METHOD FOR OPERATING A BRAKE SYSTEM, BRAKE SYSTEM AND CONTROL SYSTEM

In a method for operating a brake system of a vehicle during autonomous driving of the vehicle, a presence of status information relating to a driving command unit which controls the autonomous driving is checked by a brake control unit of the brake system. If the brake control unit detects that the status information is missing or detects status information which indicates an error of the driving command unit, a control signal which controls the autonomous driving in the longitudinal and/or transverse direction is generated by the brake control unit from current environmental data and/or driving parameters.
