Abstract: A suspension control system includes: a suspension, a damping force of which fluctuates in accordance with a control amount; and a control unit controlling the damping force by determining the control amount. The control unit executes a control amount correction process of determining the control amount by combining a base control amount and a correction control amount. The control unit executes the control amount correction process such that the damping force becomes smaller than a base damping force regardless of a stroke speed in the case where a requested damping direction is an upward direction, and executes the control amount correction process such that the damping force becomes larger than the base damping force regardless of the stroke speed in the case where the requested damping direction is a downward direction.

Abstract: A vehicle travel control system includes: a sensor for detecting an acceleration or an angular velocity of a sprung mass structure of the vehicle; and a controller configured to: calculate a first sprung parameter being a velocity or a displacement of the sprung mass structure from the sensor detection value; apply a high pass filter to the first sprung parameter to acquire a second sprung parameter; and control travel of the vehicle based on the second sprung parameter. The controller changes strength of the high pass filter according to an offset level representing a magnitude of an offset component of the first sprung parameter. Regarding a first offset level and a second offset level higher than the first offset level, the high pass filter is stronger in a case of the second offset level than in a case of the first offset level.
