Abstract: An electric power steering apparatus that improves an on-center feeling while improving vehicle response by increasing a steering assist current in a torque range where a steering torque is equal to or less than a static friction torque of a reduction mechanism mainly so as to reduce a static friction uncomfortable feeling in the vicinity of on-center. The apparatus drive-controls a motor for providing a steering mechanism with a steering assist force using a current command value calculated based on at least a steering torque. The apparatus includes: a static friction compensating section that calculates a static friction compensation command value for compensating static friction of the steering mechanism based on the steering torque and a vehicle speed, wherein the current command value is corrected with the static friction compensation command value.

Abstract: An electric power steering apparatus that reduces an uncomfortable feeling due to a noise at a steering holding and a low-speed steering time, and can smoothly steers so as to prevent a phase-lag at a high-speed steering time. The apparatus has a torque control section to calculate a current command value based on at least a steering torque, and assist-controls a steering system by driving a motor using a current control system based on the current command value. A motor angular velocity calculating section calculates a motor angular velocity from a motor rotational angle; a motor angular acceleration calculating section calculates a motor angular acceleration from the motor angular velocity; and a stability compensating section calculates a steering torque for compensation and a current command value for compensation based on the motor angular velocity and the motor angular acceleration. The steering torque compensates the steering torque, and the current command value compensates the current command value.
