A method and an arrangement for controlling a drive unit make a vehicle speed control possible wherein operating conditions not wanted by the driver are avoided. A desired quantity, which is to be outputted by the drive unit, is formed in dependence upon a pregiven vehicle speed. The desired quantity, which is to be outputted, is monitored in dependence upon at least one operating parameter of the vehicle.

Method and arrangement for controlling the drive unit of a vehicle

An electronic system for a vehicle includes first components for carrying out control tasks in response to operating sequences and second components that coordinate a cooperation of the components for carrying out control tasks. The first components carry out the control tasks by using operating functions and basis functions, wherein the system is constructed such that the basis functions are combined in a basis layer, and a system layer is superimposed on the basis functions, which includes at least two of the second components. At least one open interface of the system layer is provided for the operating functions, and the system layer links the basis functions to any and all operating functions, such that the operating functions can be interconnected and/or used in a modular fashion.

Electronic system for a vehicle and system layer for operational functions

A method for providing a signal, representing the longitudinal inclination of a vehicle, for a control unit for the slip control and/or for the control of a quantity describing the yaw rate of the vehicle, measured quantities which can be acquired and processed for ascertaining a signal representing a longitudinal inclination of the vehicle, and/or the ascertained signal representing the longitudinal inclination being transmitted from a control device for the headlight-leveling control to the control unit for the slip control and/or for the control of the quantity describing the yaw rate.

Method for providing a quantity representing the longitudinal inclination of a vehicle

A system for controlling the motion of a vehicle is suggested which includes several levels. In a first level, at least one component is provided for controlling the vehicle motion which, in a further level, includes, as a refinement, a component &ldquo;propulsion and brake&rdquo;. In a third refinement level, this component is structured at least into the components &ldquo;propulsion&rdquo;and &ldquo;brake system&rdquo;.
