ABSTRACT:
A system and method for controlling a damping characteristic of at least one shock absorber for an automotive vehicle in which, when direction determining signs of both vertical sprung mass velocity (V) and relative velocity (Sv) between a sprung mass and an unsprung mass are the same, the variable control of the damping characteristic C is carried out at either of extension stroke side (V is plus and Sv is plus) or contraction stroke side (V is minus and Sv is minus) to provide C=.alpha..multidot.V/Sv, and when the direction determining signs of both vertical sprung mass velocity (V) and relative velocity (Sv) between the sprung mass and the unsprung mass are mutually different, the variable control of the damping characteristic C is carried out at either of extension stroke side (V is plus and Sv is minus) or contraction stroke side (V is minus and Sv is plus) to provide C=.alpha..multidot.V.
