Abstract

A brake regulating system particularly suitable for stabilizing the motion of a commercial vehicle is described, in which a control unit outputs, as a function of a number of input variables, a predefined manipulated variable for the brake pressure of each wheel of a commercial vehicle and/or a predefined manipulated variable for an output variable of the drive engine. For detecting the input variables, the input of the control unit is connected to a steering angle sensor for detecting a steering angle predetermined by the driver, to a sensor system for determining the yaw rate of the commercial vehicle, and to a first acceleration sensor for detecting the transverse acceleration of the commercial vehicle.
