Abstract

A method is provided for decelerating a vehicle. The vehicle has an electro-pneumatic brake system, at least one front axle, at least one rear axle, and a brake value transmitter. The vehicle further includes at least one axle modulator for the front axle of the vehicle, for performing control of at least one front axle brake pressure at the at least one front axle, and/or at least one axle modulator for the rear axle of the vehicle, for performing control of a rear axle brake pressure at the at least one rear axle of the vehicle. The method includes generating a redundancy signal at a first axle, the front axle or rear axle, or at a trailer control valve, and performing open-loop and/or closed-loop control of an auxiliary brake pressure at another axle, the front axle or the rear axle, via the redundancy signal.
