    The present invention relates to a method for operating a gas sensor device. The invention further relates to a gas sensor device.
    State of the art
    [0002] To monitor the air quality in buildings, gas sensors can be installed which carry out measurements at regular intervals. Gas sensors measure changes in physical or chemical parameters depending on the surrounding medium. For example, a gas sensor with a field effect transistor is known from DE 10 2008 054752 A1, with the gases to be detected diffusing into a gas-sensitive layer, which causes a change in potential at the field effect transistor. By measuring the currents or voltages at the outputs of the field effect transistor, conclusions can be drawn about the type and properties of the surrounding gas.
    Depending on the components of the surrounding gas, the electrical resistance of the sensitive layer can change due to adsorption. By measuring the electrical resistance value, conclusions can be drawn about the concentration of the reducing or oxidizing gases, the humidity and the ambient temperature. This makes it possible to measure changes in air quality.
    Since, in particular, volatile organic compounds only cause measurable changes in concentration at higher temperatures of around 300 to 400 degrees, the sensitive layer is heated up during or before the measurements.
    [0005] In order to obtain comparable measurement results, the time intervals between different measurements are usually constant. To save energy, a measurement is only carried out every 5 minutes, for example. During the rest period in between, the sensitive layer is not heated. However, it is often desirable to be able to insert additional measurements. For example, a user may open a window and want to measure the impact on air quality. It will generally not be reasonable for the user to have to wait up to 5 minutes. However, the chemical state of the sensitive layer of the gas sensor at the time of the additional measurement will differ from the chemical state at the end of a regular rest period, which makes it difficult to compare the measurement results.
    Disclosure of Invention
    The invention provides a method for operating a gas sensor device with the features of patent claim 1 and a gas sensor device with the features of patent claim 7 ready.
    The invention relates to a method for operating a gas sensor device, the gas sensor device having at least one gas-sensitive electrical sensor resistor, heating means for controlled heating of the sensor resistor, detection means for detecting the resistance value of the sensor resistor, and signal processing means for processing measurement signals. Measurements are carried out at intervals in which the resistance value of the sensor resistor is recorded as a measurement signal. The sensor resistance is heated for each measurement, with the heating means being operated discontinuously at heating intervals and a heating interval being assigned to each measurement. Measurements are carried out automatically at definable time intervals, with additional measurements being able to be initiated at any desired time. The duration of the heating intervals assigned to the individual measurements is chosen depending on the time interval from the previous heating interval.
    [0008] In this case, the sensor resistance is heated to a predeterminable operating temperature at least in the heating intervals associated with a measurement. The operating temperature is preferably constant, i. H. identical for all measurements. As a result, comparable measurement conditions can be achieved.
    [0009] Furthermore, the resistance value of the sensor resistor during the heating interval associated with the measurement is recorded as a measurement signal. The resistance value can be measured during the heating interval itself or shortly after the heating interval, but is preferably determined at the end of the heating interval, which saves energy since unnecessary heating is avoided.
    In addition, the duration of the heating intervals assigned to the individual measurements is selected as a function of the time interval from the respective preceding heating interval such that the same measurement signal is essentially detected during measurements under essentially constant ambient conditions. Due to the fact that the measuring conditions are always the same, the measured resistance values can be compared with one another, regardless of whether an additional measurement takes place or not.
    In addition, the dependency of the duration of the heating intervals on the time interval from the respective preceding heating interval is determined on the basis of calibration measurements, which are carried out in a calibration step under essentially constant ambient conditions. If the ambient conditions change, the comparability of the measured resistance values can be ensured again by adjusting the duration of the heating intervals.
    According to a second aspect, the invention relates to a gas sensor device with at least one gas-sensitive electrical sensor resistor, with heating means for controlled heating of the sensor resistor, with detection means for detecting the resistance value of the sensor resistor, with signal processing means for processing signals and with a control device for activating the heating means , the detection means and the signal processing means for carrying out automatic and externally initiated measurements, the control device being equipped with at least one interface for receiving external control signals.
    The invention further relates to a gas sensor device with a. at least one gas-sensitive electrical sensor resistor (2); b. with heating means (3) for controlled heating of the sensor resistor (2); c. with detection means (5) for detecting the resistance value of the sensor resistor (2); i.e. with signal processing means (10) for processing measurement signals; and e. with a control device (4) for controlling the heating means, the detection means (5) and the signal processing means (10) for carrying out automatic and externally initiated measurements, the control device being equipped with at least one interface for receiving external control signals, the sensor resistance can be heated by the heating means (3) to a predeterminable operating temperature at least in the heating intervals assigned to a measurement; the detection means (5) are set up to detect the resistance value of the sensor resistor during the heating interval assigned to the measurement at the end of this heating interval as a measurement signal; the control device (4) is set up to select the duration of the heating intervals assigned to the individual measurements as a function of the time interval from the respectively preceding heating interval, so that essentially the same measurement signal can be detected during measurements under essentially constant ambient conditions; and the control device (4) is set up to determine the dependency of the duration of the heating intervals on the time interval from the respectively preceding heating interval on the basis of calibration measurements which can be carried out in a calibration step under essentially constant ambient conditions.
    Preferred embodiments are the subject matter of the respective dependent patent claims.
    Advantages of the Invention
    The invention makes it possible to carry out additional measurements between two automatic measurements. If, for example, a user would like to know the influence of certain actions on the air quality, the corresponding information can be made available to him immediately by carrying out an additional measurement. The user does not have to wait until the next automatic measurement, but can get the desired information immediately.
    [0015] In order to nevertheless achieve comparable measurement results, the duration of the heating intervals assigned to the individual measurements is adjusted or shortened. If, for example, the additional measurement is to be carried out shortly after a preceding automatic measurement, the chemical state of the gas-sensitive electrical sensor resistance has not yet reached the state of equilibrium at the end of a regular rest period between two automatic measurements. However, by dynamically adjusting the duration of the heating interval associated with the additional measurement, the sensor resistor is preferably only heated until a chemical state is reached which substantially corresponds to the chemical state of the sensor resistor at the end of a regular heating interval, i . H. at the end of a heating interval assigned to an automatic measurement if no additional measurement is carried out.
    Conversely, if the additional measurement is carried out shortly before a subsequent automatic measurement, the sensor resistance can be heated during the subsequent automatic heating interval by dynamically adjusting the duration of the heating interval to which the subsequent automatic measurement is assigned until the chemical state of the sensor resistance again corresponds to the chemical state after the end of an automatic heating interval without a previous additional measurement.
    [0017] The comparability of the measurements can be ensured by the dynamic adjustment or reduction of the heating times.
    [0018] According to a preferred development of the method, the automatic measurements are carried out at regular, predetermined, in particular equal, time intervals, regardless of whether an additional measurement is initiated. The automatic measurements thus take place at fixed times which are not dependent on the existence of an additional measurement. The time intervals between two automatic measurements can preferably be constant, amounting to about 5 minutes.
    [0019] According to a preferred development of the method, the automatic measurements are carried out at regular, predetermined, in particular equal, time intervals until an additional measurement is initiated. The next automatic measurement after an additional measurement has been initiated is carried out at a time interval which corresponds to the regular predetermined time interval between two automatic measurements, unless at least one further additional measurement is initiated beforehand. The distance between an additional measurement and a subsequent automatic measurement is thus identical to the distance which would have been set between this subsequent automatic measurement and the previous measurement in the absence of the additional measurement. The additional measurement thus leads to a shift in the times of the automatic measurements. Since the interval between the additional measurement and the subsequent automatic measurement corresponds to a regular time interval, only an adjustment of the duration of the heating interval, which is associated with the additional measurement, is required. The duration of the heating interval associated with the subsequent automatic measurement does not need to be adjusted.
    The calibration step preferably includes at least one measurement as a reference measurement and at least one calibration measurement at a definable time interval. For each calibration measurement, the sensor resistance is heated up at least until the resistance value of the sensor resistance corresponds to the resistance value of the reference measurement. For each calibration measurement, the time it takes for the resistance value of the reference measurement to be reached and the time interval from the previous heating interval are recorded as calibration data.
    The calibration step can be optionally activated. An initial calibration can thus be carried out at the factory after production of the gas sensor device under specified environmental conditions, for example in a clean room, in order to determine the relationship between the duration of the heating intervals assigned to the individual measurements and the time interval from the previous heating interval. This relationship can then be stored in a look-up table. During operation, the duration of the heating intervals can be determined using the look-up table. It is also possible for a user to activate the calibration step, for example if the gas sensor device is exposed to changed environmental conditions.
    [0022] According to a preferred development of the method, the calibration step is automatically activated when a substantially identical measurement signal has been detected in a predetermined number of consecutive automatic measurements. A constant measurement signal is an indication that the influence of changes in the environmental conditions can be neglected. The essentially constant measurement signal can thus be used as a reference measurement.
    The general dependency of the duration of a heating interval assigned to an individual measurement can be determined by interpolating the values determined in the calibration step. For example, the time difference between two automatic measurements, such as 300 seconds, can be divided into a plurality of smaller time differences, such as one second, two seconds, or five seconds in duration. An additional measurement is now carried out between a first and a second automatic measurement after the smaller time difference, ie for example after one second, and the duration of the corresponding heating interval is determined. A further additional measurement is carried out between the second automatic measurement time and a subsequent third automatic measurement time after twice the smaller time difference, ie for example after two seconds, and the duration of the corresponding heating interval is again determined. The durations of the corresponding heating intervals are thus determined successively for different time differences between an automatic measurement and an additional measurement. The general dependency can be determined by interpolation.
    [0024] According to a development of the method, a plausibility check of the determined dependency can be carried out. For example, the obtained dependency of the duration of the heating intervals on the time intervals can be discarded if the durations of the heating intervals do not increase steadily with the time interval. In other words, the dependence of the durations of the heating intervals that is obtained is only used to determine the corresponding durations of the heating intervals if the duration of the heating intervals is a constantly increasing function of the increasing time interval. Otherwise, the previous dependency is retained. The reason is that the heating time required to reach the desired chemical state increases with increasing time difference from a previous automatic measurement. If this behavior is not reproduced, the measurements may not be correct, for example because the environmental conditions have changed in the meantime.
    [0025] According to a preferred development, the duration of a heating interval, which is assigned to a measurement, is adjusted precisely if the time interval from the previous heating interval falls below a predetermined first threshold value.

    Description of the exemplary embodiments
    FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of a gas sensor device 1a according to an embodiment of the invention. The gas sensor device 1a has a gas-sensitive electrical sensor resistor 2, which can be formed, for example, as a layer with metal oxide semiconductor materials, such as tin oxide SnO 2 or zinc oxide ZnO. However, the sensor resistor 2 does not necessarily have to be in the form of a layer.
    The gas sensor device 1a further has heating means 3, which is designed to heat the sensor resistor 2. For this purpose, the sensor resistor 2 can be heated to temperatures between 200 and 500 degrees and preferably between 300 and 400 degrees. Furthermore, the gas sensor device 1a includes detection means 5 which measure an electrical resistance value R of the sensor resistor 2 .
    In order to save energy, the sensor resistor 2 is not heated continuously, but instead the heating means 3 and the detection means 5 are controlled by means of a control device 4 of the gas sensor device 1a in such a way that at regular heating times, the sensor resistor 2 is heated for a heating interval and a subsequent measurement of the resistance value R can be carried out by the detection means 5. The resistance value is preferably measured at a measurement time at the end of each heating interval. The resistance values R are recorded by signal processing means 10 together with the corresponding measurement times as a measurement signal.
    As illustrated in FIG. 2, at the respective heating times t1 to t6, the sensor resistor 2 is heated by means of the heating means 3 during the respective heating intervals P1 to P6. A time difference W between two consecutive heating times t1 to t6 is preferably constant. The resistance value is measured at the end of a heating interval P1 to P6, so that the time interval between two consecutive measurements corresponds to the time difference W between two consecutive heating times t1 to t6. If the gas sensor device 1a is used to monitor room air quality, the time difference W can be between one and 10 minutes, for example. The time difference W is preferably 300 seconds. The duration T1 of the heating intervals P1 to P6 is also constant and is between one and five seconds, for example. For example, the duration T1 of the heating intervals can be 1.92 seconds.
    The resistance value R measured at the end of each heating interval P is also illustrated in FIG. If the environmental conditions of the gas sensor do not change, then the corresponding resistance values R1 to R6 are essentially the same.
    With changing environmental conditions, the resistance value R will change. The signal processing means 10 determine the presence of specific chemical components, or more generally the humidity or air quality, based on the measured resistance value or based on the change in the resistance value.
    The control device 4 is designed to receive a signal for carrying out an additional measurement. For this purpose, the control device 4 can have a user interface, so that a user can request an additional measurement directly at the gas sensor device 1a. However, the control device 4 can also communicate with other external devices via a wireless interface and can receive the signal for carrying out the additional measurement from the external devices.
    Based on the signal, the control device 4 controls the heating means 3 and the detection means 5, so that at an extra heating time t7, t8 the sensor resistor 2 is additionally heated for the duration of an additional heating interval, with the extra heating time t7, t8 between two regular heating times t1 until t6 lies. The extra heating point in time t7, t8 can take place immediately or a predetermined time after the user input or after the signal has been received. At the end of each additional heating interval, an additional measurement is carried out by the detection means 5, with the signal processing means 10 detecting the resistance value of the sensor resistor 2 together with the time of the additional measurement as a measurement signal.
    FIG. 3 illustrates how the resistance value R would change if the duration T2 of the heating intervals Z1, Z2 were not adjusted at the respective extra heating times t7, t8, i. H. equal to the duration T1 of the automatic heating interval P1 to P6 would be chosen. In this case, the sensor resistor 2 is heated for too long, so that the resistance value R7, R8 under constant ambient conditions is higher than the resistance value R1, R2 for regular measurements without additional measurements. Furthermore, the disruption of the chemical equilibrium caused by the additional measurements also affects the subsequent automatic heating intervals P3, P5, P6, so that the measured resistance values R3, R5, R6 are also too high there.
    According to the invention, therefore, the duration T2 of the heating intervals is adjusted by the control device 4 at the specified extra heating time t7. As shown in FIG. 4, the duration T2 is reduced such that, under constant ambient conditions, the resistance value R7 measured at the end of the additional heating interval Z1 is identical to the resistance value R1 to R6 at the end of the automatic heating intervals P1 to P6.
    The adjustment is preferably made when a time difference d1, d2 measured by the control device 4 between the extra heating point in time t7, t8 and the preceding heating interval P2, P4 is less than a predetermined threshold value. Otherwise, the duration T2 is chosen to be equal to the duration T1 of the regular heating intervals P1 to P6.
    A duration T3 of a regular heating interval P3, P5 following an extra heating time t7, t8 is also adjusted if a time difference between the extra heating time t7, t8 and the subsequent regular extra heating time t3, t5 is less than a predetermined threshold value. Otherwise, the duration T3 is chosen to be equal to the duration T1 of the regular heating intervals P1 to P6. The duration T3 is set by the control device 4 in such a way that the resistance value R5 measured at the end of the heating interval P5 is equal to the constant resistance value R1, R2 at the end of the further regular heating intervals P1, P2.
    In the scenario illustrated in FIG. 4, the duration T2 of the additional heating interval Z1 is adjusted for the extra heating time t7, but the duration of the subsequent heating interval P3 is not adjusted. Furthermore, the subsequent heating interval P5 is adjusted for the extra heating time t8, but the additional heating interval Z2 itself is not adjusted. Depending on the time differences d1 to d4, however, the durations of both heating intervals Z1, Z2 or P3, P5 or the durations of neither of the two heating intervals Z1, Z2 or P3, P5 can be adjusted.
    [0041] Furthermore, the heating times which follow an additional measurement can be adjusted. According to further embodiments, heating intervals which are not linked to any measurements can also occur.
    The control device 4 can adjust the duration T2 of the heating intervals Z1, Z2 as a function of a time difference d from the previous heating interval P2, P4 using a look-up table.
    In Figure 5, an exemplary relationship between the duration T2 of the heating intervals Z1, Z2 and the time difference d is shown. In order to generate this relationship, the resistance value R of the sensor resistor 2 is continuously measured by means of the detection means 5, with the ambient conditions being kept constant. Without extra measurements, the resistance value R assumes a constant value R0 at the end of the regular heating intervals P1 to P6. For a predetermined time difference d, the heating means 3 are then switched off, i. H. the heating of the sensor resistor 2 ends if the resistance value R is equal to the constant value R0. The corresponding duration T2 of the heating interval Z1, Z2 is registered and assigned to the time difference d. The relationship illustrated in Figure 5 can be determined by repeated execution for different time differences d. The measurement results determined can preferably be interpolated in order to obtain a continuous relationship.
    According to a development, the calibration just described can take place during the operation of the gas sensor device 1a. The gas sensor device 1a can thereby perform self-calibration. The self-calibration is preferably only carried out when an essentially constant resistance value R0 is measured over a predetermined period of time, for example several minutes, hours or even days. The control device 4 now generates extra measurement times t7, t8, with preferably at most one extra measurement time t7, t8 lying between two regular measurement times t1 to t6. The heating means 3 heat the sensor resistor 2 until the continuously measured resistance value R is equal to the constant value R0. The measured duration T2 is assigned to the corresponding time difference d. The exact connection between the duration T2 and the time difference d can be determined by repeated execution. The look-up table can be updated accordingly.
    FIG. 6 illustrates a block diagram of a gas sensor device 1b according to a further embodiment. In addition to the elements already described above, the mode of operation of which will not be repeated here, the gas sensor device 1b includes a preprocessor 6 which is designed to preprocess the resistance values R measured by the detection means 5 . A base value tracker 7 analyzes the pre-processed data over a longer period of time and thus determines a base value. The base value can, for example, be equal to a maximum measured resistance value R, which corresponds to indoor air of high air quality since few additional chemical components are present. This base value is used to calculate the air quality at any point in time. For this purpose, an air quality calculation device 8 compares the measured resistance values R with the base value, thus comparing the current air quality with the optimal air quality, and outputs an air quality value 9 . This can be displayed to a user via an interface.
    FIG. 7 shows a flowchart of a method for operating a gas sensor device 1a, 1b, which can be one of the gas sensor devices 1a, 1b described above. The measurement is initiated in a method step S1. In a method step S2, it is checked whether the specified time difference W between two regular measurement times t1 to t6, for example 300 seconds, has already been reached. If this is not the case, a method step S3 checks whether a signal for carrying out an additional measurement is being received. If this is not the case, in a method step S4 there is a wait for a predetermined time, approximately 3 seconds, and then method step S2 is carried out again. If a signal for carrying out an additional measurement is received, a measurement with an adapted duration T2 of the associated heating interval Z1, Z2 is carried out in a method step S6.
    If the predetermined time difference W is reached in method step S2, a method step S5 checks whether an extra measurement has preceded it. If this is the case, a measurement with an adapted duration T3 of the heating interval P5 is also carried out in method step S6. Otherwise, a regular measurement with a non-adapted duration T1 is carried out in a method step S7.
    To carry out the measurement, in a method step S8 the heating means 3 are activated for the respective specific duration of the heating interval and in a method step S9 the measured resistance value R is output.
    According to further embodiments, the next automatic measurement can be carried out after an additional measurement at a time interval which corresponds to the regular predetermined time interval between two automatic measurements.
