A method of controlling an engine to help achieve a target air:fuel ratio based on data from an oxygen sensor, and related systems. At least one engine operating parameter and a sensed oxygen level are determined at two or more points in one of a rich and lean region based on data from the oxygen sensor. This information is used to help control engine operation in the other of the rich and lean regions without using directly sensed oxygen level data from that region. Thus, a control paradigm is developed in a first operating region based on oxygen level data from the oxygen sensor, and then used for control in a different second operating region without direct sensed oxygen level data in that second operating region. In some embodiments, the control paradigm may be adaptive based on changing conditions. |
