Abstract
An anti-lock control method for a vehicle includes the steps of: calculating an operation control quantity on the basis of a braking pressure at the start of an anti-lock control when a wheel is about to be locked during braking, and controlling the operation of an actuator, capable of adjusting the braking force of a wheel brake by the operation control quantity in order to reduce the braking force. In this process, the braking pressure at the start of anti-lock control is corrected with the locking tendency of the wheel to set an adjusted reference braking pressure, and the operation control quantity is calculated on the basis of the adjusted reference braking pressure. Thus, it is possible to determine the reference braking pressure with good accuracy, leading to an enhanced accuracy of the anti-lock control.
