  • Publication number: 20210309192
    Abstract: A steering control system for a commercial vehicle having a braking system to brake dissymetrically side wheels. The steering control system, including a sensor unit and a control module, is configured to detect a braking request or deceleration of the vehicle and/or to detect a lateral offset and to generate a brake indication signal and/or steering demand. The control module is configured to receive the brake indication signal and/or steering demand. If the steering demand is below a predetermined threshold value, the control module is configured to generate the steering signal only if the brake indication signal indicates a braking request. If the steering demand exceeds the predetermined threshold value, the control module is configured to generate the steering signal even if the brake indication signal indicates no braking request. The control module provides the steering signal to the braking system to brake the vehicle dissymetrically to steer the vehicle.

  • Patent number: 10949552
    Abstract: An apparatus includes an authentication arrangement for a communication connection, using a communication protocol, between two data processing devices of the apparatus. The data processing devices each have an interface unit for the communication connection and a computation unit. The interface units each have an encryption/decryption device, where the encryption/decryption device is at least partially produced by hardware for encrypting at least some of the user data to be transmitted via the communication connection as part of the authentication arrangement. The encryption/decryption device can be applied in a communication layer of the communication protocol to the user data prepared for the physical user data transmission or to the physically received user data. Each data processing device has a security unit, implemented as dedicated hardware that the computation unit cannot access and/or in a manner logically isolated from the computation unit.

  • Patent number: 10773647
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and device for triggering an automatic emergency braking process in a vehicle to avoid a tail-end collision with an obstacle, wherein a warning to the driver is triggered if at least one warning condition is satisfied, wherein the satisfaction of the warning condition specifies that owing to the instantaneous driving situation of the vehicle relative to the obstacle the automatic emergency braking process should be triggered, wherein the automatic emergency braking process is not triggered until after the warning to the driver is triggered and a warning time period has subsequently expired, wherein the warning time period is set as a function of the relative movement situation between the vehicle and the obstacle and/or is adapted as a function of a relative movement, which changes over time, between the vehicle and the obstacle.
