scientists have developed a sensor, the energy of the fluid (liquid or gas) can have through their own conversion into electricity, which means that the sensor can own / power generation 0, which

resources, made some pretty good results.For example, successfully developed / protein chip biosensor system 0 and its practical prototype provides a novel label-free protein analysis technology.The

energy consumption by 1000 times), efficient, highly integrated, reliable and economic advantages.Therefore, the development of nanoelectronics, may lead to a new revolution in sensor technology and sensor technology to a new stage of development.2 domestic sensor gapIn recent years, China's sensor industry has made great strides, and has formed the basis of a certain industry, but there is still a wide gap compared with developed countries. Scientific research and development behind the international level from 5 to 10 years, 10 to 15 years behind the large-scale production technology. China's chemical industry, the security monitoring sensor market, almost all foreign enterprises occupied. Sensors for military, aerospace and other purposes, the foreign country is an embargo. The level of development of the sensor behind a serious impediment to the development of China's automobile, petrochemical, aerospace and other industries. At present, China has yielded few results of independent intellectual property rights of innovative research results to industrial conversion speed is slow, inefficient, and achieved significant social and economic benefits of the project less; able to represent the national level, but also to achieve large-scale production of small enterprises, high-grade fewer products, low market share; big gap between production technology and equipment from the international level; overall in the tracking state. Sensor devices and systems the comprehensive technical level of China's independent innovation capability is low, sensitive materials, integrated design and manufacturing, industrial design, testing and calibration than backward. Gap with foreign countries mainly in: Device varieties, mainly dependent on imports of high-end products; lower level of automation, intelligent; modular, standardized, low degree of integration; poor stability, reliability is low; Low cost the market less competitive.3 countermeasures and suggestionsAccording to the current situation of the development of sensor technology at home and abroad, our gaps, combined with the needs and priorities of China's science and technology, social and economic development strategy, to give overall consideration to the sensor technology, basic research, applied basic research and applied research. Basic research is mainly focused on sensor mechanism of, from a theoretical point of view to solve a number of key technologies of sensor development, provide important theoretical basis for the study of the sensor. Application of basic research on the basis of the basic research, focusing on key technologies provide important technical support for the sensor market process transformation to the theoretical and experimental prototype. In the sensor applied research, the mainexisting, after the application of the basic research stage proved to be more reliable and mature technology into the application stage of the market-oriented products.For our future sensor development countermeasures, including the following aspects:1) the planning of the national level from the level of national development, the future direction of development of the sensor planning, the plan should focus on the development of a new type of high-precision, low power consumption, miniaturization and miniaturized sensors. Note that the combination of production, learning and research.2) between different industries sensors complement each other and promote each sensor as an information access means in different industries have different characteristics and needs. Similar sensor technology for different industries. Should support complementary advantages between the various sectors, including joint research on common technology, craftsmanship help each other, to form a common development of various industries, thus contributing to the sensorVigorously develop technology.3) vigorously promote the construction and development of the sensor research base, to develop sensor senior professionals to encourage the sensor research leading to the national laboratory, the joint ministerial key laboratories, Key Laboratory of the industry and universities Key Laboratory, the formation of a system national the sensor research base group to provide technical support for the development of the sensor. Meanwhile, laboratory and trained expertise of a number of sensors, provide important protection of personnel for the development of sensor technology research areas.4) To change from passive to active, actively develop high-performance sensor in the the sensor research process to avoid simply copying foreign technology. Sensing technology trends, to carry out a prospective study to break through the bottleneck problem, a technology with independent intellectual property rights, to break down foreignTechnological monopoly, in a place on the international.Development of new sensor new sensor, generally should include: a new principle, fill sensor Blank, biomimetic sensors and other aspects. They are interrelated. The working mechanism of the sensor is based on a variety of effects, and the law of which inspire people to further explore the sensitive functional materials with new effects and novel physical properties sensor device developed new principle, which is the development of high-performance, multi-function, important way of low-cost, miniaturized sensors. Structured sensor developed earlier matures. Complex structure type sensor, the general structure it, the volume is too large, the prices are high. Type sensors of the physical properties of roughly contrast, has many attractive advantages, coupled with past development is not enough. Countries in the world in terms of physical properties sensor invest a lot of manpower and material resources to strengthen research, thus making it a noteworthy developments. The various effects of quantum mechanics developed low sensitivity threshold sensor usedto detect weak signals, the development of one of the new trends. Integrated, multifunctional, integrated intelligent sensor includes two definitions, and one multi-element of the same functions in parallel, about a single sensing element of the same type with integrated technology are arranged on the same plane, aligned in one dimension This is the case for a linear sensor, a CCD image sensor. Another definition of integrated multi-functional integration, upcoming sensor zoom, computing, and temperature compensation, link integration, assembled into a single device. With the development of integrated technologies, various types of hybrid and monolithic integrated pressure sensors have appeared, some of them have become a commodity. Integrated piezoresistive, capacitive pressure sensor, and other types of integrated piezoresistive sensors rapid development and wide application. Sensor multifunction is one of the development. The typical example of the so-called multi-functional monolithic silicon, an American University Sensor Research and Development Center developed a multi-axis force sensor can measure three line speed, of three centrifugal acceleration (angular velocity) and three angular acceleration. The main element is mounted on one substrate by four properly designed cantilever consisting of monolithic silicon structures, 9 are correctly arranged in the respective cantilever piezoresistive sensitive components. Multifunctional not only can reduce production costs, reduce the volume, and can effectively improve the stability of the sensor, reliability and other performance indicators. Integrate a plurality of different functions of the sensing element and integrated processing and evaluation of the results of measurement of these parameters, in addition to measurement of a variety of parameters can be performed simultaneously, but also reflects the overall status of the system under test.From the above it can be seen, integrated solid-state sensor brings many new opportunities, it is also the basis of multi-functional. Combination of sensor and microprocessor, the detection function also has information processing, logical judgment, self-diagnostics, and artificial intelligence of "thinking" it is called intelligent sensors. By means of a semiconductor integrated sensor portion signal pre-processing circuit, the input and output interfaces, microprocessor production on the same chip, large-scale integrated intelligent sensor. Smart sensor is the product of the combination of sensor technology and LSI technology, its implementation will depend on the improvement and development of the sensing technology and semiconductor integrated process level. Such sensors have multi-energy, high-performance, small size, suitable for mass production and ease of use, and can say with certainty, is one of the most important direction sensor.The development of new materials, sensor materials is an important foundation of the sensor technology, sensor technology upgrades support. With the advances in materials science, sensor technology has matured, more and more of its kind, In addition to early use of semiconductor materials, ceramic materials, optical fiber, as well as the development of superconducting materials, the development of the sensor provides a material basis. For example, according to many semiconductor materials silicon substrate easy miniaturization, integration, multi-functional, intelligent, and semiconductor optical heat detectors with high sensitivity, high accuracy, non-contactsexual characteristics, the development of infrared sensors, laser sensors modern sensors, fiber optic sensors, etc.; in the sensitive material, a ceramic material, organic material quickly, different formulations can be used mixed raw material and precision deployment of chemical constituents based on, after the precision molding sintering, to obtain one or a certain types of gas-sensitive material having an identification function, is used to produce a new gas sensor. In addition, the organic polymer sensitive materials is of great concern in recent years new sensitive materials with potential applications, the sensor can be made of the thermistor, photosensitive, gas sensing, humidity, force-sensitive ion-sensitive biological Min et al. Sensor technology continues to evolve, but also to promote the development of newer materials, such as nano materials.U.S. NRC has developed a nano ZrO2 gas sensor, and control of motor vehicle exhaust emissions, cleaning up the environment effect good, relatively broad application prospects. As a result of the production of nanomaterials sensor, has a huge interface can provide a lot of gas channel, and the on-resistance is small, is conducive to the development of miniaturized sensor to the birth of more new material With the continuous advancement of science and technology . Adoption of new technology in the development of new sensors, is inseparable from the adoption of new technology. Within the meaning of the new technology is very broad, and here mainly refers to the development of emerging sensor contact a particularly close microfabrication technology. This technique, also known as micro-machining technology, With the IC process development, it is the ion beam, electron beam, molecular beam, a laser beam, and chemical etching for microelectronics processing techniques in recent years, has been the more more used in the sensor field, such as sputtering, vapor deposition, plasma etching, chemical gas deposition (CVD), epitaxy, diffusion, etching, lithography, etc., so far, a large number of sensors made by the process described above reported at home and abroad. Smart materials smart materials refers to the physical, chemical, mechanical, electrical, and other parameters of the design and control of materials, develop biological material characteristics or superior to biological material properties of artificial materials. Some people think that the material has the following functions can be called smart materials: a judgment on the environment can be adaptive function; possess self-diagnostic function; possess self-healing capabilities; function with self-reinforced (or time base). The most prominent feature of the biological material with time base function, this differential sensor characteristics and its variational sensitive.Conversely, the long-term in a particular environment and get used to this environment, the sensitivity decreased. In general, it can adjust its sensitivity to adapt to the environment. In addition to the biological material, most notably smart material is a shape memory alloy, shape memory ceramics and shape memory polymer. The smart material exploration work has just begun, I believe the near future there will be a lot of development.。

What is a smart sensorOne of the biggest advances in automation has been the development and spread of smart sensors. But what exactly is a "smart" sensor? Experts from six sensor manufacturers define this term.A good working "smart sensor" definition comes from Tom Griffiths, product manager, Honeywell Industrial Measurement and Control. Smart sensors, he says, are "sensors and instrument packages that are microprocessor driven and include features such as communication capability and on-board diagnostics that provide information to a monitoring system and/or operator to increase operational efficiency and reduce maintenance costs."No failure to communicate"The benefit of the smart sensor," says Bill Black, controllers product manager at GE Fanuc Automation, "is the wealth of information that can be gathered from the process to reduce downtime and improve quality." David Edeal, Temposonics product manager, MTS Sensors, expands on that: "The basic premise of distributed intelligence," he says, is that "complete knowledge of a system, subsystem, or component's state at the right place and time enables the ability to make 'optimal' process control decisions."Adds John Keating, product marketing manager for the Checker machine vision unit at Cognex, "For a (machine vision) sensor to really be 'smart,' it should not require the user to understand machine vision."A smart sensor must communicate. "At the most basic level, an 'intelligent' sensor has the ability to communicate information beyond the basic feedback signals that are derived from its application." saysEdeal. This can be a HART signal superimposed on a standard 4-20 mA process output, a bus system, or wireless arrangement. A growing factor in this area is IEEE 1451, a family of smart transducer interface standards intended to give plug-and-play functionality to sensors from different makers.Diagnose, programSmart sensors can self-monitor for any aspect of their operation, including "photo eye dirty, out of tolerance, or failed switch," says GE Fanuc's Black. Add to this, says Helge Hornis, intelligent systems manager, Pepperl+Fuchs, "coil monitoring functions, target out of range, or target too close." It may also compensate for changes in operating conditions. "A 'smart' sensor," says Dan Armentrout, strategic creative director, Omron Electronics LLC, "must monitor itself and its surroundings and then make a decision to compensate for the changes automatically or alert someone for needed attention."Many smart sensors can be re-ranged in the field, offering "settable parameters that allow users to substitute several 'standard' sensors," says Hornis. "For example, typically sensors are ordered to be normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC). An intelligent sensor can be configured to be either one of these kinds."Intelligent sensors have numerous advantages. As the cost of embedded computing power continues to decrease, "smart" devices will be used in more applications. Internal diagnostics alone can recover the investment quickly by helping avoid costly downtime.Sensors: Getting into PositionAs the saying goes, 'No matter where you go, there you are.' Still, most applications require a bit more precision and repeatability than that, so here's advice on how to select and locate position sensors.The article contains online extra material.What's the right position sensor for a particular application? It depends on required precision, repeatability, speed, budget, connectivity, conditions, and location, among other factors. You can bet that taking the right measurement is the first step to closing the loop on any successful application.Sensor technologies that can detect position are nearly as diverse as applications in providing feedback for machine control and other uses. Spatial possibilities are linear, area, rotational, andthree-dimensional. In some applications, they're used in combination. Sensing elements are equally diverse.Ken Brey, technical director, DMC Inc., a Chicago-based system integrator, outlined some the following position-sensing options.Think digitallyFor digital position feedback:∙Incremental encoders are supported by all motion controllers; come in rotary and linear varieties and in many resolutions; are simulated by many other devices; and require a homing process to reference the machine to a physical marker, and when power is turned off.∙Absolute encoders are natively supported by fewer motion controllers; can be used by all controllers that have sufficient available digital inputs; report a complete position within theirrange (typically one revolution); and do not require homing.∙Resolvers are more immune to high-level noise in welding applications; come standard on some larger motors; simulate incremental encoders when used with appropriate servo amps; and can simulate absolute encoders with some servo amps.∙Dual-encoder feedback, generally under-used, is natively supported by most motion controllers; uses one encoder attached to the motor and another attached directly to the load; and is beneficial when the mechanical connection between motor and load is flexible or can slip.∙Vision systems , used widely for inspection, can also be used for position feedback. Such systems locate objects in multiple dimensions, typically X, Y, and rotation; frequently find parts ona conveyor; and are increasing in speed and simplicity.A metal rolling, stamping, and cut-off application provides an example of dual-encoder feedback use, Brey says. 'It required rapid and accurate indexing of material through a roll mill for a stamping process. The roll mill creates an inconsistent amount of material stretch and roller slip,' Brey explains.'By using the encoder on the outgoing material as position feedback and the motor resolver as velocity feedback in a dual-loop configuration, the system was tuned stable and a single index move provided an accurate index length. It was much faster and more accurate than making a primary move, measuring the error, then having to make a second correction move,' he says.Creative, economicalSam Hammond, chief engineer, Innoventor, a St. Louis, MO-area system integrator, suggests that the application's purpose should guide selection of position sensors; measurements and feedback don't have to be complex. 'Creative implementations can provide simple, economical solutions,' he says. For instance, for sequencing, proximity sensors serve well in many instances.Recent sensor applications include the AGV mentioned in lead image and the following.∙In a machine to apply the top seals to tea containers, proximity and through-beam sensors locate incoming packages. National Instruments vision system images are processed to find location ofa bar code on a pre-applied label, and then give appropriate motorcommands to achieve the desired position (rotation) setting to apply one of 125 label types. Two types of position sensors were used. One was a simple inductive proximity sensor, used to monitor machine status to ensure various motion components were in the right position for motion to occur. The camera also served as a position sensor, chosen because of its multi purpose use, feature location, and ability to read bar codes.∙ A progressive-die stamping machine operates in closed loop. A linear output proximity sensor provides control feedback for optimizing die operation; a servo motor adjusts die position in the bend stage. A linear proximity sensor was selected to give a dimensional readout from the metal stamping operation; data are used in a closed-loop control system.∙Part inspection uses a laser distance measurement device to determine surface flatness. Sensor measures deviation in return beams, indicating different surface attributes to 10 microns insize. An encoder wouldn't have worked because distance was more thana meter. Laser measurement was the technology chosen because it hadvery high spatial resolution, did not require surface contact, and had a very high distance resolution.An automotive key and lock assembly system uses a proximity sensor for detecting a cap in the ready position. A laser profile sensor applied with a robot measures the key profile.What to use, where?Sensor manufacturers agree that matching advantages inherent to certain position sensing technologies can help various applications.David Edeal, product marketing manager, MTS Sensors Div., says, for harsh factory automation environments, 'the most significant factors even above speed and accuracy in customer's minds are product durability and reliability. Therefore, products with inherently non-contact sensing technologies (inductive, magnetostrictive, laser, etc.) have a significant advantage over those that rely on physical contact (resistive, cable extension, etc.)'Other important factors, Edeal says, are product range of use and application flexibility. 'In other words, technologies that can accommodate significant variations in stroke range, environmental conditions, and can provide a wide range of interface options are of great value to customers who would prefer to avoid sourcing a large variety of sensor types. All technologies are inherently limited with respect to these requirements, which is why there are so many options.'Edeal suggest that higher cost of fitting some technologies to a certain application creates a limitation, such as with linear variabledifferential transformers. 'For example, LVDTs with stroke lengths longer than 12 inches are rare because of the larger product envelope (about twice the stroke length) and higher material and manufacturing costs. On the other hand, magnetostrictive sensing technology has always required conditioning electronics. With the advent of microelectronics and the use of ASICs, we have progressed to a point where, today, a wide range of programmable output types (such as analog, encoder, and fieldbus) are available in the same compact package. Key for sensor manufacturers is to push the envelope to extend the range of use (advantages) while minimizing the limitations (disadvantages) of their technologies.'Listen to your appDifferent sensor types offer distinct advantages for various uses, agrees Tom Corbett, product manager, Pepperl+Fuchs. 'Sometimes the application itself is the deciding factor on which mode of sensing is required. For example, a machine surface or conveyor belt within the sensing area could mean the difference between using a standard diffused mode sensor, and using a diffused mode sensor with background suppression. While standard diffused mode models are not able to ignore such background objects, background suppression models evaluate light differently to differentiate between the target surface and background surfaces.'Similarly, Corbett continues, 'a shiny target in a retro-reflective application may require use of a polarized retro-reflective model sensor. Whereas a standard retro-reflective sensor could falsely trigger when presented with a shiny target, a polarized retro-reflective model uses a polarizing filter to distinguish the shiny target from the reflector.'MTS' Edeal says, 'Each technology has ideal applications, which tend to magnify its advantages and minimize its disadvantages. For example, inthe wood products industry, where high precision; varied stroke ranges; and immunity to high shock and vibration, electromagnetic interference, and temperature fluxuations are critical, magnetostrictive position sensors are the primary linear feedback option. Likewise, rotary optical encoders are an ideal fit for motor feedback because of their packaging, response speed, accuracy, durability, and noise immunity. When applied correctly, linear position sensors can help designers to ensure optimum machine productivity over the long haul.'Thinking broadly first, then more narrowly, is often the best way to design sensors into a system. Edeal says, 'Sensor specifications should be developed by starting from the machine/system-level requirements and working back toward the subsystem, and finally component level. This is typically done, but what often happens is that some system-level specifications are not properly or completely translated back to component requirements (not that this is a trivial undertaking). For example, how machine operation might create unique or additional environmental challenges (temperature, vibration, etc.) may not be clear without in-depth analysis or past experience. This can result in an under-specified sensor in the worst situation or alternatively an over-specified product where conservative estimates are applied.'Open or closedEarly in design, those involved need to decide if the architecture will be open-loop or closed-loop. Paul Ruland, product manager, AutomationDirect, says, 'Cost and performance are generally the two main criteria used to decide between open-loop or closed-loop control in electromechanical positioning systems. Open-loop controls, such as stepping systems, can often be extremely reliable and accurate when properly sized for the system. The burden of tuning a closed-loop systemprior to operation is not required here, which inherently makes it easy to apply. Both types can usually be controlled by the same motion controller. A NEMA 23 stepping motor with micro-stepping drive is now available for as little as $188, compared to an equivalent servo system at about $700.'Edeal suggests, 'Control systems are created to automate processes and there are many good examples of high-performance control systems that require little if any feedback. However, where structural system (plant) or input (demand or disturbance) changes occur, feedback is necessary to manage unanticipated changes. On the process side, accuracy—both static and dynamic—is important for end product quality, and system stability and repeatability (robustness) are important for machine productivity.'For example,' Edeal says, 'in a machining or injection molding application, the tool, mold or ram position feedback is critical to the final dimension of the fabricated part. With rare exceptions, dimensional accuracy of the part will never surpass that of the position sensor. Similarly, bandwidth (response speed) of the sensor may, along with response limitations of the actuators, limit production rates.'Finally, a sensor that is only accurate over a narrow range of operating conditions will not be sufficient in these types of environments where high shock and vibration and dramatic temperature variations are common.'The latestWhat are the latest position sensing technologies to apply to manufacturing and machining processes and why?Ruland says, 'Some of the latest developments in positioning technologies for manufacturing applications can be found in even the simplest ofdevices, such as new lower-cost proximity switches. Many of these prox devices are now available for as little as $20 and in much smaller form factors, down to 3 mm diameter. Some specialty models are also available with increased response frequencies up to 20 kHz. Where mounting difficulties and cost of an encoder are sometimes impractical, proximity switches provide an attractive alternative; many position control applications can benefit from increased performance, smaller package size, and lower purchase price and installation cost.'Corbett concurs. 'Photoelectric sensors are getting smaller, more durable, and flexible, and are packed with more standard features than ever before. Some new photoelectrics are about half the size of conventional cylindrical housings and feature welded housings compared with standard glued housings. Such features are very desirable in manufacturing and machining applications where space is critical and durability is a must. And more flexible connectivity and mounting options—side mount or snout mount are available from the same product—allow users to adapt a standard sensor to their machine, rather than vice versa.'Another simple innovation, Corbett says, is use of highly visible,360-degree LED that clearly display status information from any point of view. 'Such enhanced LED indicates overload and marginal excess gain, in addition to power and output. Such sensors offer adjustable sensitivity as standard, but are available with optional tamperproof housings to prevent unauthorized adjustments.'Photoelectric SensorsPhotoelectric sensors are typically available in at least nine or more sensing modes, use two light sources, are encapsulated in three categories of package sizes, offer five or more sensing ranges, and can be purchasedin various combinations of mounting styles, outputs, and operating voltages. It creates a bewildering array of sensor possibilities and a catalog full of options.This plethora of choices can be narrowed in two ways: The first has to do with the object being sensed. Second involves the sensor's environment.Boxed inThe first question to ask is: What is the sensor supposed to detect? "Are we doing bottles? Or are we detecting cardboard boxes?" says Greg Knutson, a senior applications engineer with sensor manufacturer Banner Engineering.Optical properties and physical distances will determine which sensing mode and what light source work best. In the case of uniformly colored boxes, for example, it might be possible to use an inexpensive diffuse sensor, which reflects light from the box.The same solution, however, can't be used when the boxes are multicolored and thus differ in reflectivity. In that case, the best solution might be an opposed or retroreflective mode sensor. Here, the system works by blocking a beam. When a box is in position, the beam is interrupted and the box detected. Without transparent boxes, the technique should yield reliable results. Several sensors could gauge boxes of different heights.Distance plays a role in selecting the light source, which can either be an LED or a laser. LED is less expensive. However, because LED are a more diffuse light source, they are better suited for shorter distances. A laser can be focused on a spot, yielding a beam that can reach long distances. Tight focus can also be important when small features have tobe sensed. If a small feature has to be spotted from several feet, it may be necessary to use a laser.Laser sensors used to cost many times more than LED. That differential has dropped with the plummeting price of laser diodes. There's still a premium for using a laser, but it's not as large as in the past.Environmental challengesOperating environment is the other primary determining factor in choosing a sensor. Some industries, such food and automotive, tend to be messy, dangerous, or both. In the case of food processing, humidity can be high and a lot of fluids can be present. Automotive manufacturing sites that process engines and other components may include grit, lubricants, and coolants. In such situations, the sensor's environmental rating is of concern. If the sensor can't handle dirt, then it can't be used. Such considerations also impact the sensing range needed because it may be necessary to station the sensor out of harm's way and at a greater distance than would otherwise be desirable. Active alarming and notification may be useful if lens gets dirty and signal degrades.Similar environmental issues apply to the sensor's size, which can range from smaller than a finger to something larger than an open hand. A smaller sensor can be more expensive than a larger one because it costs more to pack everything into a small space. Smaller sensors also have a smaller area to collect light and therefore tend to have less range and reduced optical performance. Those drawbacks have to be balanced against a smaller size being a better fit for the amount of physical space available.Sensors used in semiconductor clean room equipment, for example, don't face harsh environmental conditions, but do have to operate in tight spaces. Sensing distances typically run a few inches, thus the sensorstend to be small. They also often make use of fiber optics to bring light into and out of the area where changes are being detected.Mounting, pricingAnother factor to consider is the mounting system. Frequently, sensors must be mechanically protected with shrouds and other means. Such mechanical and optical protection can cost more than the sensor itself—a consideration for the buying process. If vendors have flexible mounting systems and a protective mounting arrangement for sensors, the products could be easier to implement and last longer.List prices for standard photoelectric sensors range from $50 or so to about $100.Laser and specialty photoelectric sensors cost between $150 and $500. Features such as a low-grade housing, standard optical performance, and limited or no external adjustments characterize the lower ends of each category. The higher end will have a high-grade housing, such as stainless steel or aluminum, high optical performance, and be adjustable in terms of gain or allow timing and other options. Low-end products are suitable for general applications, while those at the higher end may offer application-specific operation at high speed, high temperature, or in explosive environments.Finally, keep in mind that one sensing technology may not meet all of the needs of an application. And if needs change, a completely different sensor technology may be required. Having to switch to a new approach can be made simpler if a vendor offers multiple technologies in the same housing and mounting footprint, notes Ed Myers, product manager at sensor manufacturer Pepperl+Fuchs. If that's the case, then one technology can be more easily swapped out for another as needs change.译文什么是智能传感器自动化领域所取得的一项最大进展就是智能传感器的发展与广泛使用。

It consists of two wires of dissimilar metals joined near the measurement point. The output is a small voltage measured between the two wires.While appealingly simple in concept, the theory behind the thermocouple is subtle, the basics of which need to be understood for the most effective use of the sensor.Thermocouple theoryA thermocouple circuit has at least two junctions: the measurement junction and a reference junction. Typically, the reference junction is created where the two wires connect to the measuring device. This second junction it is really two junctions: one for each of the two wires, but because they are assumed to be at the same temperature (isothermal) they are considered as one (thermal) junction. It is the point where the metals change - from the thermocouple metals to what ever metals are used in the measuring device - typically copper.The output voltage is related to the temperature difference between the measurement and the reference junctions. This is phenomena is known as the Seebeck effect. (See the Thermocouple Calculator to get a feel for the magnitude of the Seebeck voltage). The Seebeck effect generates a small voltage along the length of a wire, and is greatest where the temperature gradient is greatest. If the circuit is of wire of identical material, then they will generate identical but opposite Seebeck voltages which will cancel. However, if the wire metals are different the Seebeck voltages will be different and will not cancel.In practice the Seebeck voltage is made up of two components: the Peltiervoltage generated at the junctions, plus the Thomson voltage generated in the wires by the temperature gradient.The Peltier voltage is proportional to the temperature of each junction while the Thomson voltage is proportional to the square of the temperature difference between the two junctions. It is the Thomson voltage that accounts for most of the observed voltage and non-linearity in thermocouple response.Each thermocouple type has its characteristic Seebeck voltage curve. The curve is dependent on the metals, their purity, their homogeneity and their crystal structure. In the case of alloys, the ratio of constituents and their distribution in the wire is also important. These potential inhomogeneous characteristics of metal are why thick wire thermocouples can be more accurate in high temperature applications, when the thermocouple metals and their impurities become more mobile by diffusion.The practical considerations of thermocouplesThe above theory of thermocouple operation has important practical implications that are well worth understanding:1. A third metal may be introduced into a thermocouple circuit and have no impact, provided that both ends are at the same temperature. This means that the thermocouple measurement junction may be soldered, brazed or welded without affecting the thermocouple's calibration, as long as there is no net temperature gradient along the third metal.Further, if the measuring circuit metal (usually copper) is different to that of the thermocouple, then provided the temperature of the two connecting terminals is the same and known, the reading will not be affected by the presence of copper.2. The thermocouple's output is generated by the temperature gradient along the wires and not at the junctions as is commonly believed. Therefore it is important that the quality of the wire be maintained where temperature gradients exists. Wire quality can be compromised by contamination from its operating environment and the insulating material. For temperatures below 400°C, contamination of insulated wires is generally not a problem. At temperatures above 1000°C, the choice of insulationand sheath materials, as well as the wire thickness, become critical to the calibration stability of the thermocouple.The fact that a thermocouple's output is not generated at the junction should redirect attention to other potential problem areas.3. The voltage generated by a thermocouple is a function of the temperature difference between the measurement and reference junctions. Traditionally the reference junction was held at 0°C by an ice bath:The ice bath is now considered impractical and is replace by a reference junction compensation arrangement. This can be accomplished by measuring the reference junction temperature with an alternate temperature sensor (typically an RTD or thermistor) and applying a correcting voltage to the measured thermocouple voltage before scaling to temperature.The correction can be done electrically in hardware or mathematically in software. The software method is preferred as it is universal to all thermocouple types (provided the characteristics are known) and it allows for the correction of the small non-linearity over the reference temperature range.4. The low-level output from thermocouples (typically 50mV full scale) requires that care be taken to avoid electrical interference from motors, power cable, transformers and radio signal pickup. Twisting the thermocouple wire pair (say 1 twist per 10 cm) can greatly reduce magnetic field pickup. Using shielded cable or running wires in metal conduit can reduce electric field pickup. The measuring device should provide signal filtering, either in hardware or by software, with strong rejection of the line frequency (50/60 Hz) and its harmonics.5. The operating environment of the thermocouple needs to be considered. Exposure to oxidizing or reducing atmospheres at high temperature can significantly degrade some thermocouples. Thermocouples containing rhodium (B,R and S types) are not suitable under neutron radiation.The advantages and disadvantages of thermocouplesBecause of their physical characteristics, thermocouples are the preferred methodof temperature measurement in many applications. They can be very rugged, are immune to shock and vibration, are useful over a wide temperature range, are simple to manufactured, require no excitation power, there is no self heating and they can be made very small. No other temperature sensor provides this degree of versatility.Thermocouples are wonderful sensors to experiment with because of their robustness, wide temperature range and unique properties.On the down side, the thermocouple produces a relative low output signal that is non-linear. These characteristics require a sensitive and stable measuring device that is able provide reference junction compensation and linearization.Also the low signal level demands that a higher level of care be taken when installing to minimise potential noise sources.The measuring hardware requires good noise rejection capability. Ground loops can be a problem with non-isolated systems, unless the common mode range and rejection is adequate.Types of thermocoupleAbout 13 'standard' thermocouple types are commonly used. Eight have been given an internationally recognised letter type designators. The letter type designator refers to the emf table, not the composition of the metals - so any thermocouple that matches the emf table within the defined tolerances may receive that table's letter designator.Some of the non-recognised thermocouples may excel in particular niche applications and have gained a degree of acceptance for this reason, as well as due to effective marketing by the alloy manufacturer. Some of these have been given letter type designators by their manufacturers that have been partially accepted by industry.Each thermocouple type has characteristics that can be matched to applications. Industry generally prefers K and N types because of their suitability to high temperatures, while others often prefer the T type due to its sensitivity, low cost and ease of use.A table of standard thermocouple types is presented below. The table also showsthe temperature range for extension grade wire in brackets.Accuracy of thermocouplesThermocouples will function over a wide temperature range - from near absolute zero to their melting point, however they are normally only characterized over their stable range. Thermocouple accuracy is a difficult subject due to a range of factors. In principal and in practice a thermocouple can achieve excellent results (that is, significantly better than the above table indicates) if calibrated, used well below its nominal upper temperature limit and if protected from harsh atmospheres. At higher temperatures it is often better to use a heavier gauge of wire in order to maintain stability (Wire Gauge below).As mentioned previously, the temperature and voltage scales were redefined in 1990. The eight main thermocouple types - B, E, J, K, N, R, S and T - were re-characterised in 1993 to reflect the scale changes. (See: NIST Monograph 175 for details). The remaining types: C, D, G, L, M, P and U appear to have been informally re-characterised.Try the thermocouple calculator. It allows you the determine the temperature by knowing the measured voltage and the reference junction temperature.Thermocouple wire gradesThere are different grades of thermocouple wire. The principal divisions are between measurement grades and extension grades. The measurement grade has the highest purity and should be used where the temperature gradient is significant. The standard measurement grade (Class 2) is most commonly used. Special measurement grades (Class 1) are available with accuracy about twice the standard measurement grades.The extension thermocouple wire grades are designed for connecting the thermocouple to the measuring device. The extension wire may be of different metals to the measurement grade, but are chosen to have a matching response over a much reduced temperature range - typically -40°C to 120°C. The reason for using extension wire is reduced cost - they can be 20% to 30% of the cost of equivalent measurementgrades. Further cost savings are possible by using thinnergauge extension wire and a lower temperature rated insulation.Note: When temperatures within the extension wire's rating are being measured, it is OK to use the extension wire for the entire circuit. This is frequently done with T type extension wire, which is accurate over the -60 to 100°C range.Thermocouple wire gaugeAt high temperatures, thermocouple wire can under go irreversible changes in the form of modified crystal structure, selective migration of alloy components and chemical changes originating from the surface metal reacting to the surrounding environment. With some types, mechanical stress and cycling can also induce changes.Increasing the diameter of the wire where it is exposed to the high temperatures can reduce the impact of these effects.The following table can be used as a very approximate guide to wire gauge:At these higher temperatures, the thermocouple wire should be protected as much as possible from hostile gases. Reducing or oxidizing gases can corrode some thermocouple wire very quickly. Remember, the purity of the thermocouple wire is most important where the temperature gradients are greatest. It is with this part of the thermocouple wiring where the most care must be taken.Other sources of wire contamination include the mineral packing material and the protective metal sheath. Metallic vapour diffusion can be significant problem at high temperatures. Platinum wires should only be used inside a nonmetallic sheath, such as high-purity alumna.Neutron radiation (as in a nuclear reactor) can have significant permanent impact on the thermocouple calibration. This is due to the transformation of metals to different elements.High temperature measurement is very difficult in some situations. In preference, use non-contact methods. However this is not always possible, as the site of temperature measurement is not always visible to these types of sensors.Colour coding of thermocouple wireThe colour coding of thermocouple wire is something of a nightmare! There are at least seven different standards. There are some inconsistencies between standards, which seem to have been designed to confuse. For example the colour red in the USA standard is always used for the negative lead, while in German and Japanese standards it is always the positive lead. The British, French and International standards avoid the use of red entirely!Thermocouple mountingThere are four common ways in which thermocouples are mounted with in a stainless steel or Inconel sheath and electrically insulated with mineral oxides. Each of the methods has its advantages and disadvantages.Sealed and Isolated from Sheath: Good relatively trouble-free arrangement. The principal reason for not using this arrangement for all applications is its sluggish response time - the typical time constant is 75 secondsSealed and Grounded to Sheath: Can cause ground loops and other noise injection, but provides a reasonable time constant (40 seconds) and a sealed enclosure.Exposed Bead: Faster response time constant (typically 15 seconds), but lacks mechanical and chemical protection, and electrical isolation from material being measured. The porous insulating mineral oxides must be sealedExposed Fast Response: Fastest response time constant, typically 2 seconds but with fine gauge of junction wire the time constant can be 10-100 ms. In addition to problems of the exposed bead type, the protruding and light construction makes the thermocouple more prone to physical damage.Thermocouple compensation and linearizationAs mentioned above, it is possible to provide reference junction compensation in hardware or in software. The principal is the same in both cases: adding a correction voltage to the thermocouple output voltage, proportional to the reference junction temperature. To this end, the connection point of the thermocouple wires to the measuring device (i.e. where the thermocouple materials change to the copper of thecircuit electronics) must be monitored by a sensor. This area must be design to be isothermal, so that the sensor accurately tracks both reference junction temperatures.The hardware solution is simple but not always as easy to implement as one might expect.The circuit needs to be designed for a specific thermocouple type and hence lacks the flexibility of the software approach.The software compensation technique simplifies the hardware requirement, by eliminating the reference sensor amplifier and summing circuit (although a multiplexer may be required).The software algorithm to process the signals needs to be carefully written. A sample algorithm details the process.A good resource for thermocouple emf tables and coefficients is at the US Commerce Dept's NIST web site. It covers the B, E, J, K, N, R, S and T types.The thermocouple as a heat pumpThe thermocouple can function in reverse. If a current is passed through a thermocouple circuit, one junction will cool and the other warm. This is known as the Peltier Effect and is used in small cooling systems. The effect can be demonstrated by alternately passing a current through a thermocouple circuit and then quickly measuring the circuit's Seebeck voltage. This process has been used, with very fine thermocouple wire (0.025 mm with about a 10 mA current), to measure humidity by ensuring the cooled junction drops below the air's dew point. This causes condensation to form on the cooled junction. The junction is allowed to return to ambient, with the temperature curve showing an inflection at the dew point caused by the latent heat of vaporization.Measuring temperature differencesThermocouples are excellent for measuring temperatures differences, such as the wet bulb depression in measuring humidity. Sensitivity can be enhanced by constructing a thermopile - a number of thermocouple circuits in series.In the above example, the thermopile output is proportional to the temperaturedifference T1 - T2, with a sensitivity three times that of a single junction pair. In practice, thermopiles with two to hundreds of junctions are used in radiometers, heat flux sensors, flow sensors and humidity sensors. The thermocouple materials can be in wire form, but also printed or etched as foils and even electroplated.An excellent example of the thermopile is in the heat flux sensors manufactured by Hukseflux Thermal Sensors. Also see RdF Corp. and Exergen Corp.The thermocouple is unique in its ability to directly measure a temperature difference. Other sensor types require a pair of closely matched sensors to ensure tracking over the entire operational temperature range.The thermoelectric generatorWhile the Seebeck voltage is very small (in the order of 10-70μV/°C), if the circuit's electrical resistance is low (thick, short wires), then large currents are possible (e.g. many amperes). An efficiency trade-off of electrical resistance (as small as possible) and thermal resistance (as large as possible) between the junctions is the major issue. Generally, electrical and thermal resistances trend together with different materials. The output voltage can be increased by wiring as a thermopile.The thermoelectric generator has found its best-known application as the power source in some spacecraft. A radioactive material, such as plutonium, generates heat and cooling is provided by heat radiation into space. Such an atomic power source can reliably provide many tens of watts of power for years. The fact that atomic generators are highly radioactive prevents their wider application.译文：热电偶温度传感器热电偶的定义热电偶是最简单的传感器之一。

Basic knowledge of transducersA transducer is a device which converts the quantity being measured into an optical, mechanical, or-more commonly-electrical signal. The energy-conversion process that takes place is referred to as transduction.Transducers are classified according to the transduction principle involved and the form of the measured. Thus a resistance transducer for measuring displacement is classified as a resistance displacement transducer. Other classification examples are pressure bellows, force diaphragm, pressure flapper-nozzle, and so on.1、Transducer ElementsAlthough there are exception ,most transducers consist of a sensing element and a conversion or control element. For example, diaphragms,bellows,strain tubes and rings, bourdon tubes, and cantilevers are sensing elements which respond to changes in pressure or force and convert these physical quantities into a displacement. This displacement may then be used to change an electrical parameter such as voltage, resistance, capacitance, or inductance. Such combination of mechanical and electrical elements form electromechanical transducing devices or transducers. Similar combination can be made for other energy input such as thermal. Photo, magnetic and chemical,giving thermoelectric, photoelectric,electromaanetic, and electrochemical transducers respectively.2、Transducer SensitivityThe relationship between the measured and the transducer output signal is usually obtained by calibration tests and is referred to as the transducer sensitivity K1= output-signal increment / measured increment . In practice, the transducer sensitivity is usually known, and, by measuring the output signal, the input quantity is determined from input= output-signal increment / K1.3、Characteristics of an Ideal TransducerThe high transducer should exhibit the following characteristicsa) high fidelity-the transducer output waveform shape be a faithful reproduction of the measured; there should be minimum distortion.b) There should be minimum interference with the quantity being measured; the presence of the transducer should not alter the measured in any way.c) Size. The transducer must be capable of being placed exactly where it is needed.d) There should be a linear relationship between the measured and the transducer signal.e) The transducer should have minimum sensitivity to external effects, pressure transducers,for example,are often subjected to external effects such vibration and temperature.f) The natural frequency of the transducer should be well separated from the frequency and harmonics of the measurand.4、Electrical TransducersElectrical transducers exhibit many of the ideal characteristics. In addition they offer high sensitivity as well as promoting the possible of remote indication or mesdurement. Electrical transducers can be divided into two distinct groups:a) variable-control-parameter types,which include:i)resistanceii) capacitanceiii) inductanceiv) mutual-inductance typesThese transducers all rely on external excitation voltage for their operation.b) self-generating types,which includei) electromagneticii)thermoelectriciii)photoemissiveiv)piezo-electric typesThese all themselves produce an output voltage in response to the measurand input and their effects are reversible. For example, a piezo-electric transducer normally produces an output voltage in response to the deformation of a crystalline material; however, if an alternating voltage is applied across the material, the transducer exhibits the reversible effect by deforming or vibrating at the frequency of the alternating voltage.5、Resistance TransducersResistance transducers may be divided into two groups, as follows:i) Those which experience a large resistance change, measured by using potential-divider methods. Potentiometers are in this group.ii)Those which experience a small resistance change, measured by bridge-circuit methods. Examples of this group include strain gauges and resistance thermometers.5.1 PotentiometersA linear wire-wound potentiometer consists of a number of turns resistance wire wound around a non-conducting former, together with a wiping contact which travels over the barwires. The construction principles are shown in figure which indicate that the wiperdisplacement can be rotary, translational, or a combination of both to give a helical-type motion. The excitation voltage may be either a.c. or d.c. and the output voltage is proportional to the input motion, provided the measuring device has a resistance which is much greater than the potentiometer resistance.Such potentiometers suffer from the linked problem of resolution and electrical noise. Resolution is defined as the smallest detectable change in input and is dependent on thecross-sectional area of the windings and the area of the sliding contact. The output voltage is thus a serials of steps as the contact moves from one wire to next.Electrical noise may be generated by variation in contact resistance, by mechanical wear due to contact friction, and by contact vibration transmitted from the sensing element. In addition, the motion being measured may experience significant mechanical loading by the inertia and friction of the moving parts of the potentiometer. The wear on the contacting surface limits the life of a potentiometer to a finite number of full strokes or rotations usually referred to in the manufacture’s specification as the ‘number of cycles of life expectancy’, a typical value being 20*1000000 cycles.The output voltage V0 of the unload potentiometer circuit is determined as follows. Let resistance R1= xi/xt *Rt where xi = input displacement, xt= maximum possible displacement, Rt total resistance of the potentiometer. Then output voltage V0= V*R1/(R1+( Rt-R1))=V*R1/Rt=V*xi/xt*Rt/Rt=V*xi/xt. This shows that there is a straight-line relationship between output voltage and input displacement for the unloaded potentiometer.It would seen that high sensitivity could be achieved simply by increasing the excitation voltage V. however, the maximum value of V is determined by the maximum power dissipation P of the fine wires of the potentiometer winding and is given by V=(PRt)1/2 .5.2 Resistance Strain GaugesResistance strain gauges are transducers which exhibit a change in electrical resistance in response to mechanical strain. They may be of the bonded or unbonded variety .a) bonded strain gaugesUsing an adhesive, these gauges are bonded, or cemented, directly on to the surface of the body or structure which is being examined.Examples of bonded gauges arei) fine wire gauges cemented to paper backingii) photo-etched grids of conducting foil on an epoxy-resin backingiii)a single semiconductor filament mounted on an epoxy-resin backing with copper or nickel leads.Resistance gauges can be made up as single elements to measuring strain in one direction only,or a combination of elements such as rosettes will permit simultaneous measurements in more than one direction.b) unbonded strain gaugesA typical unbonded-strain-gauge arrangement shows fine resistance wires stretched around supports in such a way that the deflection of the cantilever spring system changes the tension in the wires and thus alters the resistance of wire. Such an arrangement may be found in commercially available force, load, or pressure transducers.5.3 Resistance Temperature TransducersThe materials for these can be divided into two main groups:a) metals such as platinum, copper, tungsten, and nickel which exhibit and increase in resistance as the temperature rises; they have a positive temperature coefficient of resistance.b) semiconductors, such as thermistors which use oxides of manganese, cobalt, chromium, or nickel. These exhibit large non-linear resistance changes with temperature variation and normally have a negative temperature coefficient of resistance.a) metal resistance temperature transducersThese depend, for many practical purpose and within a narrow temperature range, upon the relationship R1=R0*[1+a*(b1-b2)] where a coefficient of resistance in ℃-1,and R0 resistance in ohms at the reference temperature b0=0℃ at the reference temperature range ℃.The international practical temperature scale is based on the platinum resistance thermometer, which covers the temperature range -259.35℃ to 630.5℃.b) thermistor resistance temperature transducersThermistors are temperature-sensitive resistors which exhibit large non-liner resistance changes with temperature variation. In general, they have a negative temperature coefficient. For small temperature increments the variation in resistance is reasonably linear; but, if large temperature changes are experienced, special linearizing techniques are used in the measuring circuits to produce a linear relationship of resistance against temperature.Thermistors are normally made in the form of semiconductor discs enclosed in glass vitreous enamel. Since they can be made as small as 1mm,quite rapid response times are possible.5.4 Photoconductive CellsThe photoconductive cell , uses a light-sensitive semiconductor material. The resistance between the metal electrodes decrease as the intensity of the light striking the semiconductor increases. Common semiconductor materials used for photo-conductive cells are cadmium sulphide, lead sulphide, and copper-doped germanium.The useful range of frequencies is determined by material used. Cadmium sulphide is mainly suitable for visible light, whereas lead sulphide has its peak response in the infra-red regionand is, therefore , most suitable for flame-failure detection and temperature measurement. 5.5 Photoemissive CellsWhen light strikes the cathode of the photoemissive cell are given sufficient energy to arrive the cathode. The positive anode attracts these electrons, producing a current which flows through resistor R and resulting in an output voltage V.Photoelectrically generated voltage V=Ip.RlWhere Ip=photoelectric current(A),and photoelectric current Ip=Kt.BWhere Kt=sensitivity (A/im),and B=illumination input (lumen)Although the output voltage does give a good indication of the magnitude of illumination, the cells are more often used for counting or control purpose, where the light striking the cathode can be interrupted.6、Capacitive TransducersThe capacitance can thus made to vary by changing either the relative permittivity, the effective area, or the distance separating the plates. The characteristic curves indicate that variations of area and relative permittivity give a linear relationship only over a small range of spacings. Thus the sensitivity is high for small values of d. Unlike the potentionmeter, the variable-distance capacitive transducer has an infinite resolution making it most suitable for measuring small increments of displacement or quantities which may be changed to produce a displacement.7、Inductive TransducersThe inductance can thus be made to vary by changing the reluctance of the inductive circuit. Measuring techniques used with capacitive and inductive transducers:a)A.C. excited bridges using differential capacitors inductors.b)A.C. potentiometer circuits for dynamic measurements.c) D.C. circuits to give a voltage proportional to velocity for a capacitor.d) Frequency-modulation methods, where the change of C or L varies the frequency of an oscillation circuit.Important features of capacitive and inductive transducers are as follows:i)resolution infiniteii) accuracy+- 0.1% of full scale is quotediii)displacement ranges 25*10-6 m to 10-3miv) rise time less than 50us possibleTypical measurands are displacement, pressure, vibration, sound, and liquid level.8、Linear Variable-differential Ttransformer9、Piezo-electric Transducers10、Electromagnetic Transducers11、Thermoelectric Transducers12、Photoelectric Cells13、Mechanical Transducers and Sensing Elements传感器的基础知识传感器是一种把被测量转换为光的、机械的或者更平常的电信号的装置。

中英文对照翻译外文资料Moving Object Counting with an Infrared Sensor NetworkAbstractWireless Sensor Network (WSN) has become a hot research topic recently. Great benefit can be gained through the deployment of the WSN over a wide range ofapplications, covering the domains of commercial, military as well as residential. In this project, we design a counting system which tracks people who pass through a detecting zone as well as the corresponding moving directions. Such a system can be deployed in traffic control, resource management, and human flow control. Our design is based on our self-made cost-effective Infrared Sensing Module board which co-operates with a WSN. The design of our system includes Infrared Sensing Module design, sensor clustering, node communication, system architecture and deployment. We conduct a series of experiments to evaluate the system performance which demonstrates the efficiency of our Moving Object Counting system.Keywords:Infrared radiation，Wireless Sensor Node1.1 Introduction to InfraredInfrared radiation is a part of the electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength lying between visible light and radio waves. Infrared have be widely used nowadaysincluding data communications, night vision, object tracking and so on. People commonly use infrared in data communication, since it is easily generated and only suffers little from electromagnetic interference. Take the TV remote control as an example, which can be found in everyone's home. The infrared remote control systems use infrared light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to send out an IR (infrared) signal when the button is pushed. A different pattern of pulses indicates the corresponding button being pushed. To allow the control of multiple appliances such as a TV, VCR, and cable box, without interference, systems generally have a preamble and an address to synchronize the receiver and identify the source and location of the infrared signal. To encode the data, systems generally vary the width of the pulses (pulse-width modulation) or the width of the spaces between the pulses (pulse space modulation). Another popular system, bi-phase encoding, uses signal transitions to convey information. Each pulse is actually a burst of IR at the carrier frequency.A 'high' means a burst of IR energy at the carrier frequency and a 'low' represents an absence of IR energy. There is no encoding standard.However, while a great many home entertainment devices use their own proprietary encoding schemes, some quasi-standards do exist. These include RC-5, RC-6, and REC-80. In addition, many manufacturers, such as NEC, have also established their own standards.Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has become a hot research topic recently. Great benefit can be gained through the deployment of the WSN over a wide range ofapplications, covering the domains of commercial, military as well as residential. In this project, we design a counting system which tracks people who pass through a detecting zone as well as the corresponding moving directions. Such a system can be deployed in traffic control, resource management, and human flow control. Our design is based on our self-made cost-effective Infrared Sensing Module board which co-operates with a WSN. The design of our system includes Infrared Sensing Module design, sensor clustering, node communication, system architecture and deployment. We conduct a series of experiments to evaluate the system performance which demonstrates the efficiency of our Moving Object Counting system.1.2 Wireless sensor networkWireless sensor network (WSN) is a wireless network which consists of a vast number of autonomous sensor nodes using sensors to monitor physical or environmental conditions, such as temperature,acoustics, vibration, pressure, motion or pollutants, at different locations. Each node in a sensor network is typically equipped with a wireless communications device, a small microcontroller, one or more sensors, and an energy source, usually a battery. The size of a single sensor node can be as large as a shoebox and can be as small as the size of a grain of dust, depending on different applications. The cost of sensor nodes is similarly variable, ranging from hundreds of dollars to a few cents, depending on the size of the sensor network and the complexity requirement of the individual sensor nodes. The size and cost are constrained by sensor nodes, therefore, have result in corresponding limitations on available inputs such as energy, memory, computational speed and bandwidth. The development of wireless sensor networks (WSN) was originally motivated by military applications such as battlefield surveillance. Due to the advancement in micro-electronic mechanical system technology (MEMS), embedded microprocessors, and wireless networking, the WSN can be benefited in many civilian application areas, including habitat monitoring, healthcare applications, and home automation.1.3 Types of Wireless Sensor NetworksWireless sensor network nodes are typically less complex than general-purpose operating systems both because of the special requirements of sensor network applications and the resource constraintsin sensor network hardware platforms. The operating system does not need to include support for user interfaces. Furthermore, the resource constraints in terms of memory and memory mapping hardware support make mechanisms such as virtual memory either unnecessary or impossible to implement. TinyOS [TinyOS] is possibly the first operating system specifically designed for wireless sensor networks. Unlike most other operating systems, TinyOS is based on an event-driven programming model instead of multithreading. TinyOS programs are composed into event handlers and tasks with run to completion-semantics. When an external event occurs, such as an incoming data packet or a sensor reading, TinyOS calls the appropriate event handler to handle the event. The TinyOS system and programs are both written in a special programming language called nesC [nesC] which is an extension to the C programming language. NesC is designed to detect race conditions between tasks and event handlers. There are also operating systems that allow programming in C. Examples of such operating systems include Contiki [Contiki], and MANTIS. Contiki is designed to support loading modules over the network and supports run-time loading of standard ELF files. The Contiki kernel is event-driven, like TinyOS, but the system supports multithreading on a per-application basis. Unlike the event-driven Contiki kernel, the MANTIS kernel is based on preemptive multithreading. With preemptive multithreading, applications do not needto explicitly yield the microprocessor to other processes.1.4 Introduction to Wireless Sensor NodeA sensor node, also known as a mote, is a node in a wireless sensor network that is capable of performing processing, gathering sensory information and communicating with other connected nodes in the network. Sensor node should be in small size, consuming extremely low energy, autonomous and operate unattended, and adaptive to the environment. As wireless sensor nodes are micro-electronic sensor device, they can only be equipped with a limited power source. The main components of a sensor node include sensors, microcontroller, transceiver, and power source. Sensors are hardware devices that can produce measurable response to a change in a physical condition such as light density and sound density. The continuous analog signal collected by the sensors is digitized by Analog-to-Digital converter. The digitized signal is then passed to controllers for further processing. Most of the theoretical work on WSNs considers Passive and Omni directional sensors. Passive and Omni directional sensors sense the data without actually manipulating the environment with active probing, while no notion of “direction” involved in these measurements. Commonly people deploy sensor for detecting heat (e.g. thermal sensor), light (e.g. infrared sensor), ultra sound (e.g. ultrasonic sensor), or electromagnetism (e.g. magnetic sensor). In practice, a sensor node can equip with more than one sensor.Microcontroller performs tasks, processes data and controls the operations of other components in the sensor node. The sensor node is responsible for the signal processing upon the detection of the physical events as needed or on demand. It handles the interruption from the transceiver. In addition, it deals with the internal behavior, such as application-specific computation.The function of both transmitter and receiver are combined into a single device know as transceivers that are used in sensor nodes. Transceivers allow a sensor node to exchange information between the neighboring sensors and the sink node (a central receiver). The operational states of a transceiver are Transmit, Receive, Idle and Sleep. Power is stored either in the batteries or the capacitors. Batteries are the main source of power supply for the sensor nodes. Two types of batteries used are chargeable and non-rechargeable. They are also classified according to electrochemical material used for electrode such as NiCd(nickel-cadmium), NiZn(nickel-zinc), Nimh(nickel metal hydride), and Lithium-Ion. Current sensors are developed which are able to renew their energy from solar to vibration energy. Two major power saving policies used areDynamic Power Management (DPM) and Dynamic V oltage Scaling (DVS). DPM takes care of shutting down parts of sensor node which are not currently used or active. DVS scheme varies the power levelsdepending on the non-deterministic workload. By varying the voltage along with the frequency, it is possible to obtain quadratic reduction in power consumption.1.5 ChallengesThe major challenges in the design and implementation of the wireless sensor network are mainly the energy limitation, hardware limitation and the area of coverage. Energy is the scarcest resource of WSN nodes, and it determines the lifetime of WSNs. WSNs are meant to be deployed in large numbers in various environments, including remote and hostile regions, with ad-hoc communications as key. For this reason, algorithms and protocols need to be lifetime maximization, robustness and fault tolerance and self-configuration. The challenge in hardware is to produce low cost and tiny sensor nodes. With respect to these objectives, current sensor nodes usually have limited computational capability and memory space. Consequently, the application software and algorithms in WSN should be well-optimized and condensed. In order to maximize the coverage area with a high stability and robustness of each signal node, multi-hop communication with low power consumption is preferred. Furthermore, to deal with the large network size, the designed protocol for a large scale WSN must be distributed.1.6 Research IssuesResearchers are interested in various areas of wireless sensornetwork, which include the design, implementation, and operation. These include hardware, software and middleware, which means primitives between the software and the hardware. As the WSNs are generally deployed in the resources-constrained environments with battery operated node, the researchers are mainly focus on the issues of energy optimization, coverage areas improvement, errors reduction, sensor network application, data security, sensor node mobility, and data packet routing algorithm among the sensors. In literature, a large group of researchers devoted a great amount of effort in the WSN. They focused in various areas, including physical property, sensor training, security through intelligent node cooperation, medium access, sensor coverage with random and deterministic placement, object locating and tracking, sensor location determination, addressing, energy efficient broadcasting and active scheduling, energy conserved routing, connectivity, data dissemination and gathering, sensor centric quality of routing, topology control and maintenance, etc.中文译文移动目标点数与红外传感器网络摘要无线传感器网络(WSN)已成为最近的一个研究热点。

参考资料原文：Capacitive sensors and the main features of the basic concepts: The measured volume of the machinery, such as displacement, pressure change is converted to the sensor capacitance. It is the sensitive part of the capacitor with variable parameters. Its most common form is composed of two parallel electrodes, a very inter-air as the medium of the capacitor, if the neglect edge effects, the capacitance for the capacitor plate ε A / δ, where εis a very inter-medium dielectric constant, A two electrode effective area covered by each other, δ is the distance between two electrodes. δ, A, εone of the three parameters will lead to the change in capacitance changes can be used for measurement. Therefore capacitive sensors can be divided into polar distance change type, change type size, media type three types of changes.Most from the changes in small type generally used to measure the linear displacement, or as a result of force, pressure, vibration caused by changes in polar distance (see capacitive pressure sensors). Change type size generally used to measure the angular displacement or linear displacement larger. Changes in media type commonly used in level measurement and a variety of media, temperature, density, humidity measurement. The advantage of the sensor capacitor structure is simple, inexpensive, high sensitivity,过载能力strong, good dynamic response and high temperature, radiation, vibration and other adverse conditions of strong adaptability and strong. The disadvantage is that there are non-linear output, parasitic capacitance and the distributed capacitance on the sensitivity and accuracy the impact of larger and more complex circuits, such as connectivity. Since the late 70s, with the development of integrated circuit technology, a packaging and micro-measuring instrument with capacitive sensors.This new type of distributed capacitance sensors can greatly reduce the impact to overcome the inherent drawbacks. Capacitive sensor is a very wide use, a great potential for development of the sensor.Capacitive sensor working principle：Capacitive sensor surface of the induction of two coaxial metal electrode composition, much like "open" capacitor electrode, the two electrodes form a capacitor, in series with the RC oscillation circuit. Power when connected, RC oscillator is notoscillating, when a goal of moving around electrical capacitor, the capacitor capacity increased, the oscillator to start oscillation. Circuit after the passage of the deal, will be two kinds of vibration and vibration signals into switching signals, which played a detection purpose of the existence of any objects. The sensor can detect metal objects, but also to detect non-metallic objects, metal objects can move away from the largest, non-metallic objects on the decision to move away from the dielectric constant material, the greater the dielectric constant materials, the availability of action the greater distance.Application of capacitive sensors：Capacitive sensor can be used to measure linear displacement, angular displacement, vibration amplitude, especially suitable for measuring high-frequency vibration amplitude, precision rotary axis accuracy, acceleration and other mechanical parameters. Pole-changing type of application from a smaller displacement in the measurement range to several hundred microns in 0.01m, precision can reach 0.01m, a resolution of up to 0.001m. Change type size larger displacement can be measured, for the zero-range a few millimeters to a few hundred mm, 0.5 percent better than the linear resolution of 0.01 ~ 0.001m. Capacitive angular displacement sensor point of view and the dynamic range to a few degrees, a resolution of about 0.1 "up to the stability of the zero angle-second, widely used in precision angle measurement, such as for high-precision gyroscopes and accelerometers tilting . capacitive measurement sensor can measure the peak amplitude for the 0 ~ 50m, a frequency of 10 ~ 2kHz, sensitivity is higher than 0.01m, non-linear error of less than 0.05m.Capacitive sensor can also be used to measure pressure, differential pressure, level, surface, composition content (such as oil, the water content of food), non-metallic coating materials, such as film thickness, dielectric measurements of humidity, density, thickness, etc., in the automatic detection and control systems are also often used as a location signal generator. Capacitive differential pressure sensor measuring range up to 50MPa, an accuracy of ± 0.25% ~ ± 0.5%. Capacitive sensor for measuring range of the thickness of a few hundred microns, resolution of up to 0.01m. Capacitive Proximity Switches can not only detect metal, but also can detect plastic, wood,paper, and other dielectric liquids, but can not achieve the ultra-small, the movement distance of about 10 ~ 20mm. Electrostatic capacitive level switch is widely used in detection is stored in the tank, hopper, such as the location of containers in a variety of objects of a mature product. When the capacitive sensor measuring metal surface conditions, from the size, vibration amplitude is often used very variable from unilateral type, when the measured object is a capacitor electrode, and the other electrode in the sensor inside. This type of sensor is a non-contact measurement, dynamic range is relatively small, about a few millimeters is about the precision of more than 0.1m, a resolution of 0.01 ~ 0.001m.译文：电容式传感器的基本概念及主要特点:把被测的机械量，如位移、压力等转换为电容量变化的传感器。

英文文献Semiconductor Gas SensorsResearch and development of gas sensors have shown great advances during the past decade. Semiconductor gas sensors mainly using SnO2 elements have been prevailing as detectors or alarms for leakage of LP (Liquefied Propane) gas and town gas, in addition to other applications. Gas sensors based on MOSFET, first proposed in 1975, have attracted interests of many researchers of many researchers, and have been developed to a point of commercialization as a hydrogen detectors. Solid electrolytes, represented by stabilized zirconia, have proven to be very promising sensors materials for oxygen, SO2,etc. This paper aims at reviewing briefly recent advances and trends in semiconductors gas sensors which were developed in a recent few years.Semiconductors gas sensors detect gases from a change in electrical resistance of an element made with a semi conductive metal oxide, typically SnO2 sensor. Although sensors utilizing γ-Fe2O3 or α-Fe2O3 have been put into practical use, SnO2 sensor still has an overwhelming market share. The production of semiconductor gas sensors has grown into a large industry: more than 5 million pieces were production in 1983.Most of them have been used in domestic homes as detectors or alarms for gas leakage. Field statistic has shown that gas alarms are quite effective to prevent an outbreak of gas leakage accident; the accident rate. Anyway semiconductors have been so far given much credit as an important device for home security and the installation rate of gas alarms is increasing year after year. Several years ago a problem arose about SnO2 gas sensor when it was adopted at places like kitchens of underground restaurants where various inflammable gases came out into atmosphere from fuels and cooking very frequently during working time. In such a dirty atmosphere, the gas sensor tended to given an alarm at an inflammable gas concentration which was lowered gradually with an elapse of operation time. It has been pointed out that the problem was contributed by electric resistance of the sensor element due to its sintering at unexpectedly high working temperatures. The problem has been solved after revisions were made to the sensor element.半导体气敏传感器在过去的十年间，气敏传感器的研究和发展已经有了很大的进步。

传感器技术外文文献及中文翻译Sensor technologyA sensor is a device which produces a signal in response to its detecting or measuring a property ,such as position , force , torque , pressure , temperature , humidity , speed , acceleration , or vibration .Traditionally ,sensors (such as actuators and switches )have been used to set limits on the performance of machines .Common examples are (a) stops on machine tools to restrict work table movements ,(b) pressure and temperature gages with automatics shut-off features , and (c) governors on engines to prevent excessive speed of operation . Sensor technology has become an important aspect of manufacturing processes and systems .It is essential for proper data acquisition and for the monitoring , communication , and computer control of machines and systems .Because they convert one quantity to another , sensors often are referred to as transducers .Analog sensors produce a signal , such as voltage ,which is proportional to the measured quantity .Digital sensors have numeric or digital outputs that can be transferred to computers directly .Analog-to-coverter(ADC) is available for interfacing analog sensors with computers .Classifications of SensorsSensors that are of interest in manufacturing may be classified generally as follows:Machanical sensors measure such as quantities aspositions ,shape ,velocity ,force ,torque , pressure , vibration , strain , andmass .Electrical sensors measure voltage , current , charge , and conductivity .Magnetic sensors measure magnetic field ,flux , and permeablity .Thermal sensors measure temperature , flux ,conductivity , and special heat .Other types are acoustic , ultrasonic , chemical , optical , radiation ,laser ,and fiber-optic .Depending on its application , a sensor may consist of metallic , nonmetallic , organic , or inorganic materials , as well as fluids ,gases ,plasmas , or semiconductors .Using the special characteristics of these materials , sensors covert the quantity or property measured to analog or digital output. The operation of an ordinary mercury thermometer , for example , is based on the difference between the thermal expansion of mercury and that of glass.Similarly , a machine part , a physical obstruction , or barrier in a space can be detected by breaking the beam of light when sensed by a photoelectric cell . A proximity sensor ( which senses and measures the distance between it and an object or a moving member of a machine ) can be based on acoustics , magnetism , capacitance , or optics . Other actuators contact the object and take appropriate action ( usually by electromechanical means ) . Sensors are essential to the conduct of intelligent robots , and are being developed with capabilities that resemble those of humans ( smart sensors , see the following ).This is America, the development of such a surgery Lin Bai an example,through the screen, through a remote control operator to control another manipulator, through the realization of the right abdominal surgery A few years ago our country the exhibition, the United States has been successful in achieving the right to the heart valve surgery and bypass surgery. This robot has in the area, caused a great sensation, but also, AESOP's surgical robot, In fact, it through some equipment to some of the lesions inspections, through a manipulator can be achieved on some parts of the operation Also including remotely operated manipulator, and many doctors are able to participate in the robot under surgery Robot doctor to include doctors with pliers, tweezers or a knife to replace the nurses, while lighting automatically to the doctor's movements linked, the doctor hands off, lighting went off, This is very good, a doctor's assistant.Tactile sensing is the continuous of variable contact forces , commonly by an array of sensors . Such a system is capable of performing within an arbitrary three-dimensional space .has gradually shifted from manufacturing tonon-manufacturing and service industries, we are talking about the car manufacturer belonging to the manufacturing industry, However, the services sector including cleaning, refueling, rescue, rescue, relief, etc. These belong to the non-manufacturing industries and service industries, so here is compared with the industrial robot, it is a very important difference. It is primarily a mobile platform, it can move to sports, there are some arms operate, also installed some as a force sensor and visual sensors, ultrasonic ranging sensors, etc. It’s surrounding environment for the conduct of identification, to determine its campaign to complete some work, this is service robot’s one of the basic characteristicsIn visual sensing (machine vision , computer vision ) , cameral optically sense the presence and shape of the object . A microprocessor then processes the image ( usually in less than one second ) , the image is measured , and the measurements are digitized ( image recognition ) .Machine vision is suitable particularly for inaccessible parts , in hostile manufacturing environments , for measuring a large number of small features , and in situations where physics contact with the part may cause damage .Small sensors have the capability to perform a logic function , to conduct two-way communication , and to make a decisions and take appropriate actions . The necessary input and the knowledge required to make a decision can be built into a smart sensor . For example , a computer chip with sensors can be programmed to turn a machine tool off when a cutting tool fails . Likewise , a smart sensor can stop a mobile robot or a robot arm from accidentally coming in contact with an object or people by using quantities such as distance , heat , and noise .Sensor fusion . Sensor fusion basically involves the integration of multiple sensors in such a manner where the individual data from each of the sensors ( such as force , vibration , temperature , and dimensions ) are combined to provide a higher level of information and reliability . A common application ofsensor fusion occurs when someone drinks a cup of hot coffee . Although we take such a quotidian event for granted ,it readily can be seen that this process involves data input from the person's eyes , lips , tongue , and hands .Through our basic senses of sight , hearing , smell , taste , and touch , there is real-time monitoring of relative movements , positions , and temperatures . Thus if the coffee is too hot , the hand movement of the cup toward the lip is controlled and adjusted accordingly .The earliest applications of sensor fusion were in robot movement control , missile flight tracking , and similar military applications . Primarily because these activities involve movements that mimic human behavior . Another example of sensor fusion is a machine operation in which a set of different but integrated sensors monitors (a) the dimensions and surface finish of workpiece , (b) tool forces , vibrations ,and wear ,(c) the temperature in various regions of the tool-workpiece system , and (d) the spindle power .An important aspect in sensor fusion is sensor validation : the failure of one particular sensor is detected so that the control system maintains high reliability . For this application ,the receiving of redundant data from different sensors is essential . It can be seen that the receiving , integrating of all data from various sensors can be a complex problem .With advances in sensor size , quality , and technology and continued developments in computer-control systems , artificial neural networks , sensor fusion has become practical and available at low cost .Movement is relatively independent of the number of components, the equivalent of our body, waist is a rotary degree of freedom We have to be able to hold his arm, Arm can be bent, then this three degrees of freedom, Meanwhile there is a wrist posture adjustment to the use of the three autonomy, the general robot has six degrees of freedom. We will be able to space the three locations, three postures, the robot fully achieved, and of course we have less than six degrees of freedom Fiber-optic sensors are being developed for gas-turbine engines . These sensors will be installed in critical locations and will monitor the conditions inside the engine , such as temperature , pressure , and flow of gas . Continuous monitoring of the signals from thes sensors will help detect possible engine problems and also provide the necessary data for improving the efficiency of the engines .传感器技术传感器一种通过检测某一参数而产生信号的装置。

stage which has essential to enhance.One of in which most representative core components is the sensor.First, the automobile electron holds controls mentions with the safety systemFirst, the automobile electron holds controls mentions our country automobile industry growth with the safety system to be in the last few years rapid, the development tendency is very fierce.Therefore commented appeared some expert's forecast: The automobile industry has the possibility to surpass the IT industry, becomes one of Chinese national economymost important pillar industries.Actually, the automobile industry growth will certainly to contain with the automobile industry correlation IT industry growth.For example, although at present only occupies about 10%-15% in our country steam product neutron productand the technical price value content, but the overseas automobile neutron product and the technical value content approximately is equally 22%, in the upscale passenger vehicle the automobile electron has accounted for above 30%, moreover this proportion in, unceasingly the fast growth, anticipated very quick will also achieve 50%.The electronic information technology already became the new generation of automobile development direction the leading factor, the automobile (vehicle) the power performance, manoeuvring could, the safety performance and the comfortable performance and so on each aspect improvement and raisehigh, all will rely on the mechanical system and the structure and the electronic products, the information technology perfect union.The automobile engineering expert pointed out that,The electronic technology development has caused the automobile product the concept to have the deep transformation.This also is the recent electronic information industrial field to one of automobile electron unprecedented attentionreasons.But, must point out, except some vehicles in the sound, the video frequency equipment, Che Yong corresponds, the guidance system, as well as the vehicle carries vehicles and so on in work system, network system the electronic installation essence changes few outside .The modern automobile electron from the electronic primary device which applies (including sensor, actuator, micro electric circuit and so on) to the vehicle in the electronic system construction entered one the new stage which has essential to enhance.One of in which most representative core components is the intelligent sensor (intelligent actuator, intelligence changes delivers).In fact, the automobile electron has already

sends out the best ignition opportunity the instruction.This engine fuel injection system and the ignition integrated control systemalso may with combinations and so on exhaust gas discharge supervisory system and starting system, constructs Cheng Keshi the motor car engine power and the torque maximization, but simultaneously fuel oil consumption and exhaust gas discharge minimizing intelligent system.Also may lift a safe driving aspect the example, stemming from steady, safe driving need, only aims at four wheels to hold controls, and installed the braking besides the application massive pressure transmitter to guard against generally hugs installs (ABS) deadly, many passenger vehicles, including the domestically produced vehicle, additionally built electronic power distribution system (EBD), ABS+EBD to be possible time the maximum limit safeguard sleet weather driving stability.Presently in, the domestic and foreign some automobiles further has installed emergency brake servosystem (EBA), this system when has the emergency case, the automatic detection driver steps on when the brake pedal the speed and dynamics, and sentence break the emergency brake dynamics is whether enough, if the need, can increase the braking force automatically.The EBA automatic control movement must (e.g. 1/1000000 seconds levels) in complete in the extremely short time.This system can cause the 200km/h high speed travel vehicles the brake skidding distance to reduce the extremely precious more than 20 rice.Also has in view of the wheel monitors each wheel to be opposite separately in the vehicle speed rotational speed, then matches the power for each wheel balance minute, guaranteed each turn has good under the bad road surface condition stresses ability balanced “the electronic force of traction control” the (ETC) system and so on.Two examples enumerates which from above may see clearly, automobile development to automobile electron some basic requests:1. electrons hold control the system the movement to have fast, to be correct, to be reliable.The sensor (+ recuperates electric circuit) + the microprocessor, then (+ power enlargement electric circuit) + the actuator technical way already no longer could satisfy the modern automobile again through the microprocessor the request, needed through the hardware integration, the direct exchange data and the simplification electric circuit, and enhances the intellectualized degree to guarantee the control unit movement the accuracy, the reliability and the timeliness.2. present nearly all automobile mechanism part all already electronic installation control, but in the automobile chassis space is limited, the component system space is extremely limited.The ideal situation is certainly, the electronic control unit should and the control portion close union, is formed a whole.Therefore the component and the electric circuit microminiaturization, the integration may not avoid path.3. electronic control unit must have the enough intellectualized degree.Take the security aerocyst as the example, it in the critical moment must have to be able prompt, the instant to open correctly, but in the extremely majority time the aerocyst is place in the standby condition, therefore security aerocyst ECU must have self-checking, from the maintenance ability, confirmed unceasingly the aerocyst system may operate normally the reliability, guarantees the movement “surefire”.4. automobile each kind of function parts all have respective movement, hold control the characteristic, and, speaking of the electronic products, mostly is in the very severe movement environment, moreover various.Such as time active status high temperature, time static standby low temperature,highly concentrated oil steam and activeness (toxicity) gas, as well as high speed movement and high strength impact and vibration and so on.Therefore, the electronic primary device and the electric circuit musthave to have high stable, the anti-environment and auto-adapted, from compensation adjustment ability.5. is similarly important with the above request, even sometimes is the crucial condition is, the automobile electronic control unit uses the electronic primary device, the module must have to be able the large-scale industry production, and can cost reduction to the degree which may accept.A slightly sensor and the intelligent sensor is this aspect model.Not only for example the intelligence acceleration instrument, it can satisfy the modern automobile well each need, moreover because may in the integrated circuit standard silicon craft on-line volume production, the production cost be low (several US dollars to several or several dozens US dollars), therefore had found own biggest application market in the automobile industry, counter- has come also powerfully to promote the automobile industry electronic informationization.Two sensors: The micro sensor and the integrated circuit fuse new generation of electronic deviceThe micro sensor, the intelligent sensor is the emerging technology which only then starts to develop rapidly in recent years.The technical name at present uses which in our country's publication magazine quite is also ambiguous, still generally called it the sensor, or induces ambiguously into the automobile semiconductor device, also has the intelligent sensor (or intelligent actuator, intelligent transmitting instrument) and the micro systemMEMS and so on has all belonged to MEMS (microcomputer electrical system series) under the name.Here introduces in the current some European and American monograph the commonly used technical noun definition and the technical connotation.Intelligent sensor and modern automobile electronFirst must explain, in the overwhelming majority situation, the sensor which in this article size title and the full text said has made a general reference actually three big kind of components: Transforms the electromagnetics signal output the non-electricity input parameter the sensor; Transforms the non-electricity parameter output the electricity signal the actuator; As well as both can serve as the sensor and to be able to serve as the actuator many,in which is transforms one kind of electromagnetics parameter form Cheng Ling one kind of electromagnetics parameter shape output the transmitting instrumentMeant that, about the micro sensor, the intelligent sensor technical characteristic may expand analogizes the micro actuator, the micro transmitting instrument - sensor (or execution, either transmitting instrument) in the physical criterion to have a physical size to be equal to or to be smaller than at least an Asian millimeter magnitude.The micro sensor is not a product which traditional sensor simple physics reduces, but is based on partly leads the body processing technology the new generation of component:Sometimes therefore also is called the silicon to pass on the feeling.May use the similar definition and the technical characteristic analogy describes the micro actuator and the micro transmitting instrument.It is composed by two chips, one has from the examination ability accelerometer unit (micro acceleration instrument), together is in addition the micro sensor and the microprocessor (MCU) connection electric circuit and MCU.This is one kind compared the early time (around 1996), but already quite practical component, available in automobile self-braking and suspension system, because and the micro accelerometer had the self-checking ability Also available in security aerocyst.From this time on in the example may see clearly, not only the micro sensor superiority is the volume reduction, lies in can conveniently and the integrated circuit combination and the scale production.Should refer, uses this kind oftwo piece of solution to be possible to reduce the design cycle, reduces the development preliminary small batch trial production the cost.But to the practical application and the market, the single chip solution may take obviously, the production cost is lower, the application value is higher.The sensor (Smart Sensor), the intelligent actuator and the intelligent transmitting instrument - micro sensor (or micro actuator, either micro transmitting instrument) and its part or processes the component, the processing electric circuit integration completely on a chip component (e.g. the above micro accelerometer single chip solution).Therefore the intelligent sensor has certain biological modelling ability, like fuzzy logic operation, initiative distinction environment, automatic accent entire and compensation adaptation environment abilityFrom diagnosis, from maintenance and so on.Obviously, produces andreduces the production cost stemming from the scale the request, the intelligent sensor design concept, the choice of material and the production craft musthave to have as far as po ssible and the integrated circuit standard silicon plane craft is consistent.May throw in front of the piece in the normal technical process, either in flow, after either the craft completes increases some special need the working procedure, but should not too be many.In a seal, a micro mechanical pressure transmitter and simulation user connection, 8 mold - number switch (SAR), microprocessor (Motorola 69HC08), memory and serial interface (SPI) and so on integrations on a chip.Its front end silicon pressure transmitter uses the body silicon tiny processing technology manufacture.The preparation silicon pressure transmitter working procedure already may arrange in to integrate the CMOS electric circuit craft flows in front of the regulation, also may in afterThis kind of intelligence pressure transmitter technology and market all already mature, has widely used in all kinds of pressure survey and the control unit which the automobile (vehicle) needs, such as in front of each kind of air gage, spray nozzle collection class cavity pressure, waste gas exhaust pipe, fuel oil, tire, hydraulic gear and so on.The intelligence pressure transmitter application is very broad, does not limit to the automobile industry.At present, the production intelligence pressure transmitter manufacturer many, the market commodity variety also very have been many, already appeared the keen competition.The result is the intelligence pressure transmitter volume getting smaller, needs outside along with it control unit to encircle the connector and the discrete component are more and more few, but the function and the performance more and more are actually strong, moreover the production cost reduces very quickly (the present is approximately several US dollars).While convenient needs said, in some Chinese material, in particular in some product tendentious material, generally (either device) and Intelligent sensor (or device) all callsSmart Sensor it the intelligent sensor,But these only can respond the environmental variation simply, makes some corresponding compensations, the adjustment active status, specially does not need to integrate placethe principle component, its knowledge rank too is low, should not belong to the intelligent component category generally.Believed the majority readers can contact frequently, most drew close to the life the intelligent sensor possibly to have to be uses in the camera, the digital camera, the camera, in the handset photograph CCD image sensor. This is a situation which one kind of non-intelligence sensor not is, because in the CCD array each silicon unit transforms by the light the electrical signalis extremely weak, must direct and prompt shifting checks, and processes transforms the standard the imageform signal.Also has complex someThe electron and optics which in, on the upscale long focus (IOX) optics enlargement numerical code camera and the camera equips guard against shake the system, specially in high end product trueoptics guard against shake the system.Its core is the two axle to either 3 axial micro accelerometers or the micro gyroscope, monitors the fuselage through it the vibration, and converts the lens each axial displacement quantity, then actuates in the lensthe invariable angle lens migration, makes the optical system the refraction path of rays to maintain stably.Micro system (Microsystem) and MEMS (microcomputer electrical system series) - by the micro sensor, microelectronics electric circuit (signal processing, control circuit, correspondence meets and so on) and the micro actuator constitutes a three level of levelassociation system, the integration calls it on a chip component the micro system.If has the mechanical linkage or the machinery implementing agency and so on the micro mechanical part instrument calls it MEMS.MEMS chip left side gives prepares the basic processing technology which the MEMS chip needs.Its right flank enumerates for the main application domain.Very obvious, the MEMS best solution also is selects with the silicon laborskill compatible material and the physical effect, the design idea and the technical process, also namely uses the method which the conventional standard the CMOS craft and two-dimensional, the three dimensional tiny processing technology unifies, in which also includes the micro mechanicalstructural element the manufacture.The micro sensor logical development extends is the intelligent sensor, the intelligent sensor extends is naturally the micro system and the MEMS, MEMS further development is can receive, the resolution outside signal and the instructionindependently, then can independent Now, develops successful, and had the commercial product MEMS variety already many, covering shown in Figure 4 each big domain.In which of one of including entire smooth correspondence and entire light computer key components two-dimensional, three dimensional MEMS light switch.Through control chip on micro reflector array, realization light input/output overlapping interconnection.This is the present entire light exchange technology mature preferred plan.In the market may buy the MEMS light switch has amounted to1296 groups, the switch switching time is approximately 20ms.The micro machinery (also is called a nanometer machinery) then still was at the development experimental stage, but had many very important laboratory product emergence, like famous nanometer electrical machinery, micro insect, micro helicopter and submarine and so on.The technical industrial field believed generally that, they will develop successful and the investment practical application have the profound influence to the industrial technology and the quality of life.附录2传感器与现代汽车电子现代汽车电子从所应用的电子元器件到车内电子系统的架构均已进入了一个有本质性提高的新阶段。

一种基于数字信号处理器的温度补偿测量系统光纤氧气传感器C. Stehning and G. HolstMax-Planck-Institute for Marine Microbiology, Celsiusstr. 1,28359 Bremen, Germany摘要光纤传感器microoptodes提供了新的信号处理方法，所有信号的产生和处理完全基于一个快速，低成本的数字信号处理器。

这个新技术实现了新的功能，如可以同时多频测量，以解决不同的发光信号中的分析参数。

举个例子，一个混合的传感器可以被同时应用到测量温度和氧气浓度，温度信息被用来补偿温度效应对氧测量的影响。

同时还有一个进一步的好处，最近的改进指标化学和纤维尖端的制备也会产生一个发光信号电平，可以检测出一个足够高的发光信号电平而不是一个普通的光电二极管的光电倍增管。

如果需要一个高空间分辨率的测量环境，则需要采用微电极或光纤氧气传感器。

氧含量的测量是基于荧光寿命这个指标，显示器特定的背景荧光叶绿素等物质会对反应敏感的测量器材有不小的影响。

为了克服这些影响，对于抗扰的讨论就显得极其重要。

这就需要一个多频分析的测量系统，以解决衰减时间内的发光信号。

此外，配备混合传感器用以同时检测多个分析参数。

在实际应用，它通常可以假设为一个组件不能被氧气猝灭（K 2 = 0）。
