Abstract
A waveform detector detects a variation in fuel pressure generated by an injection based on a detection value of a fuel pressure sensor as a fuel pressure waveform. A differential calculator calculates a differential waveform representing a variation in differential value of the fuel pressure waveform. A noise determiner determines that noise overlaps with the fuel pressure waveform when the differential waveform has a value higher than a predetermined upper threshold or when the differential waveform has a value lower than a predetermined lower threshold.
