Original Abstract Submitted
A vehicle steering control apparatus and a method of controlling the vehicle steering control apparatus. When a rotational movement of a steering wheel is detected during autonomous traveling, a steering apparatus is controlled by changing a reference steering angle signal for controlling the steering apparatus, while a vehicle is kept traveling in an autonomous traveling mode for a predetermined time without deactivating the autonomous traveling mode. Thus, a change due to the rotational movement of the steering wheel is compensated for, the instability in autonomous traveling caused by switching between traveling modes is eliminated, and the occurrence of a traffic accident due to deviation from the vehicle's intended traveling course and loss of control is prevented. As a result, the effect of improving the stability in the autonomous traveling can be achieved, ensuring that the vehicle stays on the intended traveling course.
