Abstract
In a method for determining a steering angle for a vehicle, a steering angle is determined using a single-track model of the vehicle, wherein the steering angle is corrected only if the difference between the derivative of a measured steering lock angle and the derivative of a calculated steering lock angle is below a threshold value. Otherwise the measurement is repeated.
