| Summary: | In addition to being sensitive to humidity, humidity sensors with moisture sensitive elements are also sensitive to ambient temperature. The fusion of temperature and humidity data is an effective way to improve the accuracy of humidity sensors. In view of the problem of insufficient adaptive ability and poor universality in the current compensation algorithm, a piecewise processing of measured error at different temperatures by using multiple linear regression is proposed in this paper. The least squares method and back propagation (BP) neural network improved by a genetic simulated annealing algorithm (GSA-BP) were used to compensate the measured humidity data of different temperature ranges. The efficiency of the GSA-BP algorithm was tested, and the compensation function model was established. The compensation accuracy was also compared with the accuracies obtained by other methods. The experimental results show that the adaptive segmentation compensation method can significantly improve the measured error of the humidity sensor over a wide temperature range. |
