A steering control device includes a processor. The processor is configured to execute a process in a state where dynamic force transmission between a steering wheel and a turning wheel is not performed. The process includes: a process of controlling a reaction force that is given to the steering wheel, by operating torque of the reaction force motor depending on the value of a reaction force command variable; a process of reflecting a predetermined component of a frequency signal that is given to the turning wheel in the value of the reaction force command variable; and a process of restricting the degree of contribution of the predetermined component to the value of the reaction force command variable, to a smaller degree, in a situation where a steering system including the steering wheel is unstable.

Steering control device

A processor is configured to execute reaction force setting processing, reaction force application processing, axial force gradient calculation processing, and interlock processing. The reaction force setting processing is processing of setting steering reaction force using phase compensation processing. The reaction force application processing is processing of operating a reaction force motor with reaction force set by the reaction force setting processing as input. The axial force gradient calculation processing is processing for calculating an axial force gradient as a variable indicating the ratio of the change in resisting force against rotation of the steering shaft to the change in rotation angle of the steering shaft. The interlocking processing is processing of changing one of both the value of a phase compensation regulation variable as a variable for regulating a manner of the phase compensation and the axial force gradient according to the other.

A steering control apparatus controls a motor used to turn a steered wheel of a vehicle, which synchronizes with a steering wheel, based on a command value.

The electronic control unit is configured to compute a disturbance torque based on the feedback control torque and a predetermined angle. The electronic control unit is configured to correct the feedback control torque by using the disturbance torque. The electronic control unit is configured to correct the command value reflecting the corrected feedback control torque, based on an applied torque.

Steering control apparatus

A steering control device includes a torque command value calculating unit configured to calculate a torque command value which is a target value of a motor torque when operation of a motor is controlled such that the motor torque is generated. The torque command value calculating unit includes a first component calculating unit configured to calculate a first component, a second component calculating unit configured to calculate a second component, and a torque component calculating unit configured to calculate a torque component. The first component calculating unit is configured to add a calculational hysteresis component to the first component such that hysteresis characteristics with respect to change of a specific state variable are provided. The torque component calculating unit is configured to perform calculation in a first calculation situation and calculation in a second calculation situation.

A control apparatus for a motor includes an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit includes a first controller, a second controller, a third controller, and a fourth controller.
