Abstract:
A vehicle braking system, comprising:braking system electronics and travel dynamics which are separated from each other;brake actuation being controlled by said braking system electronics at least following the indication of a brake value signal and/or by said travel dynamics electronics on the basis of signals including wheel speed signals and signals from a steering angle sensor, a yawing speed sensor and a transverse acceleration sensor;portions of the braking system electronics being housed separately, divided between a central module and an axle module;the central module and the axle module of the braking system electronics are connected via a system data bus; andthe braking system electronics being connected via a vehicle data bus at least to an engine control electronics; wherein the travel dynamics electronics is connected to the system data bus and the yawing speed sensor and the transverse acceleration sensor being integrated with the travel dynamics electronics.
