STANDALONE-TYPLE REAR WHEEL STEERING CONTROL APPARATUS AND METHOD THEREOF

Disclosed herein is an apparatus for controlling standalone-type rear wheel steering (RWS), which includes a vehicle speed detection unit for detecting a vehicle speed by communicating with a sensor installed in a vehicle or an Electronic Control Unit (ECU); a steering angle and steering angular velocity detection unit for detecting steering angles and steering angular velocities of front and rear wheels by communicating with a sensor installed in the vehicle or the ECU; a master cylinder pressure detection unit for detecting a master cylinder pressure by communicating with a sensor installed in the vehicle or the ECU; and a controller for determining braking or turning of the vehicle using the information detected using the sensors or received from the ECU, calculating the amount of toe-in when the vehicle is braking or calculating a rear wheel steering angle when the vehicle is turning, and controlling the RWS based thereon.
