Abstract:
Method for use in an automotive vehicle brake system with electronic braking pressure control, for controlling the braking pressure increase during a controlled braking operation, wherein the rotational behavior of the individual vehicle wheels is measured and evaluated to determine braking pressure control signals, and wherein during a braking pressure control operation the braking pressure reduction in the previous cycle is taken into account for the control of the braking pressure increase or reincrease, comprising the step of:calculating a braking pressure rise gradient on the basis of the braking pressure increase in the previous braking pressure increase phase, in that the braking pressure increase and the variation of the braking pressure increase is calculated and predetermined on the basis of the braking pressure rise gradient, the wheel cylinder pressure at the commencement of the current braking pressure increase phase, and on the basis of the current locking pressure level.
