Abstract

To estimate the rotation speed of the motor for assisting a steering torque regardless of the running state of a vehicle with accuracy, an application voltage estimation value obtained by subtracting a correction voltage obtained based on a detection current value detected by current detection means from the inter-terminal voltage measurement value of the motor is output and the rotation speed of the motor is estimated based on this application voltage estimation value and the detection current value.
