Abstract
In a valve timing control apparatus for an internal combustion engine using an oil pressure control, a feedback correction amount is calculated so as to have a linear term proportional to a deviation between a target value and an actual value of the valve timing control apparatus, and a non-linear term using a switching function by a sliding mode control. Further, a dither control is added to the feedback correction amount and a learning is performed for a basic control amount and a control gain. Therefore, a control can be executed with high robust, high accuracy and quick response.
