Abstract

Dans l'hypothèse où un coefficient de correction par rétroaction est calculé de manière appropriée, au moyen d'un algorithme de commande présentant un mécanisme de régulation de paramètre adaptatif utilisant le principe de régulation de Landau, même lorsque le mécanisme de régulation de paramètre fonctionne pour chaque cycle de commande du carburant à chaque point mort haut, une valeur d'entrée utilisée dans le mécanisme de régulation de paramètre doit représenter une valeur pour chaque cycle de combustion tel que le point mort haut dans un cylindre spécifique. En outre, un organe de commande adaptatif et le mécanisme de régulation de paramètre servant à calculer un paramètre adaptatif utilisé dans l'organe de commande adaptatif sont synchronisés avec un cycle de combustion. Le cycle de commande de l'organe de commande adaptatif et du mécanisme de régulation de paramètre est modifié en fonction du régime du moteur. Ceci permet de réduire un volume de fonctionnement matriciel et donc de réduire la charge d'un ordinateur embarqué. Ceci permet non seulement d'achever une opération dans un point mort haut mais également d'améliorer la gouvernabilité par réduction des temps morts. Il est ainsi possible de poursuivre la commande adaptative même dans des conditions de conduite telles que des grandes vitesses où la durée de fonctionnement a tendance à être réduite, ce qui permet d'obtenir une bonne gouvernabilité.
