<p>An electronically controlled braking system for a vehicle in which vehicle load measurements, made dynamically, as used to modify the braking demand, individually for each axle of the vehicle and in which, under predetermined conditions of vehicle speed, braking level and operating gradient, the deceleration error formed between braking demand by the driver and measured actual vehicle deceleration is used gradually, over a number of vehicle stops, to form an adaptive factor for correcting the braking demand in order to restore expected braking perfor-Imance. No correction to the adaptive factor based on the deceleration error is made during a given stopping operation of the vehicle, but a summation of previous errors is arranged to cause a small increment in correction to be made after each stop until, over a number of vehicle stops, the error formed under the predetermined conditions falls to zero. Braking demands by the driver can be arranged to be compensated by introducing a demand offset dependent on the prevailing gradient on which the vehicle is operating.</p> |
