Abstract

A method for determining a presence of a particle filter in the exhaust gas tract of a petrol-operated internal combustion engine comprises: determining a measured differential pressure curve from a first pressure curve measured in the exhaust gas tract using a first pressure sensor arranged upstream of an installation position of the particle filter, and a second pressure curve measured using a second pressure sensor arranged downstream of an installation position determining a first result curve with a first low-pass filtration of the measured differential pressure curve; determining a second result curve by means of a second low-pass filtration of the first result curve; determining a first differential result curve by forming the difference between the first result curve and the second result curve; determining a first amount result curve by forming the amount of the first differential result curve; determining an expected differential pressure curve.
