Abstract:
1. A method of controlling a vehicle brake that is adapted to exert a braking force in response to an actuation setpoint, the method comprising the steps of: only on the basis of a braking setpoint, determining a nominal actuation setpoint for the brake actuator, taking account of both low frequency components and high frequency components of the braking setpoint; only on the basis of the same braking setpoint, and of a measurement of the torque developed by the brake, determining independently from determining the nominal actuation setpoint a correction for the nominal actuation setpoint, the correction taking account of low frequency variations in the braking setpoint without taking account of high frequency variations in the braking setpoint; the correction being adapted to take account of the actual or future operating conditions of at least said brake or of the brakes that are subjected to the same braking setpoint; and adding, after determining the nominal actuation setpoint and the correction, the correction to the nominal actuation setpoint in order to obtain a corrected actuation setpoint.
