A method for controlling a braking system of a vehicle for the distribution of braking torques for service braking. The method may include receiving, by an electronic control unit, a request to apply a braking torque during a braking time interval. The method may also include enabling, in the braking time interval, by the electronic control unit a first and/or second electrical actuation signal of first and/or second brake calipers. Braking torques may be applied when the signals are enabled. For each instant of the braking time interval, an amplitude of the braking torque required for service braking is equal to the sum of a first amplitude of the first braking torque and a second amplitude of the second braking torque.

A method for controlling deceleration of a vehicle is provided. The vehicle has a braking system having a braking actuation lever, a braking actuator, and at least one braking device. The method involves measuring a current lever position of the braking actuation lever and a current lever speed of the braking actuation lever, dynamically mapping the current lever position and the current lever speed, processing a deceleration curve as a function of the dynamic mapping, and decelerating the vehicle according to the deceleration curve for each current lever position measured in a lever stroke.

A method for controlling wheel slip in a braking system of a vehicle includes receiving, by an input interface module of a slip control module, information representative of the vehicle and information representative of an estimate of the status of the vehicle, outputting, by the input interface module, input wheel slip control information, determining, by a parameter self-loading module, based on information representative of the vehicle and information representative of an estimate of the status of the vehicle, wheel slip control parameters, determining, by a plurality of wheel slip control enabling modules of the slip control module, a plurality of enabling signals of the wheel slip control, and determining, by each closed-loop wheel slip control module of a plurality of closed-loop wheel slip control modules of the slip control module a setpoint value of a control variable to be applied to a respective corner of the vehicle to minimize error between the defined slip setpoint and the estimated wheel slip value.

A method for controlling the braking action applicable by a brake caliper on a mechanical movement member of a vehicle is described. An electronic control unit operatively connected to an actuator assembly receives an input signal representative of a braking request. The unit determines a first reference value of a position of a component in the actuator assembly and a second reference value of a parameter representative of the braking action applicable by a brake caliper via the actuator assembly. The unit determines at least one feedback value of the position of a component in the actuator assembly. The unit also generates at least one control signal for the actuator assembly based on feedback values and the reference values.
