Engine management systems (EMS) has become an essential component of a spark ignition (SI) engine in order to achieve high performance; low fuel consumption and low exhaust emissions. An engine management system (EMS) is a mixed-signal embedded system interacting with the engine through number of sensors and actuators. In addition, it includes an engine control algorithm in the control unit. The control strategies in EMS are intended for air-to-fuel ratio control, ignition control, electronic throttle control, idle speed control, etc. Hence, the control system architecture of an EMS consists of many sub-control modules in its structural design to provide an effective output from the engine. Superior output from the engine is attained by the effective design and implementation of the control system in EMS. The design of an engine control system is a very challenging task because of the complexity of the functions involved. This paper consolidates an overview of the vital developments within the SI engine control system strategies and reviews about some of the basic control modules in the engine management system. |
