A brake control system adapted for use in a motor vehicle is disclosed, which brake control system is intended to determine, while an ACC device of the motor vehicle is active and based on environmental data obtained from one or more environmental sensors associated with the motor vehicle, a braking correction value for an emergency braking profile describing the braking behaviour of the motor vehicle. The environmental sensors are adapted to provide the brake control system with the environmental data representing the area in front of the motor vehicle. The brake control system is adapted to provide a target braking profile and to determine an actual braking profile on the basis of environmental data provided during an ACC braking operation. The brake control system is further adapted to compare the target braking profile with the actual braking profile and on the basis of the comparison result to determine the braking correction value. Finally, the brake control system is adapted to store the determined braking correction value for use in a subsequent emergency braking operation of the motor vehicle to be triggered by the brake control system.
A brake control system (30), which is adapted for use in a motor vehicle (10) and intended to determine a braking correction value for an emergency braking profile which describes the braking behaviour of the motor vehicle (10) on the basis of environmental data obtained from one or more environmental sensors (40) associated with the motor vehicle, while an ACC device of the motor vehicle is active, wherein the environmental sensors are adapted to provide the brake control system (30) with the environmental data representing the area in front of the motor vehicle, and wherein the brake control system is adapted to:
