Динамика неидеального полусферического волнового твердотельного гироскопа

Abstract

The parametric electrode is normally used in the hemispherical resonator gyroscopes, operating in the whole angle regime, for maintaining amplitudes of vibratory patterns. It is well known that owing to the variation of the gap between the resonator and parametric electrode, a drift of the vibrating patternis obtained. This drift is similar to the gyro drift stipulated by the Q-factor imperfections and substantially decreases the quality of the hemispherical resonator gyroscope. The pre- sent paper considers the methods of compensation of these drifts by means of the special control of the vibrating pattern by the sectioned parametric electrode. Compensation of the drifts is achieved through amplitudes of voltage and phase manipulations at the sectioned parametric electrodes. The side effect of this control which consists of the spurious splitting of the frequencies of the vibrating pattern is discussed.
