ABSTRACT:
A method and system for calculating engine speed of a reciprocating internal combustion engine is based upon both the number of engine cylinder events which are either completed or initiated during a predetermined time period, as well as upon the actual time required to complete the recorded number of events. Engine acceleration is determined with reference to the difference in engine speed between successive periods of operation and upon an average of the measured times of successive periods of engine operation.
