Abstract
A decentralized control system for a vehicle braking system, comprises: electrically controlled wheel braking devices, each comprising an electronic control device and an actuator which is electrically actuatable by the control device, and by which the individual wheel brakes are actuatable in a mutually independent manner; and wheel speed sensors for detecting a rotational wheel speed. A wheel speed sensor is assigned to each wheel of the motor vehicle, wherein at least one control device of the wheel braking devices is connected to all the wheel speed sensors and is designed to receive wheel speed information from all the wheel speed sensors. The at least one control device of the wheel braking devices is designed to determine a vehicle speed on the basis of wheel speed information thus received, together with a motor vehicle braking system and a motor vehicle.
