Knock Detection in a Two-Stroke Engine to be Used in the Engine Management System
Engine knock has long been a well recognized phenomenon in the automotive industry. Detecting engine knock opens up the possibility for an indirect feedback of the engine's internal combustion without installing a pressure transducer inside the cylinder. Knock detection has mainly been used for...

Engine knock has long been a well recognized phenomenon in the automotive industry.
