Abstract

A hydraulic controller includes an actuator for electrically controlling the hydraulic pressure, a hydraulic-pressure sensing part for sensing an actual value of the hydraulic pressure in the actuator, and an ECU for controlling the actuator. The ECU includes a fundamental hydraulic-pressure value command part for carrying out setting and command of a fundamental hydraulic-pressure command value, a feedforward control part for calculating through an inverse filter a first target hydraulic-pressure command value in accordance with the fundamental hydraulic-pressure command value, a feedback control part for calculating a second target hydraulic-pressure command value in accordance with the sensed actual value of the hydraulic pressure and the fundamental hydraulic-pressure command value, and a target control-amount determination part for determining a target control amount of the actuator in accordance with the first and second target hydraulic-pressure command value, wherein the ECU controls the actuator in accordance with the determined target control amount.
