A target gas sensor employing a radiation source (20) and a radiation sensor (30) including a reference radiation detector (31), a target radiation detector (32), a temperature sensor (34), a temperature controller (35) and a target gas detection processor (37). In operation, radiation source (20) controls a propagation of radiation (RAD) through a gas mixture (GM) contained by an airway (10) to radiation sensor (30). Reference radiation detector (31) generates a reference detection signal (RD) indicative of a detected magnitude of a reference wavelength (λREF) of the radiation, and target radiation detector (32) generates a target detection signal (TD) indicative of a detected magnitude of a target wavelength (λTG) of the radiation. Temperature sensor (34) senses a temperature of radiation detectors (31, 32) whereby temperature controller (35) regulates a heating of the radiation detectors (31, 32) relative to a regulated detector temperature (TREG). Target gas detection processor (37) measures the target gas concentration within the sample of the gas mixture (GM) as a function of an absorbing spectral response ratio (SRRA) and a temperature compensation (TPC). |
