Compensation of influence of transverse acceleration on braking shift-down points

摘要

A method for controlling an automatic transmission of a vehicle includes detecting a deceleration of the vehicle; detecting a cornering value of the vehicle; determining, as a function of the deceleration and as a function of the cornering value, a compensated shift-down point of a rotational speed at which shifting into a relatively low gear of the transmission occurs; and selecting a gear as a function of the compensated shift-down point.
