Abstract
This study deals with how modern control theory can be applied to automotive engine control. Appropriate models are indispensable in the application of modern control theory, the present study achieves engine modeling using physical and statistical approaches. Also, for a concrete application of modern control theory, the present focus is on a torque servo engine, because torque is the output most necessary for an engine. Modern control techniques are used to control a torque servo engine to obtain the most fuel-saving operation possible. It is found that a high potential could be achieved compared with conventional control methods.Keywords
