Abstract
A control apparatus includes an electric current estimation unit to improve a responsiveness of an AC motor. The electric current estimation unit performs, at predetermined intervals, a dq conversion, a correction process, and an inverted dq conversion. The dq conversion calculates d/q axis electric current estimate values based on a detection value of a sensor phase from a sensor, and on an electric current estimate values of two phases of the AC motor other than the sensor phase from a previous cycle. The correction process corrects, during the dq conversion, the d/q axis electric current estimate values in an orthogonal direction that is orthogonal to a sensor phase axis. The inverted dq conversion calculates the electric current estimate values of the two phases other than the sensor phase based on the d/q axis electric current estimate values corrected by the correction process and smoothed by a low-pass filter process.
