Abstract
A control device for an autonomous power braking system of a vehicle includes: an activation unit configured to (i) output a pump control signal to a pump of the braking system, taking into consideration a supplied presetting signal regarding an autonomous braking pressure buildup to be carried out, in such a way that a braking pressure in a wheel braking cylinder is increased by the activated pump, and (ii) output a brake booster control signal to an active brake booster of the braking system, taking the presetting signal into consideration, in such a way that a boosting force is exerted on at least one adjustable piston of a master brake cylinder of the braking system by the active brake booster in such a way that the braking pressure in the wheel brake cylinder is increased via an increased internal pressure in the master brake cylinder.
