The invention provides an ABS and/or ASC control system for motor vehicles, of the type having a sensor arrangement for detecting rotational wheel speeds, an analysis unit for the cornering recognition, and actuators for reducing the brake pressure on at least one wheel which is on the inside during the cornering in the case of a cornering recognition and an operated brake such that an ABS control is initiated on at the most one wheel. Cornering recognition is carried out by calculating an actual value proportional to the rear axle lateral acceleration from the difference of the rotational wheel speeds of the rear wheels and/or an actual value proportional to the front axle lateral acceleration from the difference of the rotational speeds of the front wheels. A reduction of brake pressure on at least on one inside wheel is cancelled if otherwise, because of a braking force increased by the driver on the inside front wheel, the ABS control would be switched on or the deceleration of the inside rear wheel exceeds a given threshold.
A braking control system for motor vehicles, of the type having a sensor arrangement for detecting rotational wheel speeds, an analysis unit for cornering recognition, and actuators for reducing brake pressure on at least one wheel which is on an inside of said vehicle during a cornering in the case of a cornering recognition and an operated brake, such that an ABS control is initiated on at the most one wheel, wherein:
A braking control system for a motor vehicle, comprising:
Method of operating a vehicle braking system of the type having sensors for determining rotational speeds of wheels of said vehicle and means for modifying application of brake pressure to at least one wheel of said vehicle:
