Abstract:
1. A control apparatus for a vehicle comprising: a vertical acceleration sensor configured to detect a sprung vertical acceleration; a friction brake attitude control unit configured to control a friction brake by calculating a brake attitude control amount outputted from the friction brake such that the sprung vertical acceleration detected by the vertical acceleration sensor becomes an acceleration corresponding to a target sprung state; a stroke sensor configured to detect a stroke speed of a damping force variable shock absorber; a damping force control unit configured to control the damping force variable shock absorber by calculating a damping force control amount of the damping force variable shock absorber such that the stroke speed detected by the stroke sensor becomes a stroke speed corresponding to the target sprung state and/or a target unsprung state; a first feedback control system based on the sprung vertical acceleration and configured by the vertical acceleration sensor and the friction brake attitude control unit; and a second feedback control system based on the stroke speed and configured by the stroke sensor and the damping force control unit, wherein the first feedback control system and the second feedback control system are operable in parallel.
