The Optical Simulation and Optimization of Gas Detection System Based on Correlation Spectroscopy Technology

According to the detection principle of infrared gas sensor based on correlation spectroscopy technology,with the chamber of the system in which the infrared light reacted to the gas as the research object,the best locations of the ideal infrared Lambert light sources were simulated and analyzed in different type reflectors using the optical design professional software Tracepro in this paper.By establishing the mathematical model of the optical transmission system,the optical power output of the chamber under different structural dimensions and the effect on the performance of sensing system of the chamber wall reflectivity were simulated and optimized.Based on the theoretical model,the optimal parameter combination of the chamber model was determined according to the simulation results.The experimental results show that the signal amplitude of the detector can be significantly increased through proper optimization and modifications in the position of infrared light source,reflector type,length and other parts of the chamber,which will be conducive to the subsequent process of signal amplification,digital-analog conversion,etc.,and this can thereby enhance the sensitivity and accuracy of the system in gas detection.
