Abstract

A method for operating an internal combustion engine. The method includes detecting a structure borne sound signal in a time-dependent manner for the at least one combustion chamber during operation of the internal combustion engine, and determining, in a predetermined measuring window, at least one evaluation parameter from the detected structure borne sound signal. The method also includes obtaining at least one comparative result by comparing the at least one evaluation parameter with at least one predetermined comparison value, and assigning to the structure borne sound signal, on the basis of the at least one comparative result, one of a knocking event in the at least one combustion chamber and an interference signal.
