Multiple fuel injection systems and methods

A system for a vehicle, comprising:

• a desired pulse width module that determines a desired length of a single pulse of fuel for a combustion cycle of a cylinder of an engine;
• a multiple pulses module that determines a number of pulses (N) for the combustion cycle, wherein N is an integer greater than 1;
• a fraction determination module that determines N fractional values for the N pulses, respectively;
• an injector control module that, generates individual lengths for the N pulses based on the N fractional values, respectively, and based on the desired length;
• and
• a fuel actuator module that opens a fuel injector that injects fuel into the cylinder during the combustion cycle in N pulses having the individual lengths, respectively.
