In this instance, a d-axis current command value, which is a command value for a d-axis current of the rotary electric machine, is calculated on the basis of a torque command value for the rotary electric machine and the rotation speed of the rotary electric machine.

A q-axis current command value, which is a command value for a q-axis current of the rotary electric machine, is calculated on the basis of the torque command value and the corrected d-axis current command value. On the basis of the increment of the corrected d-axis current command value with respect to the d-axis current command value, a compensation value for compensating torque ripple changed by the correction of the d-axis current command value is calculated. The q-axis current command value is corrected using the compensation value, whereby a corrected q-axis current command value is calculated.
