Abstract
A braking force control system is provided with a controller connected to a vehicle operating condition detector, an engine braking force actuator and a wheel braking force actuator. The controller determines a target total braking force on the basis of the vehicle operating condition, a target transmission ratio and a target engine output on the basis of the target total braking force and calculates an engine braking force on the basis of the vehicle operating condition. The controller extracts a fast component of a rate of change of the target total braking force and determines a target wheel braking force on the basis of the fast component. The controller controls wheel braking force actuator so as to correspond the wheel braking force to the target wheel braking force. Therefore, a total responsibility of the system is improved by enhancing a follow-up characteristic during a first half of a transient period.
