3. ABS CONTROL LOGIC
The principal ABS control logic is the determination of the reference speed by choosing one wheel
meeting a certain condition, while sensing the speed information from 4 wheel speed sensors when the
vehicle is being driven.
For example, when the comparison of the reference speed with front right wheel speed shows a slip, the
control signal is determined according to whether it's deceleration or acceleration. If the control
conditions are met, the brake for the front right wheel will be got under control.

comes on regardless of EBD system when the parking brake is applied.

3) Basic ABS Control
Operation of ABS control unit ▶
Applications of the ABS control unit The signals
produced by the wheel sensors are evaluated
in the electronic control unit. From the
information received, the control unit must first
compute the following variables:
Wheel speed
Reference speed
Deceleration
Slip -
-
-
-
Reference speed ▶
The reference speed is the mean, I.e. average speed of all wheel speeds determined by simple
approximation.
Simplified ABS control ▶
If, during braking, one wheel speed deviates from the reference speed, the ABS control unit attempts to
correct that wheel speed by modulating the brake pressure until it again matches the reference speed.
When all four wheels tend to lock, all four wheels speeds suddenly deviate from the previously
determined reference speed. In that case, the control cycle is initiated again in order to again correct the
wheel speed by modulating the brake pressure.

5) EBD (Electronic Brake Force Distribution) System
System description ▶
As an add-on logic to the ABS base algorithm, EBD works in a range in which the intervention
thresholds for ABS control are not reached yet.
EBD ensures that the rear wheels are sensitively monitored for slip with respect to the front axle. If slip is
detected, the inlet valves for the rear wheels are switched to pressure hold to prevent a further increase
in pressure at the rear-wheel breaks, thus electronically reproducing
a pressure-reduction function at the rear-wheel brakes.
ABS features an enhanced algorithm which includes control of the brake force distribution between the
front and rear axles. This is called Electronic Brake Distribution. In an unloading car condition the brake
efficiency is comparable to the conventional system but for a fully loaded vehicle the efficiency of the
EBD system is higher due to the better use of rear axle braking capability.
Advantages ▶
Elimination of conventional proportioning valve
EBD utilizes the existing rear axle wheel speed
sensor to monitor rear wheel slip.
Based on many variables in algorithm a
pressure hold, increase and/or decrease
pulsetrain may be triggered at the rear wheels
insuring vehicle stability.
Vehicle approaches the ideal brake force
distribution (front to rear).
Constant brake force distribution during vehicle
lifetime.
EBD function is monitored via ABS safety logic
(conventional proportioning valves are not
monitorable). -

3. FUNCTION
1) Term Definition
ABS: Anti-Lock Brake System ▶
When the brake pedal is abruptly depressed, the HECU calculates the slip ratio of each wheel based on
information received from the wheel speed sensors and controls the hydraulic module data quickly and
precisely in order to maintain the friction between the road surface and tire optimal (static friction).
Therefore, by keeping the friction between the road surface and tire optimal, it is possible to obtain
following effects: Enhanced steering stability, improved direction stability, reduced stopping distance and
etc.
EBD: Electronic brake-Force Distribution ▶
This is to detect the tire speed from the wheel speed sensor in order to supply the braking pressure to
the rear tires individually. In other words, the HECU measures the tire deceleration speed continuously
and controls the rear inlet valve on the hydraulic modulator to obtain optimal braking force as much as
possible. Thereby, stopping distance, braking effect and straight stability are improved.
ESP: Electronic Stability Program ▶
This is used to make the vehicle stabilized to recognize the emergency driving conditions, and to control
the brake for each wheels and the engine power when the brake system or acceleration will not work
any more in dangerous circumstances.
TCS: Traction Control System ▶
When the wheel is slipping due to an excessive engine torque while starting off or driving, this controls
the driving force (braking force + engine torque) in order to prevent the wheel from slipping through the
engine or brake control.
AYC: Active Yaw Control ▶
This has been developed to help a driver avoid danger of losing control of the vehicle stability due to
understeer or oversteer during cornering, which is a part of the ESP function.
HBA: Hydraulic Brake Assistant ▶
Developed based on the fact that elderly drivers depress the brake pedal too soft even when hard
braking is necessary, this an assist system to operate the HECU drive motor immediately and apply high
braking force to the wheels when the brake pedal is depressed softly and the vehicle should be braked
in emergency.
ARP: Active Rollover Protection ▶
This is a supplementary device for safety in ESP system and can help minimize the rollover accidents by
detecting a potential rollover situation through the brake and engine control when making sudden lane
change or turning sharply by adding only the software, without any separate device or switch.

4) HBA (Hydraulic Brake Assist System)
(1) Purpose
HBA (Hydraulic Brake Assist) system helps in an emergency braking situation when the driver applies
the brake fast, but not with sufficient pressure, which leads to dangerously long braking distance. ECU
recognizes the attempt at full braking and transmits the signal calling for full brake pressure from the
hydraulic booster. An inexperienced, elderly or physically weak driver may suffer from the accident by not
fully pressing the brake pedal when hard braking is required under emergency. The HBA System
increases the braking force under urgent situations to enhance the inputted braking force from the driver.
Based on the fact that some drivers depress the brake pedal too soft even under when hard braking is
necessary, the HECU system is a safety supplementary system that builds high braking force during
initial braking according to pressure value of the brake pressure sensor and the pressure changes of the
pressure sensor intervals. When the system is designed to apply high braking force when brake pedal is
depressed softly by an elderly or physically weak driver, the vehicle will make abrupt stopping under
normal braking situation due to high braking pressure at each wheels.
(2) Operation
The brake pressure value and the changed value of the pressure sensor are the conditions in which the
HBA System operates. There are 2 pressure sensors under the master cylinder. When the ESP ECU
system determines that emergency braking is present, the pump operates, the brake fluid in the master
cylinder is sent to the pump and the braking pressure is delivered to the wheels via the inlet valves . If the
drive depress the brake pedal slowly, the pressure change is not high. In this case, only the conventional
brake system with booster is activated.
(3) Operating conditions
Sensor pressure: over 40 bar
Pressure changes: over 850 bar/sec
Vehicle speed: over 30 km/h -
