1. A method for controlling a combustion in a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, comprising the steps of:

  • detecting, with at least one knock sensor, a cylinder-specific knocking signal for each cylinder of the internal combustion engine;

    transmitting the detected knocking signal to an evaluation circuit;

    reconstructing, in the evaluation circuit, a combustion chamber pressure characteristic as a function of the detected knocking signal; and

    evaluating the reconstructed combustion chamber pressure characteristic for controlling a next combustion in the cylinder.
