PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To suitably perform a control method of an automatic transmission of a vehicle driven by an internal combustion engine in response to a change in travel resistance, for automatically selecting the gear ratio of the transmission by a switching characteristic map SKFj by depending on a position alpha (t) and an engine speed nmot (t) of an output control mechanism, by controlling the internal combustion engine by using the output control mechanism. SOLUTION: A change dv(t)/dt in a travel speed is detected, and an intermediate quantity SKP1(t) is selected over a position of the output control mechanism and a change in the travel speed. The intermediate quantity is determined by using a first characteristic map 21 divided so as to have an area corresponding to ordinary travel in flatland. The switching characteristic map SKFj is selected so that the gear ratio is shifted in the direction of a higher engine speed by filtering its intermediate quantity. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI |
