Abstract

The quantity of air inducted in a cylinder of an engine is estimated by using equations based on various coefficients. The coefficients are stored in a memory and derived in accordance with engine operating conditions. A basic injection pulse width is calculated by the estimated inducted air quantity and speed of the engine. The basic injection pulse width is corrected by a feedback coefficient, thereby producing a fuel injection pulse width signal for operating a fuel injector of the engine.
