Method for proportionally controlling the brakes of a vehicle based on front and rear wheel speeds

摘要

An adaptive brake control method, for a motor vehicle with first and second front vehicle wheels and third and fourth rear vehicle wheels, is achieved according to the steps of: receiving an operator input brake command; responsive to a brake command function stored in memory and the operator input brake command, developing a rear brake position command; outputting the rear brake position command to a rear brake actuator; monitoring the first and second front wheel speeds and the third and fourth rear wheel speeds; responsive to the monitored first and second front wheel speeds and the monitored third and fourth rear wheel speeds, updating the brake command function stored in memory, wherein the brake position command table is adaptively updated and a front to rear brake proportioning of the vehicle is adaptively controlled to minimize a difference between the front and rear wheel speeds during braking.
