Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Regelung des Kraftstoff-Luft-Verhältnisses einer Brennkraftmaschine, wobei das Ausgangssignal einer ersten Lambdasonde, die im Abgaskanal der Brennkraftmaschine vor einem Katalysator angeordnet ist, einem Regler zugeführt wird, welcher eine PI-Charakteristik aufweist, und der Regler eine Stellgröße für das Kraftstoff-Luft-Verhältnis abgibt und daß dem Regler ein weiteres Signal zugeführt wird, welches aus dem Ausgangssignal einer zweiten, dem Katalysator nachgeordneten Lambdasonde gewonnen wird, und auf den Regelkreis der ersten Lambdasonde einwirkt.The invention relates to a method for regulating the fuel-air ratio an internal combustion engine, the output signal of a first Lambda sensor in the exhaust duct of the internal combustion engine in front of a catalytic converter is arranged, a controller is supplied, which has a PI characteristic has, and the controller a manipulated variable for the fuel-air ratio emits and that the controller is fed another signal, which from the output signal of a second, downstream of the catalyst Lambda probe is obtained, and on the control loop of the first Lambda sensor acts.

Um eine genaue und anpassungsfähige Regelung zu ermöglichen, wird der P-Anteil des Ausgangssignals des Regelkreises der ersten Lambdasonde in Abhängigkeit des Ausgangssignals der zweiten Lamdasonde geändert.

Figure 00000001
In order to enable precise and adaptable control, the P component of the output signal of the control circuit of the first lambda probe is changed as a function of the output signal of the second lambda probe.
