Abstract
A method for the open-loop or closed-loop control of the braking action at at least one wheel of a vehicle. In this method, a transverse-dynamics quantity is ascertained which describes the transverse dynamics of the vehicle. As a function of a vehicle-dynamics quantity which describes the vehicle dynamics, or a wheel-dynamics quantity which describes the wheel dynamics of at least one wheel, it is determined whether a driver-independent braking intervention is necessary. In the event that a driver-independent braking intervention is necessary, a pulse-shaped signal is determined for triggering the actuators assigned to at least one wheel. The first pulse of the pulse-shaped signal is influenced in its time duration as a function of the transverse-dynamics quantity.
