Control system for automatically activating or deactivating a roll- away prevention facility in motor vehicles
A control system for a motor vehicle automatically activates or deactivates a parking lock or an automatic roll-away prevention facility. The control system has at least one electronic control unit which is designed such that limited maneuvering operation is possible within set boundary conditions in accordance with predefined embarking conditions and in accordance with predefined disembarking conditions, an identified intentional maneuvering demand of the driver after prior automatic roll-away prevention of the vehicle being defined as a predefined embarking condition. The limited maneuvering operation may be activatable both in the case of an activated motor and in the case of a deactivated motor proceeding from a secured state. Depending on the differently defined disembarking conditions that are satisfied, a transition can be made from the limited maneuvering operation either into the secured state, or driving operation can be permitted if the defined conditions for the automatically secured state are no longer present.
METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A BRAKE SYSTEM OF A VEHICLE
A method for controlling a brake system of a vehicle comprises detecting a failure of a sensor for at least one of the vehicle wheels, checking whether a brake control function is being executed at the time of the failure, continuing the brake control function if a brake control function is being executed and deactivating the brake control function when execution of the brake control function has been completed. If no brake control function is being executed at the time of the failure then executing the brake control function if a brake control function is initiated within a defined period of time after the failure, and deactivating the brake control function after execution of the brake control function has been completed and the period of time has expired or if no brake control function has been initiated within the defined period of time.
MOTOR VEHICLE BRAKE SYSTEM, METHOD FOR OPERATING SAME AND CONTROL APPLIANCE THEREFOR
A motor vehicle brake system is specified. The brake system comprises a driving dynamics regulation system, which is designed to carry out a wheel-specific regulating intervention on each of a plurality of vehicle wheels, and an electrically controllable actuator, which is designed to generate or boost a service brake force. The brake system further comprises a control, which is designed, in the event of an identified loss of function of the driving dynamics regulation system, to select one of at least two vehicle wheels on which a regulating intervention by the driving dynamics regulation system would be required and to electrically control the actuator on the basis of a regulating intervention determined for the selected vehicle wheel.
VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE
Provided is a vehicle control device that can reduce the discomfort to the driver and the influence on an object to be loaded and prevent collision damage. A vehicle control device 100 controls the deceleration of a vehicle 1 based on the distance and the relative speed between the vehicle 1 and an obstacle in front of the vehicle. The vehicle control device 100 includes a control unit 101 that sequentially performs initial braking and main braking on the vehicle 1. The control unit 101 controls a timing of the initial braking based on the estimated weight of the vehicle including the weight of an object to be loaded without changing a timing of the main braking.
CONTROL DEVICE FOR POWER TRANSMISSION MECHANISM
A control device for a power transmission mechanism includes a controller. The power transmission mechanism includes an engagement mechanism and an operation mechanism including a movable member and a guide member. The guide member includes a plurality of guide areas being configured to move relative to the movable member to guide the movable member to an engaging position or to a disengaging position. The controller is configured to switch, when determining that a predetermined condition related to traveling of the vehicle is satisfied, a contact guide area that is in contact with the movable member to guide the movable member to the engaging position or to the disengaging position, from a first guide area to a second guide area that are included in the plurality of guide areas.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INTELLIGENTLY ENGAGING MULTIPLE BRAKES
A system for multiple brakes intelligently controlled by a single brake input on a personal mobility vehicle. By determining a front and rear brake differential based on the position and weight of the rider as well as the environmental and vehicle conditions, the system may reduce the risk of the vehicle skidding or tipping due to over-braking. In some embodiments, a rider may use a single brake lever to indicate a desire to brake and the system may make determinations about how to apply a combination of mechanical and electrical brakes to front and back wheels. By applying different braking systems based on a combination of controls and sensors, the system may improve user experience and user safety, especially for inexperienced riders.
VEHICULAR CONTROL SYSTEM WITH CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT AND COLLISION AVOIDANCE
A vehicular driving assist system includes a plurality of cameras and a plurality of sensors disposed at a vehicle. The plurality of sensors includes at least one selected from the group consisting of a plurality of radar sensors and a plurality of lidar sensors. Electronic circuitry of an electronic control unit includes an image processor for processing image data captured by the cameras and a processor for processing sensor data captured by the sensors. The system, while the vehicle is travelling in a forward direction and responsive to processing of image data captured by the cameras and sensor data captured by the sensors, is operable to determine presence of an object approaching a path of travel of the vehicle. The system, responsive to determining presence of the object approaching the path of travel of the vehicle, communicates an alert to a driver of the vehicle.
Vehicle traveling control apparatus
Driving support ECU transmits a communication connection request to a help net center HNC when a driver of a vehicle has been determined to be in an abnormal state where the driver loses an ability to drive the vehicle, and when the communication connection to the help net center HNC has been established, the driving support ECU transmits the help signal (the positional information of the vehicle) and decelerates the vehicle at a constant deceleration to make the vehicle stop. On the other hand, when the communication connection to the help net center HNC has not been established, the driving support ECU makes the vehicle travel at a constant speed. Accordingly, it is possible to make the vehicle stop under a situation where the help net center HNC recognizes the vehicle position inside which the driver who has been determined to be in the abnormal state is.

DYNAMIC RESOURCE ALLOCATION AMONG DIFFERENT OFDM NUMEROLOGY SCHEMES
The present disclosure relates to a resource allocation procedure for allocating time-frequency radio resources by a scheduler in a mobile communication system. A plurality of numerology schemes are defined, each partitioning a plurality of radio resources of the mobile communication system into resource scheduling units in a different manner. A reference resource set is defined per numerology scheme, each being associated to a set of radio resources usable for being allocated according to the respective numerology scheme. The reference resource set of at least one numerology scheme overlaps with the reference resource set of at least another numerology scheme in the frequency and/or time domain. The resource allocation procedure is performed for allocating radio resources to one or more user terminals according to the numerology schemes. The resource allocation procedure is performed for each numerology scheme based on a scheduling time interval defined for the respective numerology scheme.
