ABSTRACT:
An air-fuel ratio control apparatus for an internal combustion engine which is equipped with an air-fuel ratio sensor for sensing an actual air-fuel ratio of a mixture to be introduced into the engine and a target air-fuel ratio setting section for setting a target air-fuel ratio of the engine. Also included is a controlled-amount calculating section for setting an optimal feedback gain on the basis of a predetermined dynamic model of the engine to calculate a controlled amount in accordance with the predetermined optimal feedback gain so that the actual air-fuel ratio becomes equal to the target air-fuel ratio. A fuel supply amount to the engine is determined on the basis of the calculated controlled amount, and the control responsiveness of the controlled-amount calculating section is suppressed when the engine is in a speed-decreasing state. This arrangement can adequately control the air-fuel ratio of the engine irrespective of the engine speed-decreasing state.
