Abstract
An engine system for a vehicle includes an internal combustion engine having an exhaust gas outlet, an exhaust system having a three-way catalyst and a switch-type post oxygen sensor, and an engine control module that controls the engine system. The engine control module includes a first control logic for estimating a three-way catalyst oxygen storage capacity based on a plurality of measured inputs, a second control logic for estimating aging effects of the switch-type post oxygen sensor, and a third control logic that calculates a filtered estimated three-way catalyst oxygen storage capacity for the three-way catalyst.
