Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method for a vehicle control procedure, wherein in the case of this vehicle control procedure a closed loop control of the vehicle velocity is performed on the basis of a predetermined desired value, may comprise the following steps: determining on the basis of at least one predetermined criterion whether in the case of the closed loop control the vehicle velocity leaves a value range that is defined by at least one velocity threshold value while taking into consideration a tolerance range that defines predetermined, permitted deviations from this value range; and implementing a corresponding measure while modifying the vehicle control procedure in dependence upon the result of this determination procedure, wherein the determination procedure is performed on the basis of a signal analysis of at least one measurement signal that describes the movement status of the vehicle.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method for controlling a vehicle comprising: by a controller, during an automatic parking maneuver and in response to an engine torque of the vehicle being at an automatic parking maneuver maximum torque threshold for a predefined period of time, interrupting or terminating the automatic parking maneuver and returning full control of the vehicle to a driver of the vehicle. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the interrupting or terminating is only performed in response to the engine torque being at the automatic parking maneuver maximum torque threshold for the predefined period of time if vehicle speed remains zero for the predefined period of time. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the interrupting or terminating includes braking the vehicle to bring the vehicle to a standstill. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the returning includes alerting the driver.
