1. A method for operating a door actuator of a door system, having at least one movable door leaf and having a control device, which is designed to control a drive of the door actuator coupled to the door leaf, and having a sensor unit, which is designed to detect people in a region before the door system, and transmits information about the people to the control device, the method comprising the following steps:
detecting a first person,
calculating the probable arrival time of the first person at the door leaf,
calculating first control parameters to actuate the door leaf in relation to the first person,
detecting at least one second person,
calculating the probable arrival time of the second person at the door leaf,
calculating second control parameters to actuate the door leaf in relation to the second person,
linking the first control parameters with the second control parameters to form a first control parameter set, and
controlling the drive of the door leaf on the basis of the first control parameter set, wherein after calculating first control parameters to actuate the door leaf in relation to the first person, the first control parameters are saved in an index memory, and
wherein after calculating second control parameters to actuate the door leaf in relation to the second person, a query takes place to determine whether first control parameters are present in the index memory.
