The present invention is directed to reducing non-fire alarms by distinguishing between smoke caused by an actual fire and non-fire smoke generated in daily life when an event suspected to be a fire occurs. The present invention provides an apparatus and method for determining whether a fire occurs using a smoke detector, which includes a light emitter for generating multiple wavelengths, a light receiver configured to detect light scattered by particles of smoke, and a fire determiner for checking whether the strength of a signal of the detected scattered light exceeds a threshold and generating an alarm, to use characteristics of multiple wavelengths in a photoelectric fire detection apparatus. The fire determiner calculates normalized values by normalizing measured values for the scattered light, and calculates a singular value from the normalized values as a criterion for determining whether the smoke is caused by a fire or a non-fire.

The disclosure relates to a non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) gas sensor which detects the concentration of gas with a simple structure and method by manufacturing an optical waveguide with a gas-permeable polymer material instead of a conventional cavity or chamber type. An optical signal travels through the optical waveguide of gas-permeable polymer by total internal reflection, and the gas naturally penetrates the optical waveguide without the use of separate inlet and outlet openings, so that the optical signal and gas particles come into contact with each other within the optical waveguide. Since the optical signal detected by a photodetector at the other end of the optical waveguide after traveling while contacting the gas particles has properties changed according to the concentration of the gas which they have contacted in the optical waveguide, it is possible to measure the concentration of a specific gas from the detected optical signal.
