Abstract :
A sensor array composed of six discrete gas sensor is used to analyze various gases. Thank to a temperature programming method, the system is able to classify four gases (NH3, H2S, CO and NO) using principal component analysis. Moreover, a quantitative analysis of a gas mixture (CO and NO) is performed with artificial neural networks.
