Abstract
A control device for a power steering apparatus for controlling a torque applied to the power steering apparatus in accordance with a travel condition. A travel condition determining unit generates a travel condition signal in accordance with an average steering angle value and an average velocity value. A load determining unit generates a load signal in accordance with a sensed load condition. A correction signal generating unit generates a correction signal in accordance with the travel condition signal and the load signal. A memory stores a single reference control characteristic for the power steering apparatus. A correcting unit corrects the reference control characteristics in accordance with the correction signal to provide optimal power steering control.
