Abstract
A steer-by-wire steering system for a vehicle is described, with a driver-operable control element for steering angle input, an actuating mechanism for setting a wheel setting angle, and with a control unit which is configured, on the basis of a steering angle of the control element and a vehicle speed, to output a map for the setpoint of a position of the actuating mechanism. A defined maximum steering angle is assigned to a maximum wheel setting angle. A method is also described for producing a map for the setpoint of a position of the actuating mechanism in a steer-by-wire steering system.

A steer-by-wire steering system for a vehicle, comprising a driver-operable control element for steering angle input, an actuating mechanism for setting a wheel setting angle, and a control unit which is configured, based on a steering angle of the control element and a vehicle speed, to output a map for a setpoint of a position of the actuating mechanism, wherein a defined maximum steering angle is assigned to a maximum wheel setting angle.
A method for producing a map for a setpoint of a position of an actuating mechanism in a steer-by-wire steering system for a vehicle, comprising adapting the map by operation of a control unit based on using a steering angle and a vehicle speed, such that a defined maximum steering angle is assigned to a defined maximum wheel setting angle.
