An internal combustion engine includes a three-way catalyst provided in an exhaust path, an upstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor provided on the exhaust upstream side of the three-way catalyst, and a downstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor provided on the exhaust downstream side of the three-way catalyst. The CPU executes a correction process of making a correction of addressing an output deviation of the upstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor based on an output of the upstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor and an output of the downstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor in a case where the output of the downstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor indicates a value near the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio during the execution of air-fuel ratio control of controlling the air-fuel ratio of an air-fuel mixture based on the output of the upstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor such that the air-fuel ratio of the air-fuel mixture is an air-fuel ratio near the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio.
A control device for an internal combustion engine including a three-way catalyst provided in an exhaust path, an upstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor provided on an exhaust upstream side of the three-way catalyst, and a downstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor provided on an exhaust downstream side of the three-way catalyst, the control device being configured to be applied to the internal combustion engine, wherein the control device is configured to execute a correction process of making a correction of addressing an output deviation of the upstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor based on an output of the upstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor and an output of the downstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor in a case where the output of the downstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor indicates a value near a stoichiometric air-fuel ratio during execution of air-fuel ratio control of controlling an air-fuel ratio of an air-fuel mixture based on the output of the upstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor such that the air-fuel ratio of the air-fuel mixture is an air-fuel ratio near the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio.
