Abstract
An automatic transmission has a gear transmission mechanism with engaging devices. Up-shifting is achieved with oil pressure, which is controlled with an open control component, a gradient of which is determined based on input torque, and a feedback control component, which is based on a target gear ratio. To prevent shock during an up-shift caused by releasing the accelerator, the feedback control component is set to zero when the amount of change in the throttle opening is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value. As a result of inhibiting increase in feedback to make up for a tendency for oil pressure depending on an open control component to decrease as a result of the throttle opening reducing and input torque falling, increase of the oil pressure command value becomes smooth. Peaks of the output torque are therefore suppressed.
