    Abstract: A method of continuously estimating barometric pressure values for use in an engine control system. The vehicle includes an manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor, ambient air temperature sensor and a throttle position sensor. The method comprises the steps of determining the manifold absolute pressure, ambient air temperature, and throttle position. When the throttle position is at wide-open throttle, the method generates a barometric pressure value ({circumflex over (P)}anew) as a function of the manifold absolute pressure value (P) and previously estimated barometric pressure. Otherwise, the method generates a barometric pressure value as a function of the manifold absolute pressure value (P), and an estimated intake manifold pressure ({circumflex over (P)}) and estimated mass airflow (). In a further embodiment, a mass airflow sensor is also used to generate the estimated barometric pressure value when the engine is not operating at wide-open throttle.

    Abstract: A method for controlling a spark ignited direct injection internal combustion engine having an air intake with a throttle valve positioned therein and a plurality of cylinders operable in at least a homogeneous operating mode with a homogeneous air/fuel mixture and an associated range of allowable homogeneous air/fuel ratios and a stratified mode with a stratified air/fuel mixture and an associated range of allowable stratified air/fuel ratios, wherein the homogeneous range and stratified range do not overlap, includes determining a desired value for an engine operating parameter based on current engine operating conditions wherein the desired value results in scheduling of an air/fuel ratio between the homogeneous range and stratified range of allowable air/fuel ratios, operating a first portion of the cylinders in the homogenous operating mode, and operating a second portion of the cylinders in the stratified operating mode such that a combined air/fuel ratio associated with the first and second portions of the cylinders approaches the scheduled air/fuel ratio. The invention provides an additional degree of freedom in controlling a DISI engine without additional sensor/actuator cost and provides a hybrid operating mode which closes the gap between stratified and homogeneous operating modes.

    Abstract: A method and system for controlling torque disturbances in direct injection stratified charge and lean burn port-fuel injection engines (12) through continuously variable transmission (40). The method and system include using the continuously variable transmission (40) to mitigate the effects of torque disturbances due to a lean NOx trap (22) purge cycle (100). The continuously variable transmission (40) is coordinated with other engine variables, such as throttle (36), fueling rate (Wf), injection timing (&ggr;), and spark timing (&dgr;), to keep the operation near the optimal regime. In periods of trap (22) purge, the engine control variables and the continuously variable transmission (40) are coordinated to maximize purge efficiency for a predetermined period of time. In periods of normal operation (102), the engine control variables and the continuously variable transmission (40) are coordinated to minimize fuel consumption subject to emission constraints.
