Abstract
A braking system in an at least partially autonomous vehicle, having one vehicle wheel brake per vehicle wheel, which is assigned to both the primary brake regulation system and a redundant secondary brake regulation system, wherein the primary brake regulation system has a primary control unit and one electromechanical primary actuator per vehicle wheel for actuating the vehicle wheel brake, and wherein the primary control unit generates primary positioning signals for activating the respective electromechanical primary actuator on the basis of a setpoint deceleration specification generated in a pilot system and/or a setpoint deceleration specification generated on the part of the driver by a brake pedal. The secondary brake regulation system has a secondary control unit independent of the primary control unit and one electromechanical secondary actuator, independent of the primary actuator, per vehicle wheel.
