Abstract

An electric power steering apparatus that reduces an uncomfortable feeling due to a noise at a steering holding and a low-speed steering time, and can smoothly steers so as to prevent a phase-lag at a high-speed steering time. The apparatus has a torque control section to calculate a current command value based on at least a steering torque, and assist-controls a steering system by driving a motor using a current control system based on the current command value. A motor angular velocity calculating section calculates a motor angular velocity from a motor rotational angle; a motor angular acceleration calculating section calculates a motor angular acceleration from the motor angular velocity; and a stability compensating section calculates a steering torque for compensation and a current command value for compensation based on the motor angular velocity and the motor angular acceleration. The steering torque compensates the steering torque, and the current command value compensates the current command value.
