Abstract

A method is for operating a steering system, more particularly a steer-by-wire steering system. The steering system includes at least one wheel steering angle control element which is provided to influence and/or change a wheel steering angle of at least one vehicle wheel depending on a target specification signal correlated with a steering specification. The wheel steering angle control element has a limited maximum wheel steering angle control range for changing the wheel steering angle, and the target specification signal is limited by a saturation to the maximum wheel steering angle control range. The target specification signal is modified in such a manner that the, more particularly modified, target specification signal has a constant and differentiable curve at least in an edge range of the wheel steering angle control range.
