While investigating high-efficiency responsive driveability accompanied by low exhaust emissions, a new concept in engine control has been developed. The method is based on the direct monitoring and controlling of combustion conditions in engines, using a newly developed combustion pressure sensor. Fibre-optic technology is adapted to this sensor to produce a high noise immunity and a simple structure that facilitates applications in automotive engines. A sensing method to obtain information on engine output, knocking or detonation and the combustion temperature from the signal of the combustion pressure sensor has been proposed. A control system for the engine and powertrain control using this sensing method has been put forth to provide a remarkable improvement in engine and powertrain characteristics.
