Abstract

Disclosed are a control device and a control method for a damping force variable damper. The control device includes: a damping force setting part setting a damping force target value generated in each damping force variable damper based on lateral acceleration, yaw rate and vehicle speed of the vehicle; a driving current setting part setting a driving current generated in each damping force variable damper based on the damping force target value; and a cornering state judgment part determining the cornering status of the vehicle based on at least one of the lateral acceleration, steering angle, yaw rate and roll angle. When it is determined that the vehicle is in the initial cornering state, the rear wheel damping force target value of the vehicle is set to be higher than the front wheel damping force target value of the vehicle.
