Abstract: The engine system includes: an engine equipped with a supercharger; an electronic throttle device; a low-pressure loop EGR device including an EGR valve; a fresh air introduction device; and an electronic control unit (ECU). The fresh air introduction device includes a fresh air introduction passage and a fresh air introduction valve for introducing fresh air to an intake passage disposed downstream of the electronic throttle device. The electronic throttle device is configured with a DC motor type, and the fresh air introduction valve is configured with a step motor type. Upon determining that the engine is decelerating, the ECU causes the EGR valve to close fully and the fresh air introduction valve to open to a predetermined degree, while also controlling the electronic throttle device to close to a predetermined opening degree, thereby adjusting the total intake amount to the engine.

The controller may be configured to reduce an opening degree of the wastegate valve, reduce an opening degree of a throttle valve, and open the drainage valve.

Abstract: Transmission radars (1-nTX) (nTX=1, 2, . . . , NTX) generate mutually different modulation codes Code(nTX, h) by cyclically shifting the same code sequence by mutually different cyclic shift amounts ??(nTX), and generate mutually different transmission RF signals (4-nTX) using the mutually different modulation codes Code(nTX, h). As a result, the number of transmission radars 1-nTX can be made larger, and target detection accuracy can be made higher than in a case where orthogonal codes are used as mutually different modulation codes.
