Sumario:Locating gas concentration changes in widespread locations can be conducive to environmental atmospheric detection, gas emissions monitoring, production process control, etc. A time domain multiplexed dual-comb system for segment-resolved gas concentration measurement is reported in this work. Both absorption spectra and path lengths for multiple path-segments in a target path can be derived from the time domain separated interferograms and then the equivalent gas concentrations in each segment can be retrieved separately. A benchtop experiment aiming at a target path with three path-segments of different gases has been demonstrated. The relative deviation of gas concentration retrieval is 1.08% in 1 s. Besides, additional numerical simulations prove that the crosstalk between the interference signals affects the spectrum analysis by no more than 0.1% for a kilometer-long atmospheric absorption detection. Therefore, achieving a gridded measurement of regional gas concentration in the open air can be foreseen using this method.
