Adaptation of a drift gain according to steering wheel torque in order to improve the feel of a power-steering system

A power-steering device includes a steering wheel and an assistance motor controlled by a controller which uses at least one closed-loop control law ensuring an adjustment of the steering wheel torque, the controller including at least one feedback arm which calculates a drift component by measuring or assessing an actual force parameter corresponding to the actual steering wheel torque, by next calculating a time drift value of the actual force parameter, and then multiplying the time drift value by a drift gain, wherein the controller uses three-dimensional cartography to adjust the drift gain according to a portion of the actual force parameter and the longitudinal velocity of the vehicle, according to a first domain, referred to as "parking domain", which extends from a longitudinal vehicle velocity of zero to a predetermined longitudinal velocity threshold, and a second domain, referred to as "driving domain", which extends beyond the longitudinal velocity threshold.
