Abstract
A method for the longitudinal control of a vehicle according to a target trajectory specifying a series of target positions to be adopted by the vehicle over time. Based on an actual status of the vehicle, a control acceleration is determined for the purpose of trajectory control, by which the vehicle is to be accelerated according to specifications of the target trajectory. Based on an actual speed of the vehicle and a predefined maximum speed which should not be exceeded when travelling the target trajectory, a control acceleration for the purpose of speed control is determined, by which the vehicle is to be accelerated in order to travel at the maximum speed. Both control accelerations are supplied to an arbiter which determines a resulting control acceleration from same, wherein the vehicle is accelerated according to the resulting control acceleration. A device for the longitudinal control of the vehicle is provided.
