Abstract: A braking control device for a vehicle executes braking force distribution (BFD) biased to the front wheels, taking into account auxiliary braking control such as braking assist control (BAS) executed when an abrupt or full braking action is performed by the driver. In BFD control a braking force on the rear wheels is held at a holding braking force and a braking force on the front wheels is incremented beyond a braking force requested by a braking action of the driver. After the starting of BFD control, further increase in the braking action is reflected in the braking force of the front wheels. When auxiliary braking control is executed, the holding braking force on the rear wheels and the increment of the braking force on the front wheels are determined based upon a demand of the auxiliary braking action as well as the braking action amount by the driver.

Abstract translation: 考虑到当驾驶员执行突然或全部制动动作时执行的诸如制动辅助控制（BAS）的辅助制动控制，车辆的制动控制装置执行偏向前轮的制动力分配（BFD）。 在BFD控制中，后轮上的制动力保持在保持制动力，并且前轮上的制动力增加超过驾驶员的制动作用所要求的制动力。 在BFD控制开始之后，制动动作的进一步增加反映在前轮的制动力中。 当执行辅助制动控制时，基于辅助制动动作的要求以及驾驶员的制动动作量来确定后轮上的保持制动力和前轮上的制动力的增加。

Abstract: A vehicular safety apparatus of the present invention is one actuated according to a collision prediction level of a vehicle. The vehicular safety apparatus of the present invention is provided with a determining device for determining a collision prediction level on the basis of a relative position between a vehicle and an obstacle ahead of the vehicle; a storage for storing a amount of brake operation by a driver at a point where the collision prediction level exceeds a predetermined threshold, as a reference level; and an actuation controller for actuating the safety apparatus in accordance with an increase from the reference level. This prevents the actuation of the safety apparatus from being excessive in the case where an increase of the amount of brake operation is low. Furthermore, in the case of the increase being high, the actuation is controlled so as to fully bring out the performance of the safety apparatus. Therefore, the performance of the safety apparatus can be suitably demonstrated without causing the driver to feel odd.

Abstract: An algorithm residing in, for example the ECM of a motor vehicle, which predicts brake booster vacuum for vehicles using vacuum for brake pedal assist. The predicted brake booster vacuum is compared to a calibrated brake booster vacuum threshold to determine if adequate brake booster vacuum is available to meet vehicle braking requirements, whereupon engine operation can be modified, as necessary, to improve intake manifold vacuum such that brake booster vacuum requirements for vehicle braking are better satisfied.

Abstract: An apparatus for preventing a vehicle collision by using radio communication includes an accelerator pedal sensor for detecting the manipulation state of an accelerator pedal. A control unit receives a signal detected by the accelerator pedal sensor and determines whether the vehicle is in a dangerous condition for outputting a relevant control signal. A radio communication transmitting/receiving module receives the control signal from the control unit and transmits or receives the information to or from vehicles of its dangerous condition. A Hydraulic Control Unit (HCU) receives the control signal of the control unit and maintains the brake system in a standby operating mode. When the information of a prospective hazardous condition is transmitted from the front vehicle, the brake systems of rear vehicles are pre-pressured and are shifted to a standby operating mode, thereby reducing the braking distance of the vehicles and preventing vehicle accidents.
