Concentration measurement apparatus comprising an infrared effect detection unit, a temperature measurement unit, and a signal processing unit, and concentration measurement method

Abstract

Provided is a concentration measurement apparatus for measuring a concentration of a measurement object using an infrared ray, the concentration measurement apparatus including a signal acquisition unit configured to acquire a detection signal, a temperature information acquisition unit configured to acquire temperature information, a correction unit configured to output a correction signal obtained by correcting a temperature dependency of the detection signal based on the temperature information, and a calculation unit configured to calculate the concentration of the measurement object according to the correction signal using calibration curve data at a predetermined reference temperature for calculating the concentration of the measurement object, in which the correction unit is configured to output the correction signal obtained by performing linear correction of the detection signal using, among predetermined correction parameters different for three or more respective temperature segments, the correction parameter in a temperature segment corresponding to the temperature information.
