Abstract

In an electronically controllable brake booster a value is sensed which is characteristic for the actual pressure characteristic in the pressure chamber. The actual pressure characteristic is checked for the existence of periodic oscillation components of a predetermined frequency band with a predetermined minimum amplitude. Upon the existence of such periodic oscillation components, the current flowing through an electromagnetic actuator for a control valve arrangement of the brake booster is decreased by a first predetermined value for a first pressure changing position. Further, the current for a second pressure changing position is decreased by second predetermined value.
