Abstract:

To address the problem of insufficient analysis of continuous changes and randomness in traditional model-based prediction techniques, a engine air-fuel ratio feedback control method based on Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) intake quantity prediction is proposed. The simulation analysis results show that compared with the real-time feedback control method of the intake air sensor, the lambda average error of the control method proposed in this paper is reduced by 12% and 29% respectively under the transient operating conditions of the two engines, effectively improving the control accuracy of the air-fuel ratio, while also having strong anti-interference ability.

Key words: Gaussian process regression, real-time feedback control, intake prediction, air-fuel ratio control
