METHOD FOR DETERMINING A WHEELBASE OF A VEHICLE AND VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEM FOR USING SUCH A METHOD

The invention relates to a method for determining a wheelbase (L) of a vehicle (1) having at least two axes (FA, RA) in which measurement signals (?; nFL, nFR, nRL, nRR, q) of the vehicle (1) are recorded at least during travel of the vehicle (1) through a curve, and the wheelbase (L) is determined...

Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a method for determining a wheelbase (L) of a vehicle (1) having at least two axes (FA, RA) in which measurement signals (?; nFL, nFR, nRL, nRR, q) of the vehicle (1) are recorded at least during travel of the vehicle (1) through a curve, and the wheelbase (L) is determined from at least the measurement signals (?; nFL, nFR, nRL, nRR). A yaw rate and the rotational speeds of the wheels for determining the wheel speeds are measured particularly and the wheelbase is determined from geometrical calculations. The invention further relates to a vehicle control system for using the method.
