Abstract
Methods and systems for an engine controller are described. In one example, the engine controller includes a reference control system and a disturbance rejection control system. The engine controller avoids use of integral feedback in the reference control system, while permitting integral feedback in the disturbance rejection control system, to improve controller response without unduly increasing engine pumping work.
