Abstract

A target gas sensor employing a radiation source (20) and a radiation sensor (30) includes a reference radiation detector (31), a target radiation detector (32), a temperature sensor (34), a temperature controller (35) and a target gas detection processor (37). In operation, radiation source (20) controls a propagation of radiation (RAD) through a gas mixture (GM) contained by an airway (10) to radiation sensor (30). Reference radiation detector (31) generates a reference detection signal (RD) indicative of a detected magnitude of a reference wavelength ([lamda]REF) of the radiation, and target radiation detector (32) generates a target detection signal (TD) indicative of a detected magnitude of a target wavelength ([lamda]TG) of the radiation. Temperature sensor (34) senses a temperature of radiation detectors (31, 32) whereby temperature controller (35) regulates a heating of the radiation detectors (31, 32) relative to a regulated detector temperature (TREG). Target gas detection processor (37) measures the target gas concentration within the sample of the gas mixture (GM) as a function of an absorbing spectral response ratio (SRRA) and a temperature compensation (TPC).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to gas sensors for measuring the concentration of a target gas in a sample of a gas mixture based on absorption spectroscopy, and more particularly to capnography for measuring the concentration of carbon dioxide ("CO2") in a sample of a gas mixture based on absorption spectroscopy. The present invention specifically relates to addressing the significant temperature dependence of spectral response by radiation detectors employed by gas sensors for measuring target gas concentrations in gas mixtures, such as lead selenide ("PbSe") based radiation detectors. sex. Background technique [0002] As known in the art, a radiation detector is any device for converting electromagnetic radiation into electrical signals. Many types of radiation detectors have a temperature-dependent spectral response, and gas sensors employ such radiation detectors to perform absorption spectroscopy for measuring the concentration of a spe...
