Abstract
A brake-by-wire system includes an actuator to initiate a brake for decelerating a vehicle. A brake fade management system of the brake-by-wire system includes an actuator target arbitrator module, a compliance module, and an output loss module. The compliance module calculates and delivers displacement adjusted actuator target data to the actuator target arbitrator module. The output loss module calculates and delivers output adjusted actuator target data to the actuator target arbitrator module. The actuator target arbitrator module processes the displacement adjusted actuator target data and the output adjusted actuator target data, and outputs an actuator target command signal to the actuator.
