In this study, a new knocking control algorithm was developed using the knock threshold value auto-correction algorithm. This algorithm uses the Fast Fourier Transform9FFT) method by measuring cylinder block vibration signals of a 1498 cc four-cylinder spark ignition engine. The experimental results show the proposed knock control algorithm provides improved performance compared to existing methods. The results also show that the proposed FFT algorithm provides real-time adjustment of the knock threshold value.
