Abstract

A braking control method according to friction of road surface includes computing a real-time wheel speed according to a signal received from a wheel speed sensor; storing the real-time wheel speed as a wheel initial velocity when a braking event occurs; determining a relative-peak value according to the real-time wheel speed; estimating a vehicle deceleration according to the relative-peak value and the wheel initial velocity; computing an adjustment parameter according to the vehicle deceleration and a tire slip threshold, wherein the adjustment parameter reflects friction coefficient of road surface; and adjusting time length of an enhancement stage in an enhance-pressure control period of a stepped pressure-increasing phase according to the adjustment parameter; or adjusting time length of a reduction stage in a reduce-pressure control period of a stepped pressure-decreasing phase according to the adjustment parameter.
