Abstract
An object is to reduce the influence of a hydrogen-ascribable difference between the measurement value of an oxygen sensor and the actual value. An exhaust system includes an oxygen sensor configured to measure the air-fuel ratio of exhaust gas provided in an exhaust passage of an internal combustion engine and including a diffusion rate limiting layer and a controller configured to correct the measurement value of the oxygen sensor in such a way as to increase the measurement value of the oxygen sensor by an amount of correction that is made larger when the responsivity of the oxygen sensor to changes in the air-fuel ratio of the internal combustion engine is high than when it is low in the same operation state of the internal combustion engine.
