Abstract

See full text

According to an embodiment of the present invention, an apparatus for controlling an electric power steering system includes a failure detection unit detecting whether a torque sensor has failed; a first calculation unit calculating an absolute steering angle based on information detected by a motor position sensor; and a second calculation unit calculating an estimated lateral acceleration of a vehicle based on the absolute steering angle calculated by the first calculation unit and velocity of the vehicle received from a velocity sensor, wherein, if a failure of a torque sensor is detected by the failure detection unit, an assist current value is applied to the motor based on the estimated lateral acceleration of the vehicle.
