Real-Time Data Collection Programs and Source Code for a Commercial Passive FTIR Remote Sensor

Abstract

Computer programs for data collection and analysis of interferograms from a commercial Fourier Transform Infrared sensor were developed. Programs written in C language for an IBM PC using the DOS operating system allow one to collect and display data in a variety of formats useful for the environmental monitoring of vapor clouds. Software is described that enables the user to execute signal processing algorithms for the real-time analysis of interferograms. The programs collect data from the commercial interferometer and detect a vapor species using digital filters and pattern recognition methods. Source code and documentation describing all program functions are provided. Fourier Transform Infrared, Infrared, Infrared background suppression, FTIR, Passive infrared software
