Abstract:
Method of detecting braking of a vehicle during cornering on a road surface where the coefficient of friction of the road surface on a wheel on the outside of a curve is lower than on a wheel on the inside of the curve, comprising the steps of:A. sensing a brake pressure in a brake of at least one left wheel and at least one right wheel, B. determining at least one wheel on an outside of a curve and at least one wheel on an inside of the curve, C. comparing a signal representative of a brake force of the at least one wheel on the outside of the curve with a signal representative of a brake force of the at least one wheel on the inside of the curve, D. generating a detection signal when the brake force of at least one wheel on the outside of a curve is lower than the brake force of at least one wheel on the inside of the curve, the at least one wheel on the inside of the curve being on a same axle as the at least one wheel on the outside of the curve, and E. reducing the brake force in the brake of only the at least one wheel on the inside of a curve that is on the same axle as the at least one wheel on the outside of the curve in response to the detection signal.
