Abstract

Herein provided are methods and systems for controlling an engine having a variable geometry mechanism. A power level difference between a requested engine power level and a current engine power level is determined at a computing device. The power level difference is compared to a predetermined power threshold at the computing device. When the power level difference exceeds the predetermined power threshold, a position control signal for changing a position of the variable geometry mechanism is generated and output at the computing device, the position control signal generated based on a requisite bias level, the requisite bias level being based on the power level difference.
