Abstract
A control method for a braking system of a vehicle is provided. The control method involves predetermining a clamping force threshold value detectable by a caliper sensor, identifying a defined caliper stiffness model, estimating a clamping force value using the caliper stiffness model, and generating an actuator control signal based on the estimated clamping force value.
