Abstract
Knocking and pre-ignition are identified, without contributing to pre-ignition, even when vibration magnitudes and timings of occurrence of the knocking and pre-ignition are the same. When detecting an abnormal combustion that cannot be identified as a knocking or pre-ignition, ignition timing is advanced, at which time knocking is identified when an abnormal combustion intensity increases, and pre-ignition is identified when a difference between ignition timing and abnormal combustion occurrence timing increases.
