a method for control of a transmission of a vehicle , especially of an automatic transmission or an automated manual mechanical transmission with hydraulically actuatable shifting elements is described . a speed signal of the output train with precalculatable time curve is determined and for adjustment of a nominal filling of the shifting elements an interference signal is applied . in case of a untolerable divergence of the speed signal of the output train from its precalculated curve , a divergence from the nominal filling of the shifting element is detected , the information being processed for control of the shifting elements .
