Abstract
Open-chamber smoke detector and detection method. An elecromagnetic emitter emits radiation, a sensor receives the signal after it has travelled through the monitored area and analyses it to determine whether smoke is present by comparison with a reference signal representative of a smoke plume. An alarm condition is signaled when an evolution in the obtained data corresponds to the reference profile within a threshold amount.
