Abstract:
An exhaust gas detection assembly, comprising a sensing system comprising a wide-band light source and a detector, a probe configured for mounting in a port of a component of an engine exhaust system, and a fiber optic bundle connected between the sensing system and the probe to carry source light from the light source to the probe and reflected light from the probe to the detector, wherein the detector comprises a filter that passes reflected light received from the probe in a wavelength range corresponding to a wavelength range affected by the presence of a type of gas molecules in the probe.

Claim (Index 22):
The method of  claim 21 , wherein the gas detection assembly comprises a plurality of probes and wherein the method further comprises:\n determining that an intensity reduction of the reference light wavelength received from a first probe included in the plurality of probes is above a predetermined threshold; determining if each of the other probes included in the plurality of probes experience an intensity reduction of the reference light wavelength corresponding to the first probe; and in response to determining that none of the other probes included in the plurality of probes experience the intensity reduction in their reference light wavelength corresponding to the first probe, determining that the first probe has malfunctioned.
