Abstract

To enable achievement of stable braking regardless of influences by aging or the like of a brake device. There is provided a brake ECUfor a vehiclewith a brake devicethat can adjust a break force depending on fed hydraulic pressure, the vehicleincluding: a master pressure sensorconfigured to measure hydraulic pressure fed to the brake device; and a G sensorand a wheel speed sensorconfigured to be capable of detecting acceleration of the vehicleand measure acceleration information, the brake ECUbeing configured to include: a pressure command value computation portionconfigured to determine a hydraulic pressure fed to the brake deviceat a time of deceleration of the vehicleon a basis of a preset coefficient and cause the determined hydraulic pressure to be fed to the brake device; and a brake torque coefficient computation portionconfigured to learn a coefficient candidate, which is a candidate to change the coefficient, and change the coefficient to the coefficient candidate on a basis of a relationship between the hydraulic pressure and the acceleration.
