ABSTRACT:
An electrically operated power steering apparatus for applying an assistive steering force to a steering system has an electric motor for producing an assistive steering force to be applied to the steering system, a steering torque sensor for producing a steering torque signal indicative of a steering torque of the steering system, and a rotational speed sensor for producing a rotational speed signal indicative of a rotational speed of the electric motor. A controller produces a differential signal of the steering torque signal, calculates a steering rotational speed of the steering system based on the differential signal and the rotational speed signal, and controls the electric motor based on the steering torque signal and the steering rotational speed. The rotational speed signal may be calculated based on a motor current signal indicative of a motor current of the electric motor and a motor voltage signal indicative of a motor voltage of the electric motor.
