Multiple-Circuit Hydraulically Open Braking System, in particular for a Highly Automated or Autonomous Vehicle

A multiple-circuit hydraulically open braking system, for a highly automated or autonomous vehicle, includes at least two wheel brakes each assigned to a braking circuit having a pressure relief path, two multiple-circuit pressure generators hydraulically connected in series between a fluid container and the at least two wheel brakes, and a hydraulic unit for hydraulically connecting the pressure generator to the at least two wheel brakes and for individual brake pressure modulation in the at least two wheel brakes. A first pressure generator is configured as a plunger system and is assigned to a main system having a first energy supply and a first evaluation and control unit. A second pressure generator is configured as a second plunger system or as a pump system and is assigned to a secondary system having a second energy supply that is independent from the first energy supply and a second evaluation and control unit.
