It's a type of engine brake used on large diesel engines to assist in slowing them down. It's more commonly called a "Jake brake".

i always had this doubt but i thought just engine "idle" even when u decelerate, i means there is still fuel,little air with spark...

I think you have it right. when you let off the throttle the injectors shut off. there is no gas going into the engine, but the plugs still spark. the only thing moving the engine is momentum.
