Abstract:

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have recently been applied for industrial monitoring, including combustible and flammable gases monitoring. In this work, we present a wireless gas sensor node in which a widely used Wheatstone sensing circuit based on two sensors is exchanged with a single sensor circuit, as well as the associate gas measurement procedure. The core of the measurement procedure is the four-stage heating profile, which enables low power consumption of sensing circuit and thermo compensation adjustment. A thermo compensation algorithm is capable of avoiding the effect of the environmental temperature on the measurements by keeping stable zero-offset within ±1 mV and ensuring low absolute error within 0.1% vol. The thorough design of the sensor node allows it to fit into the 5.5 cm3 packaging, which ensures its true ubiquitous deployment in outdoor and industrial environment.
