ABSTRACT:
A method for processing knock-related data reduces the memory locations required for the method and also simplify the processing steps needed to determine a sum, average, and threshold value relating to magnitudes of knock ratios. Inputs from either pressure sensor or accelerometers are filtered and then used to form a ratio between a knock portion of a curve and a reference portion. Sequential magnitudes of the knock ratio are received and analyzed in a manner that reduces required memory locations and improves processing speed.
