Abstract: A method is for influencing and/or operating a steering system, in particular a steer-by-wire steering system. In the method, a setpoint for an operating element actuator is determined independently of a setpoint for a steering gear actuator, and the operating element actuator is actuated depending on the setpoint for the operating element actuator. The setpoint for the steering gear actuator of the steering system is determined independently of the setpoint for the operating element actuator, and the steering gear actuator is actuated depending on the setpoint for the steering gear actuator. The setpoint for the operating element actuator is determined depending on a target value for a behavior of an operating element and depending on a first request value. The setpoint for the steering gear actuator is determined depending on a target value for a behavior of the steering gear actuator and depending on a second request value.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is for influencing a vehicle behavior of a vehicle in which a setpoint for a steering wheel actuator of a steering system, in particular of a steer-by-wire steering system, is determined independently of a setpoint for a wheel steering gear actuator, and the steering wheel actuator is actuated depending on the setpoint for the steering wheel actuator. The method further includes determining a setpoint for a wheel steering gear actuator of the steering system independently of the setpoint for the steering wheel actuator, and the wheel steering gear actuator is actuated depending on the setpoint for the wheel steering gear actuator. The setpoint for the steering wheel actuator is determined depending on a target value for influencing the steering wheel actuator.

Abstract: A technique for determining and compensating for a dead time of at least one actuator for lateral guidance or longitudinal guidance of a motor vehicle includes a device including at least one sensor or at least one sensor interface for detecting at least one actual value of a state of motion of the lateral guidance or longitudinal guidance. A unit of determination of the device is configured to determine the dead time of at least one actuator by comparing at least one target value of the state of motion calculated from a dynamic model with the recorded at least one actual value. A control unit of the device is configured to control the actuator depending on the detected state of motion and the certain dead time of at least one actuator, wherein the control unit outputs time-preceding control signals to the actuator around the dead time.
