A method for updating a configuration of a braking arrangement in a vehicle is provided. The method comprises obtaining sensor data indicative of a status of the vehicle and/or of the braking arrangement during at least a part of a braking operation performed by the braking arrangement. The method further comprises predicting, based on the obtained sensor data, at least one component that are part of the braking arrangement. The method further comprises in response to detecting that the configuration of the braking arrangement does not comply with the at least one component, updating the configuration to be based on the at least one component.

A method for braking a vehicle, including checking whether a trigger criterion for braking the vehicle is present, and if the trigger criterion is satisfied, causing a conditioning braking pulse through brief pulsed braking such that passengers experience brief braking of the vehicle, and immediately thereafter initiating a braking phase in which the vehicle is braked in at least two partial braking regions by an actual ego deceleration that varies with respect to time, wherein each partial braking region is extended over a partial braking interval and merge into one another without the actual ego deceleration changing abruptly, and the actual ego deceleration in at least one of the partial braking regions is changed continuously over the respective partial braking interval such that a different actual jerk is obtained in each partial braking region, and wherein the actual jerk behaves degressively over at least some partial braking regions.

A method for controlling an activation state of a braking-torque assistance system for reducing intake of braking energy in a service-brake system of a vehicle includes capturing and evaluating a plurality of demand indications for a startup of the braking-torque assistance system. If the evaluation of the captured plurality of demand indications reveals a demand for the startup of the braking-torque assistance system, a plurality of operating conditions of the service-brake system are captures and evaluated over a monitoring period. If, in turn, the evaluation of the captured plurality of operating conditions reveals that an overheating of the service-brake system is imminent, the braking-torque assistance system is actuated and one or more deactivation conditions of the braking-torque assistance system are checked. If the deactivation conditions are satisfied, the braking-torque assistance system is deactivated.

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.

A method for detecting the speed of a bicycle, where the bicycle is equipped with an ABS system on the front wheel, in which, if the rear wheel deceleration is less than a preset threshold value, then the speed of the bicycle is identified with the rear wheel speed. If the front brake circuit pressure is below a preset low pressure threshold, then the speed of the bicycle is identified with the front wheel speed. Otherwise the speed of the bicycle is an estimated speed based on the last known speed and likely deceleration.

A method for controlling deceleration of a vehicle is provided. The vehicle has a braking system having a braking actuation lever, a braking actuator, and at least one braking device. The method involves measuring a current lever position of the braking actuation lever and a current lever speed of the braking actuation lever, dynamically mapping the current lever position and the current lever speed, processing a deceleration curve as a function of the dynamic mapping, and decelerating the vehicle according to the deceleration curve for each current lever position measured in a lever stroke.

A vehicle control device includes an information acquirer that acquires information on driving conditions of a vehicle at least containing a steering angle and a vehicle speed, a distribution amount setter that sets a distribution amount of a brake force to each of multiple wheels provided in the vehicle based on the driving conditions of the vehicle; and a brake controller that performs brake control of each of the multiple wheels according to the distribution amount set by the distribution amount setter. When the vehicle speed is equal to or lower than a 22nd vehicle speed value within a low vehicle speed range, the distribution amount setter sets the distribution amount of a brake force to each of the multiple wheels including a specific wheel to a value which is smaller than a distribution amount when the vehicle speed exceeds the 22nd vehicle speed value.

A vehicle control device includes an information acquirer that acquires information on driving conditions of a vehicle at least containing a steering angle and a vehicle speed, a distribution amount setter that sets a distribution amount of a brake force to each of multiple wheels provided in the vehicle based on the driving conditions of the vehicle; and a brake controller that performs brake control of each of the multiple wheels according to the distribution amount set by the distribution amount setter. The distribution amount setter sets the distribution amount to zero when the steering angle SA is less than a first steering angle threshold where the steering angle SA is recognizable as a substantially neutral state.

A vehicle control device includes an information acquirer that acquires information on driving conditions of a vehicle at least containing a steering angle and a vehicle speed; a brake force setter that sets a brake force to each of a plurality of wheels provided in the vehicle based on the driving conditions of the vehicle; and a brake controller that performs brake control for each of the plurality of wheels using the brake force set by the brake force setter, wherein the brake force setter remains the first brake force for the first specific wheel during a turn-over operation while the turn-over operation is performed from the one side steering position through a neutral position to other side steering position.

A collision avoidance apparatus includes a travelling state calculation section, a target detection section, a target state calculation section, a lateral moving object determination section, a collision determination section, and a collision avoidance control section. The collision avoidance control section calculates, based on (i) a passing-through period of the lateral moving object in which the lateral moving object passes through an own vehicle course that is a moving course of the own vehicle and (ii) a reaching time of the own vehicle that is a period remaining before the own vehicle reaching a lateral moving object course that is a moving course of the lateral moving object, an operation timing of the brakes for the lateral moving object passing through the own vehicle course before the own vehicle reaches the lateral moving object course, and operates the brakes at the calculated operation timing of the brakes.
