20120004803 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR OPERATING AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE - A method and a device operate an internal combustion engine having a plurality of cylinders with which are associated respective injection valves for metering fuel, and having an exhaust gas probe which is arranged in an exhaust gas tract and the measurement signal of which is characteristic of the air/fuel ratio in the respective cylinder, and having a crankshaft angle sensor the measurement signal of which is representative of a crankshaft angle of the crankshaft. Within a predefined operating range of the internal combustion engine, and when at least one predefined condition is fulfilled, a rough-running based cylinder-individual diagnosis (CYBL-HOM) with regard to harmful emissions is carried out before activation of a cylinder-individual lambda control (CILC) is enabled. | 01-05-2012 |
20140326227 | Method and Device for Operating an Internal Combustion Engine - An internal combustion engine has a plurality of cylinders with fuel-metering injection valves, and an exhaust gas probe that generates a measurement signal characteristic of the air/fuel ratio in the respective cylinder. A correction signal for fuel mass to be metered is determined using a lambda controller as a function of the exhaust gas probe measurement signal. When at least one predefined condition is met within a predefined operating range of the engine, a cylinder-specific diagnosis relating to the emissions of pollutants is performed on the basis of unsmooth running, wherein the cylinder-specific diagnosis is actively performed only in a respective detection phase that is applied to a neutral value by a modified proportional discrete level of the correction signal and is performed with a modified integral parameter of the lambda controller that is reduced as compared with an integral parameter in a normal operating mode of the lambda controller. | 11-06-2014 |
