An improved active brake control method which compensates for the effects of a banked road surface under both steady state and transient operating conditions of the vehicle. The control includes an observer for estimating the lateral velocity of the vehicle as a means of determining vehicle slip angle, and a time derivative of the estimated lateral velocity is used along with measured values of lateral acceleration, vehicle speed and yaw rate to compute the lateral acceleration component due to the banked road surface, referred to as the bank acceleration. The bank acceleration, in turn, is then used to correct the values of measured steering angle and the measured lateral acceleration used (1) to develop the desired yaw rate, slip angle and lateral acceleration, and (2) to estimate the surface coefficient of adhesion and slip angle. Partial compensation can be achieved by applying suitable gain factors to the computed bank acceleration, if desired.
