusting an actuator clamping force reference value (Fsoll), or position control (M3, M4) for adjusting an actuator position reference value (?soll, ??soll), or speed control (M2) for adjusting an actuator speed reference value (nsoll).
