Abstract:
A system and method for controlling wheel brakes on a trailer in a tractor-trailer are provided. Upon receiving a command to apply a trailer wheel brake, the system determines a speed of the tractor-trailer responsive to a speed signal generated by a vehicle speed sensor. The system also estimates a threshold speed based on a level of friction between the tractor-trailer and a road surface on which the tractor-trailer is travelling. The system then generates a control signal to control delivery of fluid pressure to the trailer wheel brake. The control signal causes delivery of a first fluid pressure to the trailer wheel brake when the speed meets a predetermined condition relative to the threshold speed and a second fluid pressure, less than the first fluid pressure, when the speed does not meet the predetermined condition.

Claim (Index 32):
The method of  claim 29  wherein the substep of adjusting the coefficient of friction includes adjusting the coefficient of friction responsive to the lateral force and at least one of an ABS flag indicative of whether an anti-locking braking system of the tractor-trailer has been activated and an ATC flag indicative of whether an automatic traction control system of the tractor-trailer has been activated.
