Abstract

In an exhaust gas recirculation control system for an internal combustion engine, intake air at the same pressure as that of a mixed gas flowing in an intake duct 2 and free from the exhaust gas is introduced to a reference air chamber 5 of an oxygen sensor 4. Any detecting errors due to a pressure difference between the mixed gas in the intake duct and the reference gas in the air chamber are thus eliminated.
