Method and control device for controlling a differential gear of a vehicle

Abstract

A method for controlling a differential gear of a vehicle having articulated steering includes reading in (S1a) temporally successive steering angles of the articulated steering, determining (S2) a steering angle change based on the read-in steering angles, and setting (S3) a wheel speed correction value for a wheel of the vehicle based on the determined steering angle change. The method further comprises determining (S5) a corrected wheel speed of the wheel by applying (S4) the set wheel speed correction value to a wheel speed of the wheel, and outputting (S6) a control command to the differential gear to change an operating state of the differential gear based on the determined corrected wheel speed. A control device for controlling a differential gear of a vehicle having articulated steering can be configured to perform the method. A vehicle can include such a control device.
