Abstract: A method for operating a braking system, having a front and rear axle, the braking system including: a brake booster having a brake input element, coupled to an actuating travel sensor for providing a signal of a braking input; a brake master cylinder coupled to the brake booster coupled to a brake medium reservoir; fluid lines, in fluidic communication with the brake master cylinder and the brake medium reservoir, and with braking devices of the wheels via a system of valves, each of the wheels being coupled to a generator generating a braking torque, the method including: generating a hydraulic free travel with the valves and controlling valves with a control unit, a hydraulic pressure build-up for decelerating a wheel speed being prevented by generating free travel during actuation of the brake input element; and generating a regenerative braking torque for decelerating the wheel speed, based on the braking input.

Abstract: A monitoring device for, and a method for examining a functional capability of, at least one subunit of a hydraulic braking system includes: ascertaining at least one pressure variable of a pressure prevailing in the hydraulic braking system, and comparing the ascertained pressure variable to a predefined comparative value range, at least if the ascertained pressure variable deviates from the predefined comparative value range, a pressure change variable with respect to a time change of the pressure variable being ascertained and the ascertained pressure change variable being compared to a predefined minimum change variable, and the functional capability being established in consideration of the comparison of the pressure variable to the predefined comparative value range, and, at least if the ascertained pressure variable deviates from the predefined comparative value range, in consideration of the comparison of the pressure change variable to the predefined minimum change variable.
