Abstract
In order to precisely determines the time to start feedback control of line pressure during a shifting period, a shift control computer calculates an effective gear ratio Ge=Nt/Nos at the time of an shift instruction based on input shaft rotational speed Nt and detected vehicle speed Nos and then calculates a parameter F=Nos.times.Ge-Nt indicating the point to start feedback control based on the input shaft rotational speed Nt, the detected vehicle speed Nos and the effective gear ratio Ge. By comparing the calculated parameter F with a predetermined value .DELTA.Nt, hydraulic pressure at the start of shift operation is maintained if F<.DELTA.Nt and, if F.gtoreq..DELTA.Nt, feedback control is performed to cause the input shaft rotational speed Nt to vary in a predetermined manner.
