ABSTRACT:
A shock absorber is connected between a vehicle body and a vehicle wheel. The shock absorber provides a variable damping force. A control apparatus for the shock absorber includes an actuator for adjusting the damping force provided by the shock absorber. A vibration detecting device serves to detect a relative vibration between a spring upper member and a spring lower member. A damping-factor estimating device serves to estimate a damping factor of the shock absorber. A speed estimating device serves to estimate an absolute speed of the spring upper member on the basis of the relative vibration detected by the vibration detecting device and the damping force estimated by the damping-force estimating device. A signal setting device serves to set a drive signal of the actuator on the basis of the absolute spring upper member speed estimated by the speed estimating device.
