Abstract:
To keep medium purification efficiency at a high level and prevent deterioration of emission performance. An aspect of the present invention includes: a downstream equivalence ratio calculation unit that calculates a catalyst downstream exhaust gas equivalence ratio by using a catalyst statistical model that receives at least a detection value of an air-fuel ratio sensor on an upstream side of a catalyst and outputs a catalyst downstream exhaust gas equivalence ratio; an oxygen output calculation unit that calculates an output value of an oxygen sensor by using an oxygen sensor statistical model that receives the catalyst downstream exhaust gas equivalence ratio and outputs an output value of the oxygen sensor on the downstream side of the catalyst; a downstream equivalence ratio correction unit that corrects the catalyst downstream exhaust gas equivalence ratio calculated by the downstream equivalence ratio calculation unit based on a calculation result of the oxygen output calculation unit and the detection value of the oxygen sensor; and an air-fuel ratio control unit that controls an air-fuel ratio of an air-fuel mixture of an internal combustion engine based on the corrected catalyst downstream exhaust gas equivalence ratio and air-fuel ratio target value.
