Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for improving an anti-lock control system, in particular for improving driving stability during braking on laterally different coefficients of friction. According to the method, a desired yaw rate is determined using at least one steering angle signal of a steering angle sensor and an actual yaw rate is determined using at least one yaw rate sensor, and the instability is evaluated using a parameter that serves for a qualitative and quantitative judgment of a deviation between the actual yaw rate and the desired yaw rate. Both yaw rate deviation and the time derivative of the yaw rate deviation are used to determine the parameter.
