Abstract

See full text

The invention is directed to a control of an air/fuel ratio during operation of an internal combustion engine having a catalytic converter and an NOx sensor mounted behind the catalytic converter as seen in flow direction. The engine is operated alternately in a first phase with a mixture which is deficient in fuel compared to the stoichiometric mixture composition and, in a second phase, with a stoichiometric or rich mixture composition. The triggering of the change between the two phases is influenced by the signal of the NOx sensor.
