ENGINE SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING AN ENGINE BASED ON AFTERTREATMENT SYSTEM CHARACTERISTICS

Systems and apparatuses include an apparatus including an aftertreatment system control circuit structured to receive a signal indicative of an exhaust gas characteristic from a sensor, determine an aftertreatment system characteristic based on the exhaust gas characteristic, determine an acceptable input value responsive to the aftertreatment system characteristic, and control at least one of a fuel system actuator and an air handling actuator to achieve or substantially achieve the acceptable input value.
