Abstract
A method is provided for operating an actuator of a steer-by-wire steering system of a motor vehicle at speeds from a standstill up to parking and/or maneuvering speeds. The method includes detecting an instantaneous steering angle of at least one wheel on an axle of the motor vehicle, detecting a steering angle demand, determining a limit value of an acceleration of a drive mechanism of the actuator at least as a function of the instantaneous steering angle, and activating the actuator for setting a steering angle of at least one wheel as a function of the steering angle demand and using the limit value of the acceleration.
