Abstract: A method for transmitting the cylinder pressure data of a plurality of cylinder pressure sensors to a central processing unit, characterized by the use of a communication system for isochronous data transmission comprising a data bus, whereby the plurality of cylinder pressure sensors and the central processing unit are connected via the data bus, whereby each of the plurality of cylinder pressure sensors are combined with a data acquisition unit and a data communication unit to form a measurement node, whereby the cylinder pressure data is transmitted from the measurement node to the central processing unit via a time-slot method.

Abstract: A method of controlling an internal combustion engine having a plurality of cylinders, in particular a stationary internal combustion engine, wherein actuators of the internal combustion engine are actuable in crank angle-dependent relationship and/or sensor signals of the internal combustion engine can be ascertained in crank angle-dependent relationship, for compensation of a torsion of a crankshaft, by which torsion deviations in the crank angle occur between a twisted and an untwisted condition of the crankshaft, wherein for at least two of the cylinders a cylinder-individual value of the angle deviation is ascertained and the crank angle-dependent actuator or sensor signals are corrected in dependence on the detected angle deviation.
