Abstract
The present invention relates to a system and a method for controlling a feedback torque actuator in a steering system. The steering system comprises a steering assistance actuator () with a torsion bar () and a feedback torque actuator () with an Electric Control Unit, ECU, for giving feedback to a driver, a steering wheel () to which the driver applies a driver torque, T. Only the torsion bar of the steering assistance actuator () comprises a torsion-bar torque sensor, and a target torque for the feedback torque actuator () is a target steering feel torque compensated for torque sensed in the torsion bar ().
