Abstract
Disclosed is a method for detecting longitudinal and lateral acceleration of a vehicle, in which at least two sensors determine acceleration components that are aligned in a substantially perpendicular manner in relation to each other. The method is characterized in that the acceleration components have an angle ranging between 10° and 80° relative to the direction of longitudinal movement of the vehicle.
Claims7
A method for detecting longitudinal and lateral acceleration of a vehicle, in which at least two sensors determine acceleration components that are aligned in a substantially perpendicular manner in relation to each other,
- characterized in that the acceleration components have an angle ranging between 10° and 80° relative to the direction of longitudinal movement of the vehicle.
A method for controlling a steering movement of a vehicle wherein a lateral acceleration of the vehicle is determined and the steering movement is controlled depending on the lateral acceleration,
- characterized in that the lateral acceleration is determined by taking into consideration acceleration components, with the acceleration components having an angle ranging between 10° and 80° in relation to the direction of longitudinal movement of the vehicle.
A method for preventing a vehicle at standstill from rolling away inadvertently, in which a brake pressure is maintained in wheel brake cylinders as a roll-away prevention and in which a speed of the vehicle is detected,
- characterized in that the brake force is controlled depending on a longitudinal acceleration of the vehicle and in that the longitudinal acceleration is determined taking into consideration acceleration components, with the acceleration components having an angle ranging between 10° and 80° in relation to the direction of longitudinal movement of the vehicle.
A device for detecting a longitudinal and a lateral acceleration of a vehicle including at least two sensors that are aligned in a substantially perpendicular manner in relation to each other, and an evaluation unit,
- characterized in that the sensors are so aligned that their sensing direction has an angle ranging between 10° and 80° relative to the direction of longitudinal movement of the vehicle.
