Abstract

A system and method of utilizing a pre-turbine wide-range oxygen (WRO2) sensor during both individual cylinder fuel control (ICFC) and scavenging of a turbocharged engine involve receiving, by a controller and from the WRO2 sensor arranged in an exhaust system of the engine at a point upstream of a turbine of a turbocharger of the engine, an unfiltered WRO2 signal indicative of a fuel/air (FA) ratio of exhaust gas produced by the engine, performing, by the controller, ICFC by controlling the engine using the unfiltered WRO2 signal, performing, by the controller, engine cycle average filtering of the WRO2 signal to obtain a filtered WRO2 signal, and, while the engine is scavenging, performing, by the controller, engine FA ratio and emissions control using the filtered WRO2 signal.
