Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of gas detection, and more specifically to the field of methane gas detection. In particular, it relates to a methane gas concentration detection algorithm and its integrated laser methane detection device. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional methane detection methods primarily utilize carrier catalysis, pyroelectricity, and infrared principles. Carrier catalysis-based methane detection suffers from susceptibility to other gases, narrow detection range, and poor stability. Pyroelectric methane detection is highly susceptible to ambient temperature fluctuations, has low accuracy, and poor stability. Infrared methane detection is prone to interference from alkane gases, is greatly affected by water vapor, and exhibits poor stability. Compared to traditional methane detection, laser-based methane detection offers advantages such as high measurement sensitivity, good stability, and strong anti-interference capabilities, and is increasingly being applied to methane concentration detection in environments such as coal mines and urban utility tunnels. However, current laser-based methane sensors generally employ fiber optic transmission or multiple spatial reflections, resulting in large size, high power consumption, and poor measurement stability.
[0003] A search of the Chinese patent database revealed over 360 patents related to laser methane and laser gas detection. For example, CN200520071347.1, "Optical Structure of an Online Monitoring Instrument for Atmospheric Methane Concentration Based on Laser Absorption Spectroscopy," proposes a spatial multiple-reflection cavity structure, which suffers from large size and complex structure. CN201620380595.2, "A Methane Detection Device for Mining Based on TDLAS," proposes a fiber optic transmission laser methane detection device, which also suffers from large size and complex structure. CN202110178920.2, "Laser Gas Detector and Laser Gas Detection System," proposes a gas detector designed with a large-aperture through-beam optical system. CN202122826683.4, "A Non-Contact Laser Methane Sensor," is a utility model patent that proposes a structural design applicable to coal mine drainage pipelines. The vast majority of these are utility model patent applications related to laser methane sensors; there are currently no applications for highly integrated miniaturized laser gas detection devices and optimized detection algorithms.
[0004] In view of this, the present invention is hereby proposed. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to address the issues of large size, high power consumption, low measurement sensitivity, poor stability, and weak anti-interference in existing methane detection devices.
[0006] The inventive concept of the present application is: adopting an MCU signal processing circuit module with multi-channel AD and DA functions, the AD function converts the analog signal with a gas absorption signal into a digital signal, the DA function converts the laser driver digital signal stored in the chip into an analog signal to drive the laser to emit laser of a specific wavelength. Through the absorption of the laser specific wavelength light wave by the methane gas, the laser of the specific wavelength emitted by the laser is modulated by light absorption, and then converted into an electrical signal by a PD photodetector, amplified by a preamplifier circuit, and then processed by the MCU signal processing circuit. The methane gas concentration in the environment is obtained by inversion. The optimized detection algorithm is combined to integrate the gas path, optical path, circuit, and structure of the laser methane detector in one. The non-airtight packaging components are used for dustproof, waterproof, and shockproof protection. The gas diffusion channel of the non-airtight packaging component is used as the gas path. The optical channel cavity structure is made on the component mounting surface of the optical module base to form the optical path. The internal optical components, optoelectronic devices, and semiconductor components are assembled without leads to form a highly integrated laser methane detector integrating the gas path, optical path, circuit, and structure, so as to realize the high integration, low power consumption, and high stability of the laser methane device, thereby solving the problems of large volume, high power consumption, and poor measurement stability of most existing laser methane sensors. It will play an important role in promoting the wide application of laser methane devices in coal mines and urban pipe corridors.
[0007] Therefore, the present application provides a methane gas concentration laser detection algorithm as shown in Figure 3 . The specific algorithm is as follows:

[0012] (5) Harmonic signal extraction: the digital signal Q is multiplied by the laser sine wave driving signal F1(Y) (as a reference signal) and its second harmonic signal F2(Y) respectively, to obtain the first harmonic signal W1=F1(Y) x Q and the second harmonic signal W2=F2(Y) x Q;
[0013] (6) Digital low-pass filtering: the second harmonic signal W2 is convolved with a low-pass filtering function F(Z) to obtain the digital signal E after removing the high-frequency scanning signal. E1=F(Z)*W1, E2=F(Z)*W2, after high-pass and low-pass digital filtering, only the signal corresponding to the frequency of the laser driving signal is retained;

[0016] (9) Multi-point smoothing filtering of adjacent points for concentration signal C: the gas concentration signal value C obtained by solving is subjected to multi-point averaging filtering of adjacent points to remove the maximum and minimum values, and the average value is obtained to improve the stability of the measurement.
[0017] (10) True gas concentration: by introducing a standard methane gas sample, the corresponding concentration value and concentration signal value C are recorded to obtain a calibration function F(C), and then the concentration of methane gas in the environment is obtained by combining the concentration signal C obtained by solving with the calibration function F(C).
[0018] (11) Temperature compensation: the temperature change of the environment will affect the absorption rate of methane gas to light waves. The correlation function F(C, T) of temperature T and concentration signal value C is obtained by fitting a large amount of experimental test data, the concentration signal C is compensated for temperature, to obtain the compensated concentration signal C'=F(C, T), to eliminate the influence of environmental temperature change on the measurement;

The average value is obtained by using high-frequency repeated sampling at each sampling point to eliminate the white noise of the circuit and improve the accuracy of the measurement.
[0062] (3) The digital signal P 均 is convoluted with the high-pass filter function F(X) to obtain the digital signal Q after the low-frequency scanning signal is removed. The high-pass filter function F(X) is a FIR filter function, and the specific function value is designed according to the laser sawtooth wave scanning frequency.
[0063] (4) The digital signal Q is multiplied with the laser sinusoidal wave driving signal F1(Y) (as a reference signal) and its second frequency doubling signal F2(Y) respectively to obtain the first harmonic signal W1 and the second harmonic signal W2.
[0064] (5) The second harmonic signal W2 is convoluted with the low-pass filter function F(Z) to obtain the digital signal E after the high-frequency scanning signal is removed.

The methane gas concentration value C in the environment has a one-to-one positive linear relationship with ΣE2(N, M) / ΣE1(N, M), and the gas concentration C in the environment can be solved by fitting the calibration function.
[0067] (8) The gas concentration signal value C obtained by solving is subjected to multiple average filtering of adjacent points to remove the maximum and minimum values to obtain the average value to improve the stability of the measurement.
[0068] (9) The standard methane gas sample is introduced, the corresponding concentration value and signal value C are recorded, the calibration function F(C) is obtained, and then the methane gas concentration in the environment is obtained by combining the solved signal C with the calibration function F(C).

The correlation function F(C, T) of the temperature T and the concentration signal value C is obtained by fitting a large amount of experimental test data, and the temperature compensation is performed according to the detected temperature T of the actual environment, so as to eliminate the influence of the temperature change of the environment on the measurement.
[0070] (11) In practical application, the gas pressure change of the environment will also affect the absorption rate of the methane gas to the light wave.
