Abstract:
A system for adjusting a transmission ratio in a transmission built into a motor vehicle, the system comprising:at least two determining elements for determining values to provide determined values based on different determining modes with the determined values representing the driving behavior of the driver of the motor vehicle and with said determining elements having special determining modes; counter means; administrator means independent of said special determining modes and being for calling up said determining elements and for causing said determining elements to transmit said determined values as call-up values to said counter means according to a pregiven priority; said counter means being for changing at least one counter value in dependence upon said call-up values; determining means for determining a driver type value in dependence upon said counter value, said driver type value representing the driving behavior of the driver of the motor vehicle; means for adjusting the transmission ratio at least in dependence upon said driver type value; and, said determining elements having uniform interfaces to said administrator means and having uniform interfaces to said counter means.
