STEERING CONTROL DEVICE, AND STEERING CONTROL METHOD

摘要

Provided are a steering control device and a steering control method therefor which attenuate a sense of unease during steering caused by pulsed changes (short sharp changes) in steering auxiliary torque in cases when control such as steering-wheel return control is switched on and off. Fluctuation in steering auxiliary torque caused by selecting one steering auxiliary torque from at least two steering auxiliary torques is mitigated by low pass filter processing, and the low pass filter processing is corrected in accordance with a change amount of the selected steering auxiliary torque. As a result, a sufficient control effect is achieved, even in cases when highly responsive control is required.
