Abstract

Current production engines use look-up table and proportional and integral (PI) feedback control to regulate air/fuel ratio (AFR), which is time-consuming for calibration and is not robust to engine parameter uncertainty and time varying dynamics. This paper investigates engine modelling with the diagonal recurrent neural network (DRNN) and such a model-based predictive control for AFR. The DRNN model is made adaptive on-line to deal with engine time varying dynamics, so that the robustness in control performance is greatly enhanced. The developed strategy is evaluated on a well-known engine benchmark, a simulated mean value engine model (MVEM). The simulation results are also compared with the PI control.
