Method of controlling the active regeneration of a particulate filter through dynamic control of the temperature at the outlet of an oxidation catalyst. A control law is defined for a hydrocarbon flow rate at the oxidation catalyst inlet, by means of the ratio between a temperature demand and a gain. The gain can be corrected so as to take account of the transient phenomena that occur in the oxidation catalyst during a gas flow rate variation. The temperature demand can comprise a precompensation term to compensate for the effects of a temperature variation at the oxidation catalyst inlet. The temperature demand can comprise a feedback term calculated by a controller whose parameters are automatically calculated by means of a physical model of the catalyst, during operating conditions variations. Any combination of these terms allows to define a suitable control law. Finally, the hydrocarbon flow rate is modified by applying the control law so that the temperature of the gas leaving said catalyst respects a set point temperature. Application: engine control.
