METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DETERMINING A COEFFICIENT OF FRICTION OF A PASSABLE SUPPORTING SURFACE WITH THE AID OF AN EGO VEHICLE

A method and device for determining a coefficient of friction of a passable supporting surface with the aid of an ego vehicle, including a step of acquiring first data values, which represent a moisture level in the surrounding area of the ego vehicle, a step of checking the plausibility of the acquired, first data values by comparison with at least one second data value, and a step of determining third data values, which represent the coefficient of friction of the passable supporting surface; the determination taking place as a function of the plausibility check of the first data values, using the at least one second data value.
