Abstract
In an embodiment a method for complementing a braking force of a vehicle includes determining that a braking complement condition of the vehicle is satisfied, driving an air suspension to control a tire to be in contact with a ground surface, determining whether a pressure of an air tank of a braking complement system is smaller than a reference pressure, and, in response to determining that the pressure of the air tank of the braking complement system is smaller than the reference pressure, driving a compressor of the braking complement system through a driving unit.

A method for complementing a braking force of a vehicle, the method comprising:
- determining that a braking complement condition of the vehicle is satisfied;
- driving an air suspension to control a tire to be in contact with a ground surface;
- determining whether a pressure of an air tank of a braking complement system is smaller than a reference pressure;
- and
- in response to determining that the pressure of the air tank of the braking complement system is smaller than the reference pressure, driving a compressor of the braking complement system through a driving unit.
A method for complementing a braking force of a vehicle, the method comprising:
- determining, by a controller of the vehicle, a braking complement condition of the vehicle;
- driving a braking complement system of the vehicle based on the braking complement condition, wherein the braking complement system is connected to a driving unit and configured to complement the braking force;
- and
- controlling, via a bypass valve disposed at a discharge end of a compressor of the braking complement system, a fluid connection with both a fuel cell system and a braking complement unit of the braking complement system at different times.
