Patent attributes
A method for operating a steering system of a motor vehicle includes controlling with a control device a superimposition gearing of a superimposition steering of a front axle of the motor vehicle via an actuator so as to impose via the superimposition gearing a superimposition angle on a steering angle of a steering wheel of the motor vehicle as a function of a speed of the motor vehicle and of the steering angle of the steering wheel, wherein within a predetermined angular range of the steering wheel measured from a position of the steering wheel during a neutral straight ahead drive with neutral superimposition angle, the superimposition angle is positive resulting in a direct steering response; and wherein outside the predetermined angular range the superimposition angle is negative resulting in an indirect steering response.
