PURPOSE: A suspension control system is provided to realize damping characteristic control of high accuracy and reduce cost for producing a suspension control system with a cheap acceleration sensor. CONSTITUTION: By passing the vertical acceleration through a phase adjusting filter(13) and a gain adjusting filter(14), the phase of the vertical acceleration is advanced by 49 degrees so that the phase difference with respect to the actual relative velocity becomes 180 degrees in the neighborhood of the vehicle body resonance point, thereby making the phase of the vertical acceleration, in effect, coincident with the phase of the relative velocity. In the neighborhood of the vehicle body resonance point(1 Hz), the gain of the estimated relative velocity takes a small value. In frequency regions other than the neighborhood of the vehicle body resonance point, the gain of the estimated relative velocity is increased. Consequently, the controlled variable in the neighborhood of the vehicle body resonance point increases, and the controlled variable in higher frequency regions decreases. Damping force is adjusted in correspondence to the controlled variable. Thus, it is possible to improve ride quality in the neighborhood of the vehicle body resonance point(1 Hz).
