Abstract: A driving speed of a vehicle is limited when driving around a bend. A course of a curve of a route portion lying ahead of the vehicle is determined using a digital map. Depending on the course of the curve and on physical load limits of the vehicle, a course of a permissible bend speed is determined. The vehicle is controlled such that the determined permissible bend speeds are not exceeded when driving around the bend. By evaluating the course of the curve, a route portion, in which the curve is greater than a pre-determined curve limit value, is identified as a bend portion. Local curve maxima are identified in the identified bend portion. A permissible bend speed is determined for each local curve maximum depending on the curve and on a permissible lateral acceleration.

Abstract: In a motor vehicle drive device, in particular a motor vehicle hybrid drive device, including an open-loop and/or closed-loop control unit, which is provided for controlling an energy store service unit for charging and/or discharging an energy store unit as a function of travel information items which are made available by a data assistance system, the control unit is adapted, in at least one operating state, to predictively calculate at least one state of charge (SOC) operating point of the energy store unit with an SOC derivative action as a function of the travel information items.

Abstract: A vehicle data bus system includes locating means which comprise a locating computing unit and a locating sensor system which contains at least one GPS receiver with associated GPS antenna and gyro data acquisition means, and a data bus via which connects a plurality of bus users in data communication with one another. The locating means contain a locating module which is embodied as one of the bus users and is configured to receive at least wheel speed data and forward/backward direction of travel data via the data bus, to acquire at least vehicle position data, direction of travel angle data, travel speed data and altitude position data as well as to output this acquired data onto the data bus. For this purpose, the locating module contains the location computing unit, the GPS receiver and a gyroscope or means for the bus-end reception and evaluation of gyro data of a travel dynamics/traction control system.
