Abstract
The invention relates to a method for providing a manipulated variable for an actuator () of an active chassis of a motor vehicle (), wherein the manipulated variable in the event that a value for a projected variable, which is dependent upon a height profile of the terrain to be travelled by the motor vehicle (), is available, is configured from a combination of a Skyhook variable, which is dependent upon a movement of a structure of the motor vehicle (), and the projected variable, and wherein the manipulated variable is configured from a combination of a soft-spring variable, which is dependent upon a wheel-suspension of the motor vehicle (), and the Skyhook variable, if no value for the projected variable is available.
