Abstract
Long term average idle speed control has been studied in most of engine idle control systems in automotive engines, but they allow undesirable short-term engine speed fluctuation even under steady idle conditions. Actually the difference in the torque production among cylinders influences the idle stability by making the fluctuation of engine speed ripples. In this paper, we suggest that the control of the spark ignition timing for each cylinder based on neural network reduce the unbalanced combustion among cylinders, and maintain uniform and stable engine speed. We apply genetic algorithm to neural network structure with oscillatory neurons in sensor array in order to decrease the engine speed fluctuation efficiently.
