Patent ID: 8731759

Claim:
A method for operating two drives which operate on mutually decoupled wheels of a motor vehicle, comprising: transmitting with a control device to the drives signals requesting a desired torque to be generated by each of the drives, so as to attain a desired driving state of the motor vehicle, determining with the control device, based on a measurement variable represented by a steering angle set by a steering member of the motor vehicle and an additional measurement variable different from the steering angle, said additional measurement variable varying as a function of the steering angle, an actual driving state of the motor vehicle and correlating the actual driving state with the desired driving state, determining with the control device, based on at least one measured value associated with the at least one measurement variable, allocation factors for allocating a desired partial torque for each of the two drives, wherein a magnitude of a deviation of a desired value of the additional measurement variable from an actual value of the additional measurement variable at the set steering angle enters into the determination of the allocation factors, executing the previous method steps a plurality of times, wherein weighting factors are defined each time for each allocation factor, said weighting factors depending on at least one of vehicle speed and torque demand, wherein the allocation factors are weighted by the weighting factors and a final allocation factor for each of the two drives is computed by summing the allocation factors determined in each execution after multiplication of the allocation factors with the weighting factors, with the proviso that a sum of the weighting factors is equal to one, and allocating with the control device the desired partial torque to each of the two drives based on the determined final allocation factor.
