  • METHOD FOR CARRYING OUT CONTROL PROCEDURES IN A VEHICLE
    Publication number: 20230347917
    Abstract: In a method for carrying out control procedures in a vehicle, a criticality indicator is calculated from various stability indicators. The criticality indicator is fed to at least two different controllers or at least two different sub-controllers of a controller of the vehicle in order for controller parameters to be established.

  • Temporary compensation of undesired deceleration due to braking interventions by ESP functions
    Patent number: 9321459
    Abstract: A method for compensating for the change in longitudinal dynamics variables in a motor vehicle brought about by a braking intervention of an electronic stability program (ESP) includes: identifying the change in longitudinal dynamics variables; defining a filter to filter the identified value of the change in longitudinal dynamics variables; filtering the identified value of the change using the defined filter, in order to obtain a filtered value; identifying the difference between the identified raw value and the filtered value of the change in longitudinal dynamics variables; modifying the engine torque that is requested by the driver and is acting on the drive wheels of the motor vehicle, by an amount equal to the identified difference value, in order to obtain a compensating engine torque.
