Apparatus and method for controlling smart regenerative braking based on yaw rate

An apparatus for controlling smart regenerative braking based on yaw rate, the apparatus comprising:

• a processor;
• a sensor electrically connected to the processor;
• an input/output interface electrically connected to the processor;
• and
• a memory connected to the processor and storing instructions,
• wherein, based on that an instruction stored in the memory is executed by the processor, the processor is configured to perform a vehicle state determination logic configured to determine a map information reception state and a vehicle steering state based on vehicle driving information and a yaw rate measurement value obtained through the sensor and the input/output interface,
• the processor is configured to perform a target deceleration setting logic configured to obtain a first target deceleration based on a distance between vehicles or a second target deceleration based on map information using at least one of the map information, the vehicle driving information, and the yaw rate measurement value depending on whether the map information is receivable, and
• the processor is further configured to perform a target torque setting logic configured to determine a smaller value between the first target deceleration and the second target deceleration and set the smaller value as target deceleration, and determining target torque for regenerative braking based on the target deceleration.
