Abstract
At the present, a long term stoichiometric Air/Fuel Ratio (AFR)
control of the an SI engine is maintained by using a switching
HEGO sensor and gain scheduled, high gain, PI controller. Because
of its inexpensive and primitive design and the engine time delay,
this loop has a very low effective bandwidth. It seldom exceeds 2
Hz. This is altogether too small for accurate transient air/fuel
ratio control. This paper presents a new lambda (normalized
air/fuel ratio) control methodology based on a time delay
observer. This technique makes possible a significant increase of
the lambda control bandwidth while at the same time incoporating
an integration term so that stationary AFR errors are reduced to
zero.
