Abstract
A method for adjusting brake pressures at pneumatically actuated wheel brakes of a vehicle includes receiving an external braking demand. The method further includes, in response to the received external braking demand, performing, during each of a plurality of computation cycles: (i) ascertaining control signals for pressure control valves of the pneumatically actuated wheel brakes of the vehicle, (ii) continuously ascertaining a differential slip value, wherein the differential slip value is a difference between a slip of two axles of the vehicle and is determined by measuring signals supplied by speed sensors of wheels of the vehicle, (iii) evaluating the differential slip value with respect to a predefined or adjustable setpoint differential slip value, (iv) based on the evaluation of the differential slip value, adapting the ascertained control signals, and (v) releasing the adapted control signals to the pressure control valves.
