Abstract
A method for determining the inclined position, includes using a sensor, whose measuring axis is inclined by a pitch angle with respect to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle, a rate of rotation having a roll rate component and a yaw rate component is measured. Ultimately, a roll angle for describing the inclined position of the vehicle is ascertained from the rate of rotation.
