A method for controlling an internal combustion engine of a vehicle makes possible an acceleration of the shift operation especially of an automatic transmission or of an automated manually shifted transmission of the vehicle. In a shift operation, an operating state quantity of the engine is pregiven. This operating state quantity can be especially an engine output torque (MDES) or an engine rpm (NMOTDES). Furthermore, a torque reserve (MRES, MRES, MRES) is pregiven for a rapid adjustment of the pregiven operating state quantity.

Method and arrangement for controlling the internal combustion engine of a vehicle

A method and an arrangement control the output quantity (NMOTACT) of a drive unit () of a vehicle. The method and arrangement make possible a time-optimal control strategy especially during a shift operation of the vehicle. The output quantity (NMOTACT) is adjusted with the aid of an adjusting quantity (MDES) and tracks an input value (NMOTDES). In at least one pregiven operating state of the vehicle, the actuating quantity (NMOTDES) is brought to a pregiven limit value (MO, MU) when a pregiven control deviation (dnv) of the output quantity (NMOTACT) is exceeded.
