DSC: Dynamic Stability Control

The current status of the vehicle is determined by the DSC by evaluating the following sensor signals:

• Yaw rate (measure of movement of the car about its vertical axis)
• Steering angle
• Brake pressure
• Wheel speeds (measure of the car's Road speed)

The DSC transmits data regarding the current vehicle status to the LDM, such as:

• Function request for current deceleration

With automatic braking, the brake lights are activated depending on the deceleration values (legally prescribed).

Example: The DSC is notified of a function request from the LDM via the PT-CAN to reduce the road speed. To fulfill this request, DSC intervenes in the brake system (goal: comfortable brake deceleration. No DSC intervention with regard to enhanced operating stability.)
