Abstract
An engine air/fuel feedback control system adjusts the engine air/fuel ratio in response to a modified output of an exhaust gas oxygen sensor. A sensor output is compared to a reference at its nominal midpoint to develop a two-state signal indicating operation rich or lean of stoichiometry. This two-state or step output is shifted towards the peak efficiency window of a catalytic converter by pumping current through a sensor electrode in response to an error signal derived from a downstream sensor. Shifts in the upstream sensor amplitude caused by current pumping are corrected by a correction factor which is adaptively learned during a test cycle.
