Abstract:
Provided is an apparatus and method for detecting steering information in which a plurality of torque sensors and sensors for sensing a rotation angle of a steering shaft are provided and thus it is possible to calculate steering information, such as a steering torque, a steering angle, etc., even upon occurrence of failure in some sensors. A plurality of torque sensors and absolute angle sensors (rotation angle sensors) are provided, and after it is determined whether an output value of each sensor is synchronized, a torque and a steering angle are calculated accordingly. Therefore, even upon occurrence of failure in some sensors, it is possible to calculate a torque and a steering angle normally, and thus steering control is possible.

Claim (Index 10):
The apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein the steering angle calculator calculates the steering angle based on an output value of one rotation angle sensor having a highest priority order among synchronized rotation angle sensors and the average value of the output values of the two torque sensors of the normal state having the preset high priority orders or the output value of the single torque sensor in the normal state.
