Patent ID: 8914191

Claim:
A method for controlling an electrohydraulic braking system for motor vehicles, being activatable in a “brake-by-wire” operating mode comprising, providing an electronic control and regulation unit having a processor; providing a pressure supply device in communication with the processor of the electronic control and regulation unit, the pressure supply device condigured to be activated by the electronic control and regulation unit in a “brake-by-wire” system when in the “brake-by-wire” operating mode, the pressure supply device is connected or can be connected to at least one hydraulically actuatable wheel brake and by means of which the wheel brake can be hydraulically actuated, wherein the pressure supply device is formed by a cylinder-piston assembly, the piston of which can be actuated by an electromechanical actuator, determining by the processor a pressure target value (P V,Soll ) for the pressure supply device, performing by the processor a pressure control operation or an actuator position control operation on the pressure supply device in accordance with the magnitude of the pressure target value (P V,Soll ).
