A method is described for monitoring an exhaust aftertreatment system of a combustion engine, with a pressure difference sensor that captures a first pressure difference between a first sampling point and a second sampling point. A second pressure difference between the second sampling point and the environment is captured. A defect is detected based on the second pressure difference.

Method for monitoring an exhaust aftertreatment system of a combustion engine

In a method for monitoring the dynamics of gas sensors of an internal combustion engine, which gas sensors exhibit a low-pass behavior as a function of geometry, measurement principle, aging, or contamination, a dynamics diagnosis is carried out, upon a change in the gas state variable to be measured, on the basis of a comparison between a modeled and a measured signal. The parameters of the low-pass behavior are determined in direction-dependent fashion by minimizing direction-dependent error signals created by high-pass filtering and logical combination with direction-dependent saturation characteristic curves, the direction-dependent error signals being calculated by comparing the modeled and the measured signal for a rising and a falling signal component.

Method and device for dynamic monitoring of gas sensors

A method for adapting a lambda control of an internal combustion engine having an exhaust gas probe disposed in an exhaust gas duct of the internal combustion engine as part of an exhaust gas monitoring system, wherein the adaptation is carried out on the basis of a comparison between a modeled and a measured signal after a predetermined change in the fuel-air ratio of an air-fuel mixture supplied to said internal combustion engine has taken place and wherein the measured signal is an actual value of an output signal of the exhaust gas probe and the modeled signal is a modal value, which is derived from the air-fuel mixture supplied to said internal combustion engine through the use of an exhaust gas model.
