Abstract
A wheel braking system for a motor vehicle includes sensors, controllable actuators, and an electronic control device for regulating the rpm of a vehicle wheel when an actual driving state of the vehicle differs from a specified desired driving state calculated as a function of the driving parameters, using a mathematical vehicle model. An automatic correction of the vehicle model, corresponding to a deviation of the desired driving state specified at the moment from the actual driving state at the moment, is performed during vehicle operation if an ideal driving condition exists. The ideal driving condition is a driving state in which it is known that no deviation that leads to regulation occurs. At least one condition is defined by which it is detected whether ideal driving condition exists.
