Knock intensity behaves as a random process which may be characterized using simple scalar metrics such as the mean and variance, or (more commonly) by the probability of knock events. However, such measures discard much of the information present in the signal. Several researchers have therefore sought to obtain a more complete characterization of the process by fitting parametric log-normal or gamma distribution models to knock intensity distributions. The present study extends this work both in terms of the range of engine operating conditions considered and in terms of the evaluation of the goodness of fit between two different models and the experimental data. In particular, new and arguably more application-appropriate measures of the goodness of fit provide a clearer assessment of the performance of the models, and a like-for-like comparison of log-normal and gamma distribution model forms demonstrates that the log-normal model better characterizes the experimental data used in this study.
