Abstract
An apparatus for controlling a suspension of a vehicle to improve high-speed driving stability of the vehicle includes: a sensor that obtains information about a road surface ahead the vehicle during travel of the vehicle; and a controller that derives a height value of the road surface from the information about the road surface, determines a state of the road surface based on a differential value of the derived height value, predicts vehicle behavior corresponding to the determined state of the road surface, and controls a damping force of the suspension based on the predicted vehicle behavior.
