Higher-Order Statistics for Fluctuation-Enhanced Gas-Sensing
نویسنده
چکیده
The stochastic component of a chemical sensor signal contains valuable information that can be visualized not only by spectral analysis but also by methods of higher-order statistics (HOS). The analysis of HOS enables the extraction of non-conventional features and may lead to significant improvements in selectivity and sensitivity. We pay particular attention to the bispectrum that characterizes the non-Gaussian component and detects non-stationarity in analyzed noise. The results suggest that the bispectrum can be applied for gas recognition. The analysis of bispectra and the reproducibility statistics of skewness and kurtosis indicate that the measured time records were stationary.

TiO2 based surface acoustic wave gas sensor with modified electrode dimensions for enhanced H2 sensing application
The design and optimization of nanostructure-based surface acoustic wave (SAW) gas sensor is analyzed based on TiO2 sensing layer and modified electrode dimensions. The sensitivity of the gas sensor depends upon the type of sensing layer used and active surface area obtained by varying the aspect ratio. The performance of the sensor is observed from 0.1ppm to 100ppm concentration of ...
متن کاملFluctuation Enhanced Gas Sensing at Modulated Temperature of Gas Sensor
Taguchi gas sensors are commonly used sensors to measure gas concentration. The detection method utilizes only sensor DC resistance changes for determination of various gases concentration. Unfortunately, such technique leads to false results due to cross-sensitivity of gas sensors at presence of other gases. Such adverse effects can be reduced by applying fluctuation enhanced sensing and tempe...

Resistive gas sensors are very popular and reliable but suffer from low selectivity and sensitivity. Various methods have been suggested to improve both features without increasing the number of sensors in gas detection systems. Fluctuation enhanced gas sensing was proposed to improve gas detection efficiency by analyzing low-frequency resistance fluctuations, and noise parameters can be more i...
