PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a motor driving device that commands a step-up voltage of a step-up converter so as to minimize present and future losses of a motor driving system.SOLUTION: On the basis of a current rotation speed ω and a torque command Trqof an MG (AC motor), current loss estimation means 33 of step-up command generation means 321 estimates a power loss of any one or more of a battery, a step-up converter, an inverter and the MG at the present. On the basis of a rotation speed estimate ω_est estimated by future rotation speed prediction means 34 and future torque prediction means 35 and a torque estimate Trq_est, future loss estimation means 36 predicts an operational status of the MG at a prediction time point a predetermined period after from the present and estimates a power loss of any one or more of the battery, the step-up converter, the inverter and the MG at the prediction time point. On the basis of estimation results by the current loss estimation means 33 and the future loss estimation means 36, step-up command determination means 37 determines a step-up command VHto the step-up converter. |
