Abstract
A gas sensor, and a method for measuring the concentrations of a plurality of target components in a gas to be measured are disclosed. The gas sensor is provided with: a specific component measurement means which measures the concentration of a specific component in a measurement chamber; a preliminary oxygen concentration control means which controls the oxygen concentration in a preliminary adjustment chamber; a drive control means which controls the driving and stopping of the preliminary oxygen concentration control means; and a target component acquisition means which, on the basis of the difference between sensor outputs from the specific component measurement means when the preliminary oxygen concentration control means is being driven and when the preliminary oxygen concentration control means is stopped, and one of the respective sensor outputs, acquires the concentrations of a first target component and a second target component.
