Abstract
A method for a brake controller is for operating an electric drive of a trailer vehicle. The trailer vehicle has a drive controller for controlling the electric drive and is configured to be communicatively connected to a tractor vehicle. A drive slip control signal is received by a tractor vehicle controller and a drive signal is determined depending on the drive slip control signal. The drive signal is emitted to the drive controller for operating the electric drive.

A method for a brake controller for operating an electric drive of a trailer vehicle, wherein the trailer vehicle has a drive controller for controlling the electric drive and is configured to be communicatively connected to a tractor vehicle, the method comprising:
- receiving a traction control signal from a tractor vehicle controller;
- determining a drive signal depending on the traction control signal;
- and,
- outputting the drive signal to the drive controller for operating the electric drive.
A brake controller of a trailer vehicle, wherein the trailer vehicle has a drive controller for controlling an electric drive and is configured to be communicatively connected to a tractor vehicle, the brake controller comprising:
- a processor;
- a non-transitory computer readable storage medium having program code stored thereon;
- said program code being configured, when executed by said processor, to:
- receive a traction control signal from a tractor vehicle controller;
- determine a drive signal depending on the traction control signal;
- and,
- output the drive signal to the drive controller for operating the electric drive.
A trailer vehicle comprising:
- an electric drive;
- a drive controller for controlling said electric drive;
- a brake controller including a processor and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium having program code stored thereon;
- said program code being configured, when executed by said processor, to:
- receive a traction control signal from a tractor vehicle controller;
- determine a drive signal depending on the traction control signal;
- output the drive signal to the drive controller for operating the electric drive;
- and,
- wherein the trailer vehicle is configured to be communicatively connected to a tractor vehicle.
