ABSTRACT:
The signal provided by an accelerometric sensor (S) connected to the engine is monitored in two frequency bands (f1, f2) in which peaks indicative of the presence of pinking (knocking) may appear. The intensity of the signal detected in the second band (f2) is compared (3) with the intensity of the signal detected in the first band (f1). The comparison (20) of the detection-signal component (F1 and/or F2) with the noise component (F3), in view of the emission of the pinking signal (21), is carried out in different ways (8, 13, 14) according to the relative ratios between the above intensities.
