Abstract
For regulating the driving dynamics of a road vehicle, setpoints for the yaw rate {dot over (&PSgr;)} and the float angle &bgr; of the vehicle are generated continuously by evaluating a simulation computer implemented vehicle model. The simulation computer generates control signals for activating at least one wheel brake of the vehicle based on a comparison of the reference values {dot over (&PSgr;)},as a setpoint, and the actual values {dot over (&PSgr;)},of the yaw rate continuously recorded by a yaw rate sensor. The vehicle model is represented by a linear differential equation system of the form [P]·({overscore ({dot over (X)})})=[Q]·({overscore (X)})+({overscore (C)})·&dgr;(t). The driving-dynamic state values &bgr;,(k−1) and {dot over (&PSgr;)},(k−1) are updated at a point in time t(k−1), followed by a point in time t(k) that is later by a clock time interval T,, by evaluation of the system of equations
