Abstract

A device and a method for controlling a drive unit of a vehicle. Starting from the position of an operating element, a power determining signal may be preselected. The actuator element is controlled as a function of a filtered power determining signal. The signal is filtered with a filter having at least one high-pass filter and one low-pass filter connected in parallel. The filtering is performed so that the filtered signal has at least one corresponding pulse in a transition to a modified signal.
