An spark ignition type internal combustion engine allows the spark discharge by the ignition plug to react with the electric field created in the combustion chamber and generates the plasma, thereby igniting the fuel air mixture to reduce the emission of the unburned fuel and to improve fuel efficiency of the internal combustion engine in a spark ignition type internal combustion engine that allows an electric field created in a combustion chamber to react with a spark discharge by an ignition plug and generates plasma, thereby igniting fuel air mixture. The engine includes an electromagnetic wave emission device that emits an electromagnetic wave in the combustion chamber when the fuel air mixture is combusted, and a protruding member protruding from a partitioning surface that partitions the combustion chamber. At least a part of the protruding member is made of a conductor.

It is configured such that plasma generated at a time of ignition should diffuse over an entire combustion chamber in a spark ignition type internal combustion engine in order to improve fuel efficiency. An ignition device for a spark ignition type internal combustion engine is provided including an ignition plug and a transmission antenna provided in the vicinity of the ignition plug and adapted to transmit an electromagnetic wave to a combustion chamber. The ignition device allows a spark discharge generated between a central electrode and a ground electrode of the ignition plug to react with an electric field created via the transmission antenna in the combustion chamber so as to generate plasma and ignite fuel air mixture. A receiving antenna is arranged on a combustion chamber-facing surface of at least one of an intake valve and an exhaust valve, and is adapted to receive the electromagnetic wave transmitted from the transmission antenna.

A method for control of spark ignition in a spark-ignited internal combustion engine that includes an ignition plug and generates plasma to ignite an air-fuel mixture, where the plasma is caused by a reaction between a product resulting from spark discharge generated by a high voltage applied via an ignition coil connected to the ignition plug and an electric field generated in a combustion chamber by an electric generation means via the ignition plug, the method including generating the electric field by a positive pulsating current. Thus, the method allows a spark-ignited internal combustion engine to promote expansion of combustion after ignition.

Provided is a method for determining a combustion state of a spark-ignited internal combustion engine including an ignition plug to ignite a fuel-air mixture by a plasma generated by a reaction between a spark discharge generated by a high voltage applied through an ignition coil connected to the ignition plug and an electric field generated in a combustion chamber. In the method, a change in a secondary voltage secondarily generated in the ignition plug after the spark discharge in association with the spark discharge is detected. A case where the change in the detected secondary voltage deviates from a predetermined range is determined as an occurrence of misfire. This enables detection of a misfire state without being hindered from an ion current due to the plasma remaining in the combustion chamber.
