Abstract
A method for controlling a multitude of braking devices of a vehicle to effect a desired brake function quantified as a desired brake parameter, wherein each of the braking devices is controllable by an actuation parameter to effect at least a portion of said desired brake function, comprising the steps: determine, for each braking device, a brake capability representing a maximum brake function achievable by the braking device; determine, for each braking device, an actuation priority, wherein the actuation priority is determined from at least one predetermined operating parameter of the braking device and/or the vehicle; in order from highest priority to lowest priority of the braking means, allocating, to each braking device, the actuation parameter, wherein the actuation parameter is chosen between the brake capability and the quantity of the desired brake parameter not yet allocated to other braking devices, whichever is lower. Further, a braking system for a vehicle is configured to carry out the method.
