    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a hydraulic brake system for a highly automated or autonomous vehicle which includes three pressure generators which provide sufficient braking force even in a case of a fault. Two of the pressure generators are assigned in a redundant manner to one axle and a modulation unit is configured to hydraulically connect the two pressure generators to the wheel brakes of the first axle, and to perform individual brake pressure modulation in the wheel brakes. The third pressure generator is hydraulically separate from the other pressure generators, and another modulation unit is configured to hydraulically connect the third pressure generator to wheel brakes of another axle, and to perform individual brake pressure modulation in the wheel brakes.

    Abstract: A multiple-circuit, hydraulically open brake has two single-circuit pressure generators hydraulically connected in parallel between at least one fluid container and at least two wheel brakes and a modulation unit for individual brake pressure modulation in the at least two wheel brakes. A first pressure generator is assigned to a main system which has a first energy supply and a first evaluation and control unit, and a second single-circuit pressure generator is assigned to a secondary system, which has a second energy supply which is independent of the first energy supply, and a second evaluation and control unit. The second evaluation and control unit controls the second pressure generator. Components of the modulation unit are assigned to the main system so that the modulation unit and the first pressure generator are controlled by the first evaluation and control unit and supplied with energy by the first energy supply.

    Abstract: An operational method for controlling a first brake pressure generator. The operational method includes reading the detected wheel speeds into the brake pressure generator control unit, simulating a control strategy of the secondary control unit for controlling the hydraulic unit based on the wheel speeds so that a brake pressure required at the respective wheel is ascertained, predicting the pressure resulting from the control strategy of the secondary control unit and the brake pressure at the first brake pressure generator, and controlling the first brake pressure generator in accordance with the predicted resulting pressure if the predicted resulting pressure exceeds a limit value, so that the pressure resulting at the brake pressure generator is lower than the predicted pressure due to an activation of the first brake pressure generator.

    Abstract: A hydraulic braking system for a vehicle has two sub-braking systems hydraulically separated from one another. A first sub-braking system of a first axle has a first circuit, a main system with a first power supply and a first ECU, and a secondary system with a second power supply and a second ECU. The first circuit includes first and second pressure generators assigned, respectively, to the main system and the secondary system, in parallel between a fluid container and wheel brakes. A modulation unit connects the pressure generators to the wheel brakes. A second sub-braking system of a second axle includes a second circuit and an auxiliary system with a third power supply and a third ECU. The second circuit includes a pressure generator assigned to the auxiliary system arranged between a fluid container and wheel brakes, and a modulation unit connecting the pressure generators to the wheel brakes.
