Abstract

An in-cylinder pressure sensor outputs a signal corresponding to a change rate of an internal cylinder pressure of an engine. The output signal of the in-cylinder pressure sensor is filtered so that frequency components lower than frequencies that substantially compose an internal cylinder pressure required for controlling the engine are cut. The filtered output signal is integrated to determine the internal cylinder pressure. Thus, an internal cylinder pressure having no drift can be determined.
