Abstract: The present specification discloses a diagnosis system and an optimum control unit for an internal combustion engine. The basic concept of the present invention resides in that a random retrieved signal of which auto correlation function is an impulse shape is superposed on a signal of an internal combustion engine, said superposed signal is used to measure a change of an operation state of the internal combustion engine, and an optimum direction of a control value is detected by a correlation between said measured value and retrieved signal.

Abstract: An engine controller equipped with a device for judging occurrence of knocking of the engine, having a sensor for sampling a vibration based on an internal pressure vibration arisen in a cylinder of the engine and a knocking detecting means for judging the occurrence of the knocking by obtaining at least two frequencies contained in an output from the sensor, obtaining a knocking judgement index from two vibration power factors corresponding to the two frequencies and comparing the knocking judgement index with a threshold value. As being judged from the knocking judgement index, the occurrence of the knocking is accurately detected when the background vibration is great at the time of the high load high speed operation.
